What we find in Cornubia

The second and third bathrooms on a large property are where the neglected problems live.

Cornubia in detail

With California Creek nearby, stormwater behaves differently street to street here - the blocks closest to it are the ones that back up first.

Getting access in Cornubia

Cornubia access is usually simple. Mention the gate, the dog and the meter location and we will be set.

Getting to Cornubia

We work Mount Cotton, Carbrook, Eagleby and Loganholme as well, and treat a job on the edge of Cornubia the same as one in the middle of it.

Before you call us

A quick look outside helps. Find the inspection opening - usually a capped pipe at ground level near the boundary - and tell us whether you can see it and whether it is clear. If we can access it, the job is quicker and we are less likely to need to work inside. If more than one fixture is affected, do not keep using the others. Water you put down a sink has to leave somewhere, and with the main line blocked it will find the lowest opening in the house. Turning off the washing machine mid-cycle is worth doing.

What happens when we arrive

We work from the outside in. It keeps the mess outside, it gets to the cause faster, and it means your bathroom is not a worksite while we diagnose.

After the job

The warranty position on newer fittings is often still live, and we will tell you if something should be going back to the manufacturer rather than being paid for.

How we quote

Every Cornubia job is quoted up front. If opening something up reveals a bigger problem, we stop and explain the options rather than pressing on and adding it to the bill.

What affects the price

Depth and length matter. A blockage two metres from the fixture is a different job from one twenty-five metres out near the connection, and the quote reflects the equipment and the time rather than a flat rate. Access drives the price more than people expect. An inspection opening at the boundary that we can lift and work from keeps a drain job short. One that has been paved over, built on or never installed adds time before any clearing starts.

How we do it

We test the waste separately from the membrane. A great many suspected waterproofing failures turn out to be a failed shower waste.

Preventive work in Cornubia

In Cornubia, clearing gutters, downpipes and stormwater pits ahead of storm season is cheap insurance. California Creek only takes what reaches it.

Approvals and compliance

Plumbing in Cornubia is approved through Logan City Council under the Queensland Plumbing and Wastewater Code. We handle the lodgement.

Frequently asked questions

Usually a dry or partially blocked trap letting sewer gas through, or build-up in the waste. Both are quick to resolve.

Often. Wastes, mixers, cartridges and screen seals are all repaired without touching the tiling. Only a failed membrane requires more.

We block the waste and hold water in the shower base to see whether it escapes. It distinguishes a failed waste from a failed membrane, which are very different repairs.

Usually hair and soap build-up in the waste, sometimes a sag or blockage further down the line. If clearing the waste does not fix it, the problem is past the trap and needs a camera.

Notifiable work has to be lodged with Logan City Council, and anything connecting to sewer or stormwater needs approval first. We handle that paperwork as part of the job.

Emergency work in Cornubia is not limited to business hours. Call the number on this page and tell us what is happening; we will tell you straight away whether it can wait until morning.

Usually. We clear and camera first, and excavation only happens when the pipe itself has failed. You see the footage before we recommend anything.
