What we find in Tingalpa

You are welcome to supply your own tapware. We will fit what you have bought and tell you honestly beforehand if it will not suit the existing connections, rather than discovering it halfway through.

Tingalpa in detail

The presence of Bulimba Creek matters for drainage here: when it runs high, the stormwater behind it has nowhere to discharge.

Getting access in Tingalpa

On Tingalpa's larger blocks we can usually get the van close. What slows a job here is the length of pipe between the house and the main, not getting through the gate.

Getting to Tingalpa

We are there most days, and we would rather give you an accurate time than an optimistic one. Hemmant, Wynnum West, Wakerley and Gumdale are all on our regular runs, so neighbouring streets get the same response.

Before you call us

Check the meter with every tap closed. If the dial or the smallest digit is still turning, water is going somewhere it should not, and that is worth telling us before we arrive. It is the single most reliable test there is. The single most useful thing you can do before calling is find your water meter and the tap beside it. On most properties it is at the front boundary, sometimes under a hinged cover. Knowing where it is, and being able to turn it, is what stops a leak becoming a floor replacement.

What happens when we arrive

The sequence is test, isolate, locate, expose, repair, pressure test. The pressure test at the end is not optional; a repair that has not been tested under pressure is a repair you hear about again.

After the job

Where preventive work would genuinely save you money, we will say so and give you a price. Where it would not, we will say that too.

How we quote

Pricing on Tingalpa jobs is settled before the work begins. We do not revise a quote mid-job without talking to you first, and you decide what happens next.

What affects the price

Supplying your own tapware is fine and changes the quote accordingly. We will tell you before the day if what you have bought will not suit the existing connections. Detection and repair are usually the same visit, and the repair is quoted once the fault is located rather than estimated in advance. Guessing at a price before knowing where the leak is does neither of us any favours.

How we do it

Every install is tested under pressure and left running to confirm it holds.

Preventive work in Tingalpa

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

Administratively, Tingalpa belongs to the Doboy ward - relevant whenever a job reaches past the property boundary.

Frequently asked questions

A straightforward swap is usually under an hour per fitting. Older homes sometimes need the connections adapted, which takes longer and we will say so first.

Only if the old ones were restricting flow. If the pressure problem is upstream, new tapware will not fix it, and we will say so before you spend the money.

Yes. We will install tapware you have bought, and we will tell you honestly if what you have chosen will not suit the existing connections - before we start rather than halfway through.

They are worth having. An isolation valve lets you shut off one fixture instead of the whole house, which turns a future repair into a much smaller job.

We provide the report, photographs and cause-of-damage detail insurers ask for. What the policy covers is between you and them, but the documentation will not be the holdup.

Wipes that claim to be flushable, and too much paper at once. Both are fixable; a toilet that blocks repeatedly usually has something structural behind it.

Anything that can damage the property or put someone at risk: a burst pipe, a sewage overflow, a gas leak, or no water at all. Those get priority over scheduled work.
