About Us

We're a small family business based in Buderim, and we've always tried to keep things pretty simple: solid workmanship, clear communication, and treating people well. A lot of our work comes from repeat clients, builders and word of mouth, which means a lot to us.

Who you'll be dealing with

We keep the team small and hands-on, with Chris closely involved in all the work we take on. That means clear communication, good organisation and people who understand the job from start to finish.

Chris Bourke

I enjoy the mix of hands-on work and problem-solving that plumbing brings. Some jobs are straightforward; others need more planning and coordination. Outside of plumbing, I definitely enjoy the ocean and a bit of the outdoors when I'm not trying to raise a couple of girls with my partner.

Blake

Blake's friendly, easy to deal with and already showing plenty of promise as a future tradesman. Outside of plumbing, he's usually hanging with friends, playing the drums or heavily involved in Oztag.

What we stand for

Quality

Big job or small, the details matter to us: the right parts for the job, fitted properly, and tested before we call it finished. That goes for a single tap washer as much as a whole new bathroom.

Communication

We tell you what we're going to do before we do it: what the job needs, what it will cost and which day we'll be there. Building or renovating? We book the rough-in and the fit-off around your builder's program, so they happen when the site is ready.

Reputation

We want builders and homeowners to trust us and to have us back. It's why you get a written quote before we start, and why we clean up before we go.

Creativity and fun

On a renovation there's often more than one way to run the pipes or fit a fixture where you want it. We'll talk you through the options and help you pick the one that suits your plans and your budget. We take the work seriously, and we like having a laugh along the way.

Next Level Aftercare

Next Level Aftercare is our name for the part of the job that comes after the install. Before we leave, we make sure you know what's been put in, how it works and how to look after it.

What we go through with you

  • How it worksWhat the system does day to day, the settings that matter, and how to tell when something isn't right.
  • How to look after itWhat it needs and how often, like changing the cartridges on a water filter or the regular service on a hot water system.
  • What the warranty coversThe manufacturer's warranty, how long it runs, and anything that could void it. Some filter warranties only hold if you use the maker's own cartridges, and some hot water warranties depend on the system being serviced the way the maker says. It's better to know that on the day it goes in than when you need to make a claim.
  • Who to ringIf you've got a question about it later, ring us. You're talking to the people who installed it.

Why we do it

If we'd just paid a local plumber for a new hot water system or filter, we'd want to know how it works, how to keep it running and who to call about it. So that's what we give you.

Our licence and membership

  • QBCC licence 15305437You can look us up on the QBCC online licence search before you book.
  • Master Plumbers Association of QueenslandWe're members of the plumbing industry association for Queensland.
  • Gas fittingA plumbing licence doesn't cover gas work in Queensland. That needs its own gas fitting licence, and Chris holds both.

The work we take on

We plumb for homeowners, for builders on new homes and renovations, and for businesses fitting out offices, shops, cafes and medical rooms.

We're based in Buderim and cover the Coast from Caloundra up to Noosa Heads.

Questions people ask about us

Will an apprentice be doing my job?

Blake does his apprenticeship on our jobs, working next to a licensed plumber. In Queensland an apprentice has to be directly supervised by a licensed plumber who is responsible for the work. On our jobs, that's Chris.

Do you work after hours or on weekends?

Our hours are Monday to Friday, 7:30am to 4:30pm. You can send the quote form any time, day or night, and we'll ring you during those hours to talk about the job.

Do you do small jobs, or only big ones?

We do both. A new tap, a running toilet or a single leak is as much our work as a bathroom renovation or a shop fit-out. Tell us what it is when you ring, and we'll book a time to come and have a look at it for you.
