Where are you based in Buderim?

We're based in Buderim, but we don't run a shopfront, so there's no counter to walk up to. We come to your place instead. Ring 0413 291 781 or send the quote form, tell us what's going on and which street you're in, and we'll book a time to come and look.

Small jobs are fine. If you've got a dripping tap now and a hot water system you're keeping an eye on, mention both when you ring, so we can look at the two of them on the same trip.

Stormwater and older pipes in Buderim

Where the rain goes on a sloping block

A lot of Buderim sits on a slope, and on a sloping block the rain off your roof has to run somewhere lower. Downpipes feed underground stormwater pipes. Those run out to the kerb or, on a block that falls away from the street, often to a pipe along the back boundary.

When one of those lines blocks or breaks, the water backs up. You'll see a downpipe overflowing at the bottom in heavy rain, water pooling against the house, or a wet spot that shows up in the same spot every storm. We clear the line, and if it keeps happening we put a camera down it to find the break or the tree roots, then fix that section.

Getting a hot water system in and out

If your hot water system sits down a steep side path, under the house or behind a retaining wall, tell us when you ring. A tank in a spot that's hard to reach is harder to swap, and that goes into the price. A photo of where it sits helps us quote it properly the first time.

Older copper and hidden leaks

Buderim has older homes alongside newer builds. In an older house the water pipes may have been in the walls and under the ground for a long time, and old copper can get small pinhole leaks. Most people find out from a water bill that's higher than usual, or a damp spot on a wall that never dries. We find where the water is getting out before we cut into anything, so you're not paying to open up the wrong wall.

Big thankyou to Chris who installed our new tapwear and did a great job fixing up our kitchen plumbing. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to family/friends. We are so grateful thanks again!

  • Chris was professional, punctual and friendly. He worked hard on our renovation and dealt with plumbing issues in our old house well. He also coordinated well with other trades to get our job done in a timely manner. We would recommend Chris and would happily now be our first choice of plumber in Buderim.
