Pricing and Booking Questions
What a job costs, how you pay, and when we can get there:
Call (07) 3522 5623Do you charge a call-out fee?
No, every job comes with $0 call-out fees, whether it is a booked tap repair near Felstead Street or a midnight emergency, and there is no extra charge for nights, weekends or public holidays.
How do I get a price before work starts?
You get flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees, and the fixed quote is agreed before any work starts, so the number we write down is the number you pay.
What payment methods do you take?
You can pay by card or EFTPOS on site when the job is finished, or ask us about Fix now, pay later if you would rather spread the cost.
Do you do same-day plumbing jobs?
Yes, same-day where we can, and because we are available 24/7 you can ring at any hour and we will tell you honestly how soon we can be there.
What plumbing work do you actually do?
Tap and toilet repairs, bathroom and kitchen plumbing, gas fitting, leak detection, drainage and hot water are all on the list, so one call covers the lot.
Can you repair or replace hot water systems?
Yes, from a failed element or valve on an older storage tank through to full hot water replacement when the cylinder has reached the end of its life in the laundry.
Are you licensed for gas work?
Yes, we are QBCC licensed for plumbing and gasfitting under QBCC No: 15024607, and every job is done by a licensed plumber, so the person at your sink holds a current Queensland licence.
Do you work in the suburbs around Everton Park?
Yes, our runs also cover McDowall, Stafford Heights, Stafford, Enoggera and Gaythorne, so the plumber who fixes your tap this week is the one who knows your street.
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
Water you cannot switch off, a toilet overflowing past the bowl, no hot water for a household, or any smell of gas counts, and all four are worth an immediate call.
What should I do first if water is flooding the house?
Turn the water off at the meter first, because that stops the flow while you make the call, then ring us and we will talk you through containing what has already spilled.
I can smell gas inside, what should I do now?
Leave the property with everyone in the house and call from outside, and do not flick switches or light flames on the way out, because a single spark is the danger.
Is there an after-hours charge on weekends?
No, there is no extra charge for nights, weekends or public holidays, so the price of the job does not change just because it happened on a Sunday morning.
Everton Park Conditions Questions
The local factors that shape plumbing work in this suburb:
Call (07) 3522 5623Who owns the pipes between my house and the street?
The water main and the public sewer in the street are managed by Urban Utilities, but you are responsible for maintaining everything past the connection, your hot water system included.
Do the older clay drains here cause problems?
They can, because houses here went up across the changeover from earthenware to plastic drains, so a branch line under a wide driveway may crack where an old length meets a newer one.
Does creek flooding affect plumbing on the brook-side streets?
It can, because Council's February 2022 flood mapping takes in most of Burwood Road and Everton Park Link Road, so storm-season calls there get checked for water entering from outside.
How do I book a plumber in Everton Park?
Ring (07) 3522 5623, tell us what is happening and where you are, and we will lock in a time, with $0 call-out fees and a fixed quote before any work starts.
