Tap Repairs
Tap repairs cover dripping spouts, stiff or spinning handles, worn mixer cartridges and outdoor taps that will not close. A washer and seat grind on older houses, a cartridge swap on newer ones.

Which Page Fits Your Job
Most calls fit one of these six pages, and picking the right one saves time on the phone:
- A dripping spout, a stiff handle or a mixer that drips at the swivel: tap repairs.
- A cistern that runs all night, a pan loose on the floor or a flush that will not stop: toilet repairs.
- Showers, baths and basins, plus the pipework behind the wall: bathroom plumbing.
- Sinks, dishwashers, mixer leaks and waste pipes under the bench: kitchen plumbing.
- A water bill climbing with no visible drip anywhere: leak detection.
- Gas appliances, bayonet points, gas lines and their repairs: gas fitting.
Drains, sewers and stormwater sit under drainage, hot water systems have their own hot water page, and anything that cannot wait becomes an emergency plumbing job.
Houses From the Little Aspley Era
Developers marketed the first Strathpine estates under the name Little Aspley starting in the 1960s, and detached brick-veneer homes still frame most streets west of the town centre.
Earthenware drains
Earthenware was the standard house drain when these estates went in through the late 1960s and 1970s, and that whole generation of pipe is now well past its design life.
Staged renovations
Bathrooms and kitchens here were updated around original copper, one decade at a time, so the fixtures you can see are often younger than the pipes behind them.
That gap between visible tapware and hidden pipework is where most of our general plumbing work sits, and it is why we always look past the fitting that failed.
What We Fix Every Week
Six services make up the general plumbing run, and each has its own page with the local detail:
Toilet Repairs
Toilet repairs cover cisterns that keep filling, pans rocking on the floor, and leaks at the pan collar or outlet. Owner-occupied houses report these early, before water damage starts.
Bathroom Plumbing
Bathroom plumbing covers showers, baths, basins and the pressure, temperature and waste lines behind them. Renovations here happened in stages, so one opened wall often shows the previous era waiting.
Kitchen Plumbing
Kitchen plumbing covers sinks, mixers, waste pipes and dishwasher connections. The braided hoses fitted during an update have a limited service life, and many around here now sit quietly past it.
Leak Detection
Leak detection finds the hidden ones: meter tests, moisture tracking and isolating pipe sections until the loss narrows to a single run. Terrace ground that stays wet slows the search.
Gas Fitting
Gas fitting covers new appliance connections, bayonet points, gas line repairs and compliance checks. We hold plumbing and gasfitting licences, so a job crossing from water to gas keeps one quote.

Repair, Replace or Maintain
Not every problem needs the same response, and knowing which one yours needs is half the price question:
Maintain
means the parts are sound and we keep them that way: washers, hoses, valve checks and the connections that fail first when nobody watches them. A yearly look-over costs less than any single repair.
Repair
means one part has failed and the rest has life left in it. A corroded shut-off valve, a cracked pan collar or a split hose are all repair jobs while the surrounding pipe is holding.
Replace
means the part is at the end of its run, and patching it would just move the failure down the line. A drain line with shifted joints, or a bathroom wall that has to open anyway, is a replace decision.
The honest answer sometimes crosses categories. A drain that keeps blocking might need a CCTV drain inspection before anyone decides, and a repair done today can be planned so next year's replacement is easier, not harder.
Tree Roots and Wet Ground
Heritage-listed trees
Fig, pine and silky oak trees on the council's heritage register send roots into the older drain runs, so a slow drain in an older street often has a root problem at the bottom of it.
Gleyed terrace soils
The river-terrace ground here holds water for long stretches of the year, which leaves buried joints and water services sitting in damp ground through the storm months.
That combination shows up in our week as two calls. One is the outdoor tap or garden line that weeps at a joint every winter. The other is the drain that blocks again after each wet spell, because the ground around a cracked joint never dries enough to seal it.

Plumbing Questions From Strathpine
Call (07) 3067 4272Do the original earthenware drains in a 1960s house need replacing?
Not always, because a camera check first shows whether joints have shifted or roots have got in, and a cleared, sound earthenware line can keep serving while you plan any bigger job.
Where does my responsibility for the pipes start?
Unitywater maintains the public mains and the public sewer, while every pipe from the boundary connection toward your house belongs to you, so repairs on your side are jobs we quote for.
Should the flexi hoses under my sink be replaced during a renovation?
Yes, because braided hoses only last for their rated service life, and swapping them while the wall is already open costs far less than a burst under a brand-new kitchen cabinet a year later.
Can one plumber handle both the water and gas sides of a job?
Yes, we are licensed for plumbing and gasfitting, so one visit can rework water lines and run or repair gas piping, and a single quote covers both halves of the job.
Do you work in the townhouses near Strathpine station?
Yes, attached homes on the run get the same service, and because shared drains and courtyards are involved we coordinate with body corporate where needed and book a time that suits everyone affected.
