  • Storm drain repairs: Storm drains are a hidden workhorse that keeps your property in good condition. In addition to a thorough inspection and cleaning, Climate Plus also offers root removal, pipe relining or a full replacement if necessary. 
  • Shower and bathroom leaks: A consistent leak in the bathroom or shower may not seem urgent at first, but it can increase your water bill significantly. A leaking toilet can also be a potential health hazard. We’ll thoroughly inspect your system and ensure the leak and its cause are addressed with quality workmanship.
  • Hot water installation and services: Climate Plus also offers expertise in hot water maintenance and installations. We can safely install and repair these appliances, ensuring you don’t have to go without warm water.

Why are professional plumbing services important?

Here are a few reasons to rely on professional plumbers in your home:

  • Prevent water damage: Leaving a leaky or burst pipe can cause serious water damage to your property. It’s vital to get these issues resolved so they don’t linger in the future.
  • Ensure water safety: The water in your home should be separated from waste, free from harmful contamination and pass through safe piping. By relying on quality professional plumbing, you can ensure your water remains safe to use and drink.
  • Fix blockages: Drains may clog as grease, soap suds, or other grime continually builds up over a period of time. Blockages should be properly fixed so you aren’t faced with the same issue in a few months’ time. You can also take advantage of preventative maintenance to prevent blockages from occurring.
  • Stop leaks: A continual leak in your home may seem minor, but it can cause water damage if not addressed, and may inflate your water bill. A professional plumber will examine the severity of the leak and replace damaged parts, tighten connections and seal the source of the leak with tape or epoxy putty.  
  • Protect hot water systems: Appliances like hot water heat pumps need regular maintenance and servicing to stay functional, especially during winter or cold fronts. Superior plumbing services can also ensure that your hot water system lasts as long as possible.
  • Lower water bills: Any issues with plumbing may result in a higher-than-average water bill. Not only can a plumber repair leaks and pipes, but they can also provide guidance to reduce your water bill in general.

Signs you may need a plumber

Some common signs you might need to contact a plumber include:

  • Water pressure changes: If you are noticing that the water coming from your tap or shower is lower, there may be a clogged or damaged pipe affecting your system. There may also be a malfunction in your pressure regulator.
  • Sounds from pipes: If you can hear banging or gurgling noises coming from your pipes, there may be loose pipes, excessive water pressure or worn-out components. Banging pipes can also be caused by closing a valve too quickly. 
  • Visible leaks: If you can visibly see the source of a leak, like from a shower head or tap, call a plumber as soon as possible. 
  • Puddles: Finding indoor puddles throughout your home can be a sign that a leak has caused water damage to your ceiling. The source of a puddle should be identified as soon as possible to prevent further damage or health risks. 
  • Foul smells: A persistent bad smell coming from your plumbing fixtures could indicate a backed-up sewer line or an issue with wastewater disposal. 
  • Water bill spikes: If your water bill is much higher than expected, there could be a hidden leak somewhere in your system.

Frequently asked questions

How does a plumber find a hidden leak?

Plumbers detect leaks by using a variety of devices, such as acoustic detectors, infrared cameras and moisture meters. With these tools, a plumber can detect leaks behind walls, floors or hard-to-reach areas without causing any potential damage.

Will a plumber replace a shower head?

Yes, plumbers will replace a shower head. Typically, this is a common and relatively simple job that the plumbers are happy to perform.

At Climate Plus, we can also upgrade, repair or replace your showerhead, in addition to fixing any leaks. 

How to tell if a water leak is inside or outside?

You can check if a water leak is inside or outside the house by checking your water meter. If you’ve turned off all your indoor water usage and the meter’s indicator is still moving, the leak is most likely coming from outside. 

What is the most common residential plumbing problem?

Clogged or blocked drains are one of the most common residential plumbing problems, followed by leaky faucets and fixtures. Most commonly, the issues are caused by grease, hair, soap scum and other grime building up in the pipes over time, eventually restricting water flow. 

Do plumbers fix broken pipes?

Yes, plumbers are the professional service qualified to fix broken pipes. A professional plumber will have the necessary equipment to safely diagnose plumbing issues without damaging the property and to repair the pipes to the relevant health and compliance standards. 

Do plumbers need to be licensed?

Yes, plumbers need to hold a relevant license to legally practice plumbing in Australia.

Climate Plus holds a Plumbing, Draining and Gasfitting Contractor License, in addition to our other licences and accreditations:

  • An Australian Refrigeration Council Refrigerant Handling Licence.
  • An Electrical Contractor License.
  • We are also accredited in solar PV installations and battery installation by Solar Accreditation Australia.

Do I need a plumber or electrician to service electric hot water systems?

To service an electric hot water system, you find a licensed plumber who also holds an Electrical Contractor License as well. While plumbers can manage a majority of hot water issues, electrical malfunctions like thermostats or heating should be addressed by an experienced electrician. 

At Climate Plus, our team holds licenses in both plumbing and electrical work. With our dual-qualification service, we can ensure that your hot water system is functional and efficient for its entire lifespan.
