Pre-Purchase Plumbing Inspection — Kedron

Successfully Resolved
Kedron, QLD1.5 hours

The Problem

A couple purchasing an older Queenslander wanted confidence in the property's plumbing before settlement.

Our Solution

We carried out a full plumbing inspection covering all pipes, fixtures, hot water system, and drainage — and identified corroded copper pipes under the house.

The Result

The buyers used the report to negotiate a price reduction, saving thousands. The pipes were replaced as part of the purchase conditions.

Annual Maintenance Inspection — Stafford

Successfully Resolved
Stafford, QLD2 hours

The Problem

A landlord wanted to ensure their rental property met plumbing compliance standards ahead of a new tenancy.

Our Solution

We inspected all taps, toilets, hot water system, and drainage. Found a failing toilet seal and low-pressure issue at the hot water unit.

The Result

Both issues were repaired on the spot. The landlord received a written report confirming the property was fully compliant.

Hot Water Preventative Service — Wavell Heights

Successfully Resolved
Wavell Heights, QLD1 hour

The Problem

Homeowners noticed their hot water unit was over 10 years old and wanted to know its condition before it failed unexpectedly.

Our Solution

We inspected the system, flushed the tank, tested the tempering valve, and checked the anode rod — all critical for longevity.

The Result

The system was given another 2-3 years of life with simple maintenance, avoiding a costly emergency replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a plumbing inspection include?

We check all taps and fixtures, run a CCTV drain survey, inspect the hot water system, test water pressure, and check for visible pipe issues. You receive a written report with our findings and recommendations.

Should I get a plumbing inspection before buying a house?

Absolutely — a pre-purchase plumbing inspection is one of the most valuable things you can do. We identify issues before settlement so you can negotiate or walk away informed.

How often should I get a plumbing inspection?

We recommend every 2–3 years for owner-occupied homes. Rental properties should be inspected at each tenancy change or annually.

Can you fix issues found during the inspection on the same visit?

Yes — in most cases we can fix minor issues on the same visit. Larger repairs are scheduled promptly.
