Burst pipe, a leak you cannot stop, or you can smell gas. Turn the water off at the meter if you can, then ring.

Call now
Not urgent

Something has stopped working properly

No hot water, a drain that is slow, a tap that will not stop. It can wait a day, but it is not going to fix itself.

Six services

Plumbing and gas services in Bangalee

Six things, and the three at the top are what Bangalee rings us about most. Every one of them is done by a licensed plumber and gas fitter, and the site gets cleaned up before we leave.

Gas installation and gas fitting in Bangalee

Make sure you are (safely) cooking with gas. Gas is the licensed, higher risk work a handyman cannot legally touch. Hot water systems, stovetops and ovens are the speciality, domestic and commercial, including commercial kitchens.

Hot water systems in Bangalee

You turn on the tap and wait for it to warm up. And wait. And wait. We install energy efficient hot water systems and troubleshoot the one you already have. Instantaneous gas, solar and heat pump, plus repairs on whatever is out there now.

Bathroom and kitchen renovations in Bangalee

Creating your dream bathroom, kitchen or laundry? The plumbing you cannot see is the part that ruins a renovation. We cover the water and the gas on the same job, so a kitchen with a gas cooktop takes one trade instead of two.

Everything else we cover in Bangalee

Blocked drains and maintenance in Bangalee

Water coming back up through the plugholes, and the plunger has given up. Blocked dunnies, leaking taps, corroded pipework and water pressure that is either a dribble or a rumble. This is the bread and butter service call.

Blocked drains

Backflow and TMV testing in Bangalee

The test is annual, and the reminder never comes at a good time. Backflow valves stop contaminated water flowing back into the drinking supply. Thermostatic mixing valves blend hot and cold to a safe temperature so nobody gets scalded. Both need testing, and we test and repair on the spot.

Flowtek did a bathroom renovation for me. Great ideas and awesome quality but even a better chat.

What customers said about the work

Google reviews from across Yeppoon, Rockhampton and the Capricorn Coast, quoted exactly as they were written.

Couldn’t recommend this service enough! My husband was away and my kitchen sink backed up, he came and fixed it that day and gave me some great advice to stop it happening again. The price was great! I was quoted twice that by the bigger companies and they also couldn’t get to me for days.

Jason was incredibly efficient, friendly, reliable and professional. Workmanship is spot on. Absolutely recommend and will be using him again for our home Reno project.

Bangalee questions we actually get asked

Can I put a gas cooktop in a house that has no gas?

On the Capricorn Coast that generally means bottled LPG rather than natural gas, and yes, it is a normal job. It needs a proper bottle location, a regulator and a compliant run to the appliance. Gas is licensed work, so it is not a job for a handyman, and we will leave you the paperwork.

My house is only fifteen years old. Why is the hot water going?

Fifteen years is a good innings for a storage system, and on this coast the salt in the air shortens it further. If it is still working, it is worth deciding what replaces it now rather than in the middle of a cold shower, because an instantaneous or heat pump changeover is a different install to a like-for-like swap.

No mystery

What happens when you ring

Four things, in order. You could check every one of them the next day.

  1. You ring or you text

    Tell us the suburb and what is happening. A photo of the unit or the leak tells us more than a paragraph does.

  2. We work out what it needs

    Sometimes that is a question or two on the phone. Sometimes it is obvious from the photo.

  3. We come and look

    Nobody prices a job properly down a phone line, so we come and look before anyone talks about money.

  4. You get told what it involves

    What the job is, what it takes and what happens if you leave it. Then it is your call.

Quicker than explaining it

Not sure what you're looking at?

Take a photo of it and text that instead. The plate on a hot water unit, the fitting that is dripping, the wet patch in the yard. It tells us the make, the age and usually the fault, which saves you describing it and saves us guessing.

Texts get read between jobs. If it's an emergency, ring instead.

What we know about the pipes in Bangalee

Bangalee is two suburbs wearing one name, and it matters which half you are in. On the newer estate lots almost everything underground is PVC and pex and less than twenty years old, so we are hardly ever there for a failure. What we do there is add things: a gas point for a cooktop, an outdoor kitchen, a second bathroom, or a hot water changeover now the first round of units is reaching the age where they start to go. On the acreage side of Bangalee it is the other story entirely, tanks, pressure pumps and on-site wastewater, and the calls are about supply rather than about fixtures. If you are ringing us from Bangalee the first thing we will ask is whether you are on town water or on a tank, because it changes the whole conversation.

What we get called for in Bangalee

On the estate side, hot water changeovers and gas work rather than breakdowns. On the acreage side, pumps, tanks and on-site wastewater. Very little in between.

Access and parking in Bangalee

Estate streets are new and easy. On the acreage side expect a gate and a long drive, so tell us which half of Bangalee you are in when you ring.

That figure is a distance, not a promise about the clock. Our local emergency team is ready to respond promptly during all active business hours. Ring us and we will tell you what we can actually do and when.
