Six services

Plumbing and gas services in Lammermoor

Six things, and the three at the top are what Lammermoor 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.

Blocked drains and maintenance in Lammermoor

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.

Hot water systems in Lammermoor

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 Lammermoor

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.

Gas installation and gas fitting in Lammermoor

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.

Backflow and TMV testing in Lammermoor

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.

Timothy Parker Google review, December 2024

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.

Terri Thornton Google review, March 2024

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jason from Flowtek services for the installation of two new toilets. I cannot express enough how helpful and knowledgeable he was throughout the process. Unlike other plumbers who simply gave me a quote, Jason took the time to educate me on my purchases and ensure that I made informed decisions. He was prompt, reliable, and patiently addressed every question I had. It is evident that he takes great pride in his work and places a strong emphasis on providing exceptional customer service. I highly recommend Jason and Flowtek services for all your plumbing needs.

Lammermoor questions we actually get asked

My water pressure drops off in the evening. Is that my plumbing?

Up on the higher Lammermoor blocks it often is not. Pressure at the top of a hill sits at the weaker end of the network range, and it gets weaker again at peak demand in the evening. We can measure it at your tap and tell you whether the problem is on your side of the meter or not, which decides whether a pump is worth it.

There is a wet patch on the lawn but no drop in pressure. What is it?

On a slope, water from a broken line runs downhill inside the trench and surfaces well below the break, so the wet patch is a symptom, not a location. We locate the actual break before we dig, which on a Lammermoor block with retaining walls usually saves more than the locating costs.

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.

Three fields we need, two that help. If it is urgent, ring instead, it is faster.

What we know about the pipes in Lammermoor

Lammermoor is a steep suburb, and steepness decides most of the plumbing here. A lot of the housing is 1990s and 2000s, two storey, built on blocks that needed retaining walls to sit on. Two things follow. First, the drainage and sewer runs are long and they have to hold their fall the whole way down, so when a line does block it is rarely at the gully, it is somewhere in the middle of a long run under a slope. Second, once a retaining wall has been built over a line, getting to it is a proper excavation rather than a shovel job, and it is worth locating the fault properly before anything gets dug. The upside of height is water pressure at the bottom of the hill, and the downside is that the houses near the top can sit at the weaker end of the range, especially on a hot evening when everyone on the coast is watering.

What goes wrong in Lammermoor

Long runs on steep ground. Blockages sit mid-run rather than at the gully, and leaks in a buried line on a slope track downhill before they surface, so the wet patch is rarely above the break.

Access and parking in Lammermoor

Steep driveways and retaining walls. If a job needs a machine, tell us about the slope and the wall when you ring, because that decides whether we bring the mini excavator or dig it by hand.

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.
