What We Handle
Whatever has gone wrong in the unit or the pre-war cottage, it usually sits under one of these four:
Emergency plumbing
burst pipes, overflowing pans, cold showers and gas leaks, sorted by urgency.
General plumbing
taps, toilets, bathrooms, kitchens, hidden leaks and gas appliances.
Drainage
blocked drains and sewers, stormwater lines, and camera inspections that film the pipe and show the fault.
Hot water
repairs that keep a sound system going, and full swaps when a tank dies.
Plumbing Conditions in Bowen Hills
This suburb splits in two, and each half fails in its own way. The towers carry one set of problems, the hill another.
A tower suburb with young pipes
At the last census, 93.3 per cent of Bowen Hills homes were flats or apartments, many of them built in the 2010s apartment wave. Those original tanks and heat pumps are now old enough that elements, thermostats and relief valves give out one by one.
Identical fittings stacked floor on floor
Builders fitted whole towers from one program of hose, valve and trap, level after level, so when one ages out, its twins a few storeys up are usually not far behind.
High ground and filled swamp
The hill houses tie into clay drains laid when the sewer program reached this pocket in the mid-1930s, while the low ground around Mayne and Abbotsford Road sits on fill over old swamp, where shallow groundwater presses on cracked joints. Perry Park went under when Breakfast Creek rose in January 2011.
Why Choose Plumber Wilston
The same licensed team also takes in Herston, Windsor and the rest of the inner-north run, so the Wilston plumber who sorts your unit already knows the buildings either side of it.

Questions From Bowen Hills
Call (07) 3524 7117What do I do about a burst flexi hose in a Bowen Hills unit?
Close the stop tap behind the toilet or under the sink first, because water from a split hose travels down through the slab within minutes, then call (07) 3524 7117.
Can you replace a hot water tank in a Bowen Hills apartment?
Yes, and the job usually means lift access and body-corporate approval before the old tank moves, so we plan the swap with strata and book the lift window before we start.
Who owns the water pipes in Bowen Hills?
Urban Utilities looks after the public water mains and sewers, while the pipes on your side of the connection belong to you, so leaks on the property are yours to fix.
Do stormwater drains near Breakfast Creek block in Bowen Hills?
They can, because the pits on the low ground near Perry Park lose their outfall whenever the creek runs higher than their outlets, and the January 2011 flood showed how quickly it rises.
Are the old drains around Montpelier Road a problem?
Some are, because the surviving hill houses run on earthenware lines from the mid-1930s sewer rollout, and a century of ground movement has knocked those joints out of line, letting roots and debris slip in.
