→Alexandra Hills is one of the more established family suburbs in the Redlands, sitting between Capalaba and Cleveland, with leafy blocks, big trees and a lot of original 1970s–90s brick homes. A good number of those homes are still running plumbing that's as old as the house itself.

Blocked Drains in Alexandra Hills
→Alexandra Hills sits between Capalaba and Cleveland, an established family suburb of mostly 1970s to 90s brick homes on leafy, often sloping blocks. Many of these houses still have their original plumbing — galvanised pipes, ageing hot water units, original taps and cisterns — which by now is decades past its prime and starting to show it.

Gas Fitting in Alexandra Hills
→Alexandra Hills is one of the Redlands' most established family suburbs, and most of the homes here were built between the 1970s and 1990s. That means original plumbing and gas fittings that are now well past their prime: galvanised pipe runs, old hot water units, and gas lines that have not been looked at since the house was built.

Plumbing in Alexandra Hills
Alexandra Hills is a large, established family suburb, and a lot of its homes went up through the 80s and 90s. That's right around the age where original hot water systems, pipework and fittings start to give out one after another. If you've lived here a while and things are starting to drip, run or fail, you're not imagining it.
We're a licensed local plumber and gas fitter who can work through those jobs properly, tell you what genuinely needs replacing and what doesn't, and give you the price upfront so you can plan the spend. Alexandra Hills has a high proportion of 1970s to 90s brick homes, and in a lot of them the plumbing has simply never been touched — original galvanised pipes, an original or first-replacement hot water unit, and original taps and cisterns throughout the house.

Plumbing in Alexandra Hills — common questions
My house is original from the 1970s or 80s — is my hot water pipework a problem?
It can be. Original galvanised pipe corrodes internally over time and reduces pressure, and it's common in Alexandra Hills' older homes. We can check whether your pressure issue is the hot water unit, the pipework, or both.
Hot water system leaking? Where it's coming from and whether it's an emergency
Our house still has the original 1980s plumbing — is that a problem?
It can be. Original earthenware drains and galvanised water pipes are well past their intended lifespan by now, and joints in particular become weak points for root intrusion. The camera tells us the actual condition rather than us assuming based on the house's age.
My house was built in the 1980s and the gas has never been checked. Should I worry?
Not worry, but it is worth having it looked at. Gas lines and fittings that age were not designed to last forever without inspection, and a routine check can catch a slow issue before it becomes a leak.
Smell gas in your house? What to do right now, and what happens next
Our house still has galvanised pipes — is a sudden leak from these common?
Yes, it is one of the most common emergency calls we get in Alexandra Hills. Galvanised pipe corrodes from the inside over decades and can split with little warning, so a sudden leak from an older section is not unusual at all.
