What we do in Ulmarra
The full range of our plumbing and gas services is available across Ulmarra: 24/7 emergency callouts, hot water systems, blocked drains, gas fitting, bathroom and kitchen renovations, leak detection, burst pipe repairs, toilets and taps, roof plumbing and stormwater drainage. Whatever the issue, one phone call solves it.
Local response, local knowledge
Knowing Ulmarra — the older pipework in heritage properties, the soil and stormwater behaviour, the local council requirements — means faster diagnosis and longer-lasting repairs. We're not interstate; we live and work right here.
Emergency plumber Ulmarra — 24 hours a day
Burst pipes, blocked sewers and hot water failures never wait for business hours. Our after-hours line is answered by a licensed plumber, not a call centre, so you get a straight answer about what is happening and when we will be at your door in Ulmarra. Most emergency callouts across the Clarence Valley are attended the same day, and overnight jobs are triaged by urgency — anything involving flooding, sewage or gas goes to the front of the queue.
Before we arrive we will walk you through the immediate steps to limit damage: where your water meter and isolation valve usually sit on a property like yours, how to shut down a leaking hot water unit safely, and when to turn the power off at the switchboard. That five minutes of advice regularly saves Ulmarra homeowners thousands in water damage and carpet replacement.
Blocked drains and stormwater in Ulmarra
Drain blockages in Ulmarra usually come down to three culprits: tree roots working into old clay joints, fat and food waste building up in kitchen lines, and stormwater pits that silt up between heavy Clarence Valley downpours. We clear the blockage with high-pressure water jetting rather than just rodding a hole through it, then run a drain camera so you can see exactly what caused it.
If the camera shows a collapsed or root-invaded section, we mark the location above ground and quote the repair before any digging starts. For recurring problems we can reline the affected run or install an inspection point so future clears are quicker and cheaper. Every job finishes with the site tidied and the drain flow-tested.
Hot water systems and gas fitting for Ulmarra homes
We supply, install, service and replace electric, gas, solar and heat-pump hot water systems throughout Ulmarra. If your unit has failed, we will tell you honestly whether a new element, thermostat, valve or anode will get you several more years, or whether replacement is the smarter spend. When replacement is the answer we can usually have a compliant new unit installed the same day.
On the gas side we are fully licensed for appliance installation, cooktops and ovens, gas hot water, bayonet points, LPG changeovers and gas leak detection. Every gas job is pressure-tested and issued with the correct compliance certificate — essential if you ever sell or insure the property.
Property types we work on around Ulmarra
From heritage cottages to working farms, Ulmarra plumbing needs specialist attention. We bring the right tools and the right experience to every job. That means we are just as comfortable on a tenanted rental with a landlord waiting on a quote as we are on a renovation where the tiler is booked for Friday. We work with local real estate agencies, strata managers, builders and business owners, and we handle owner-occupier work every day of the week.
Because we are based in Grafton and already travel to South Grafton, Yamba, Maclean, Iluka regularly, we can often fold your job into an existing run and get to you sooner than a metro-based operator. You get one licensed local team for plumbing, drainage, gas and roof plumbing rather than three different trades to chase.
Upfront pricing and workmanship you can check
You get a clear price before we start. We explain what is wrong in plain language, show you the problem where we can, and put the options in front of you rather than deciding for you. No hourly-rate surprises, no invented extras, and no charge for turning up to quote a planned job.
Our workmanship is guaranteed and we use quality, Australian-standard-approved fittings and fixtures. We are fully licensed and insured, we leave the site clean, and if something is not right after we leave, we come back and fix it. That approach is why we hold a 5.0 rating from more than 70 reviews across the Clarence Valley.
