A shower tray leaking into the flat below, a gurgling drain after a new bathroom went in, a tap you can hear dripping from bed. Whatever it is, you want it found properly and fixed once.

Our Commitment to Black Forest Homes & Businesses
Co-owners Michael Heinrich and Colin Archer-Bourke started Adelaide Expert Plumbing & Gas as two mates with a van, because they believed people deserved plumbers who show up, tell the truth about the problem and charge a fair price. That approach has grown the business into a team of six and earned more than 260 five-star Google reviews.
A lot of Black Forest’s homes have been extended, rebuilt or divided over the years, so new bathrooms often join old drains. We take the time to understand what is there before we change it, meet AS/NZS 3500 on the plumbing and AS 5601 on anything gas, and put our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee behind the result. Get in touch with the team for a quote. Honest prices, careful work and real care.
Plumbing Services Across Black Forest Houses, Flats & Local Businesses
Most Black Forest jobs fall into one of three groups. There are the older houses, where extensions and new wet areas have been joined to drains laid decades earlier. There are the blocks of flats, where one leak can affect two homes. And there are the shops, cafés, offices, school and community buildings, which need plumbing that keeps working through the day. We quote each onsite before we start.
General Plumbing
Leaking taps, banging pipes and worn washing machine hoses in Black Forest houses and flats. We diagnose the problem, quote it onsite and fix it properly.
Blocked Drains
Roots from established street trees and older sewer connections are common culprits here. We unblock drains and camera the line so you know the cause.
Hot Water Systems
From a compact system in a flat to a larger one in a family home, we repair and replace hot water systems in Black Forest and size each one to the household.
Emergency Plumbing
A burst pipe, a leak coming through a ceiling or a toilet overflowing at night needs a quick response. We handle urgent plumbing jobs 24 hours a day.
Taps & Toilets
Dripping taps, running cisterns and cracked toilet pans in homes, rentals, shops and community buildings. Everyday repairs, done tidily and priced before we start.
CCTV Drain Inspections
When an extension or a second home has been joined to an old drain, nobody is quite sure where it runs. A camera inspection maps the line before any digging starts.
Leak Detection
In Black Forest's flats, water from one unit often shows up in another. We track a leak back to where it starts, so the repair opens one small section instead of a whole ceiling.
Sink Installation
Kitchen and laundry sinks for homes and flats, and hard-working sinks for the cafés and food outlets on South Road, fitted and connected to the right waste.
Heat Pump Hot Water
Many Black Forest houses sit on suburban blocks with room for an outdoor unit. We check where it would sit and how much hot water the household really uses, and price a heat pump beside a standard replacement.

Why Black Forest Locals & Businesses Choose Us
Look through our 260+ five-star Google reviews and you will mostly find ordinary jobs done well. The plumber was on time, the price matched the quote, and the house was left clean. There are no heroics in it, just reliable work.
In Black Forest, the houses have often been extended or split and the flats share services, so a problem is not always where it first appears. We track it to the source, explain what we found, and keep landlords, tenants and strata managers in the loop. The shops and cafés on South Road get work planned around trading. Every job carries our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee.
Where Black Forest Meets Its Neighbours
Black Forest is easy to find on a map because four clear lines surround it. The Glenelg tram line runs along the north, with Everard Park and Forestville on the other side. The Seaford railway runs along the south-east, with Clarence Park beyond it, even though the Clarence Park Community Centre on East Avenue is actually a Black Forest address. South Road forms the western edge, and East Avenue the eastern one. Between those lines our plumbers cover Forest, Laught, David and Busby Avenues, Byron, Cowper and Dryden Roads, and the streets around Forest Avenue Reserve.
Every one of those neighbours is part of our patch, and a house, flat or shop in any of them is priced the same way: onsite, before we start. If you live near one of those boundaries and are not sure which suburb you are in, just call and we will work it out with you.
What Black Forest Customers Ask Us
Black Forest’s mix of older houses, flats and South Road businesses means we hear a wide range of questions. People ask about connecting a new bathroom to an old drain, finding a leak between flats, and whether we look after shops, schools and community buildings. Our answers to the most common ones are below. For anything else, call 08 8152 9100.
We're Adding A Bathroom. Can It Connect To Our Old Drain?
Often it can, but it depends on the condition and layout of the existing line. Black Forest’s streets were laid out over a century ago, and many houses have been extended since, so a new bathroom may join a drain that was laid for a much smaller house. We inspect the line with a camera, check its fall and condition, and tell you whether it can take the extra load or needs work first.
A Stain Is Spreading On The Ceiling Of The Flat Below Ours. Where Is It Coming From?
Usually a shower, a toilet seal or a pipe in the flat above, but not always the one directly overhead. We trace the water back to its source before opening anything up, make it safe, and put what we found in writing so both flat owners and any strata manager know what is needed.
Do You Look After The Shops & Cafés On South Road?
Yes. Black Forest’s shops and businesses sit on the eastern side of South Road, including the shopping centre, cafés, restaurants, offices and service businesses. We look after kitchens, staff amenities, grease traps and hot water, quote the work onsite and plan it around your trading hours. The businesses across the road are in Glandore, and we work there too.
Our Black Forest House Was Split Into Two Homes. Do We Share Plumbing?
Possibly. When a single house is divided, the original water supply and drainage are sometimes split between the two homes rather than fully separated. At least one heritage-listed house on Forest Avenue was converted this way. We can trace both lines, show you what is shared and what is not, and quote any work to separate them if you want that done.
Do You Work On Schools, Child Care Centres & Community Halls?
Yes. Buildings like these have heavily used toilets, basins, kitchens and hot water, and repairs need to fit around children, staff and bookings. We plan the work with whoever manages the building, keep disruption down and quote it onsite like any other job.
How Much Will It Cost?
We will tell you before we start. Our team provides upfront quotes on all jobs prior to any work commencing. Our receptionist does not have access to a price book, as their job is to keep the team on schedule, dispatched to jobs and our customers looked after. We quote onsite with multiple options, so you never feel pressured one bit.
Are You Available On Weekends & Nights?
Yes, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. For urgent jobs we can typically be there within 60 minutes, and we aim for a same day response on everything else. Call 08 8152 9100 and tell us what is happening.
