Licensed Brompton Plumbers for Leaks, Drains & Hot Water

It might be a ceiling stain spreading under an upstairs bathroom, a toilet that refills every few minutes, or a sink that gurgles and won’t drain. You’d like to know what’s causing it and what it will take to fix, without a guessing game.

We’ve been in and out of these streets long enough that the way homes here are put together rarely surprises us. When you ring, we aim for a same day response. Your plumber pins down the cause first, then hands over a fixed written quote with the options, and nothing goes ahead until you say so.

Our Promise

What Every Brompton Job Gets From Us

Co-owners Michael Heinrich and Colin Archer-Bourke started this business as two mates with a van, tired of hearing about tradies who never showed up and bills that grew once the work was done. It is now a team of six, bringing over 15 years of hands-on plumbing experience, and the rules have not changed along the way. Be on time. Say what you found in words people understand. Clean up before you go.

Plenty of Brompton homes are rented, so the person who rings us is often a property manager, not the person standing in the kitchen. That suits us fine. We confirm the quote with whoever is paying, let the tenant know when we will arrive, and write down what we found so the invoice makes sense to someone who never saw the job. The work itself is covered by our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee, and more than 260 five-star Google reviews say we mean it.

The last part is honest pricing. You get a fixed price before we begin and it does not creep. If you want to know more about the two of them first, here is how the business began.

Our Services

Plumbing Across Brompton's Homes, Townhouses & Businesses

Brompton rarely hands us the same job twice in a morning. An upstairs ensuite dripping into a townhouse kitchen ceiling, then a blocked line under an older bluestone-fronted home with no side access, then a cool room drain or a service bay at one of the businesses on Torrens Road. These are the services those calls turn into.

General Plumbing

Leaking mixers, dripping cisterns, noisy pipes and a new outside tap. The small jobs in a Brompton house or townhouse that are easy to put off until they grow.

Blocked Drains

Narrow Brompton lots often leave no way down the side, so we work out how to reach the line before anything else. Clearing from $79, T&C's Apply.

Hot Water Systems

No hot water in a two-storey townhouse often means a unit squeezed into a cupboard or a tight side passage. We repair or replace it and plan how the new one gets in.

Emergency Plumber 24/7

Water through a downstairs ceiling late at night, or a burst pipe before the shop opens. We answer around the clock and can typically be there within the hour.

Taps & Toilets

Running cisterns, worn washers and toilets that never stop filling, in upstairs bathrooms and in older single-storey homes with tight access.

Leak Detection

A stain on the ground floor ceiling of a Brompton townhouse is, in our experience, usually the bathroom directly above. We track down the leak without pulling the ceiling apart, then fix it.

Pipe Relining

Older homes on very small, narrow lots with barely any front setback leave little room to dig. Where the old pipe allows it, we reline the damaged section from the inside instead.

Stormwater Drains

Downpipes and yard drains that back up in heavy rain. We clear and repair the private line to the council connection, which in our experience is where a Brompton stormwater fault usually sits.

Commercial Plumbing

Cool rooms, service bays, workshop amenities and shop toilets along Torrens Road, plus the warehouses around First and Coglin Streets. We schedule commercial work around your trading hours.

Why us

Why Brompton Homeowners & Landlords Choose Us

There are 260+ five-star Google reviews behind us, and if you read through them they are not very exciting. People mention that we rang ahead, that the quote did not grow halfway through, and that we swept up before we left. That is the whole method, repeated on every job.

In Brompton the thing we are asked to explain most is a stain on a downstairs ceiling. Two-storey townhouses are the most common attached home in the suburb, so in our experience the wet area causing it is usually in the same house rather than next door. We test and isolate before we cut anything, show you where the water is coming from, and give you a fixed price before any work starts. For a landlord or an agent, that means one clear report and one visit rather than three.

Where we service

Our Plumbers Around Brompton & Its Neighbours

Our plumbers work right across Brompton, from the townhouse groups off Torrens Road to the older streets around East, West and Coglin Streets and the warehouses out towards Wood Avenue. That includes the streets around Brompton Green, Rowley Reserve and Ethelbert Square, plus Chief Street. Bowden adjoins it on the eastern side, where the newer buildings bring a different set of jobs. Ridleyton runs along the western edge, and Renown Park faces Brompton across Torrens Road, so a business on one side of that road and a home on the other are often the same afternoon for us. Ovingham is close by on the far side of Bowden rather than next door, and it gets the same team.

Whichever street you are on, we work the same way: look first, explain plainly, quote a fixed price and start only when you agree. Humm payment plans are available if the timing is awkward, and terms and conditions apply.

FAQs

Brompton Plumbing Questions From Homeowners & Tenants

Most of what Brompton customers ask us comes back to how homes here are built: two storeys on a narrow footprint, or an older single-storey home that often has nowhere to walk down the side. Here are the questions we hear most, answered plainly. For anything else, ring us on 08 8152 9100.

In a two-storey Brompton townhouse it very often is, although we prove it before anyone starts cutting. We run the upstairs shower, basin and toilet one at a time, check the waste and supply connections, take moisture readings across the ceiling and isolate each line until the source shows itself. Then you get a fixed price for the repair and, if you rent the place out, a written note you can pass to your agent.

Yes. A lot of Brompton’s older homes sit on very small, narrow lots with the house close to the street, so we plan the access before the repair. We look for an inspection opening at the front or inside, clear the line from there, and camera the pipe if the blockage keeps coming back. Where a section is cracked but still in place, relining from the inside can save digging up a yard you cannot get a machine into.

We do. The south side of Torrens Road in Brompton is a working frontage, with food businesses, vehicle yards, a service station and shops, and the warehouses around First and Coglin Streets are only a street or two away. Cool room drains, service bays, staff amenities and grease-heavy kitchen lines are all ordinary work for us, and we are open 24/7, so repairs can be booked before opening or after close.

Because every job gets an upfront quote from the plumber who actually sees it, and that happens before any work begins. The team on the phones do not work from a price book. Their job is keeping everyone running on schedule, sending the right plumber out and looking after you. Once we are on site, you get a quote with more than one option where there is a choice to make, and you will never be pushed into any of them.

For a genuine emergency we can typically be there within 60 minutes, at any hour and on any day of the year. For work that can safely wait, we aim for a same day response. Whoever arrives holds a current individual licence, has passed a police check and is insured. The business itself is licensed as PGE #360928, and plumbing licences in South Australia are issued and checked by Consumer and Business Services under the Plumbers, Gas Fitters and Electricians Act 1995 (SA).
