Collinswood Plumbers for Homes, Townhouses & Local Businesses
Maybe the toilet is rocking and leaking at the base, the kitchen sink is slow again, or the hot water gave out halfway through a shower. Whatever it is, you want someone to tell you plainly what has gone wrong and what it will take to fix.
We answer the phone 24/7. When a toilet or drain is overflowing, we can typically be there within 60 minutes. Minor faults: we aim for a same day response. Once the plumber has found the cause, you get the price in writing with a choice of fixes, and nothing goes ahead without your okay.

Standing Behind Every Collinswood Job
Co-owners Michael Heinrich and Colin Archer-Bourke started this business as two mates with a van, after years in the trade watching people get burned by plumbers who didn’t show, charged whatever they liked or patched a problem that came back within months. They wanted to be the plumbers people could actually rely on. That idea now runs through a team of six and more than 260 five-star Google reviews.
In Collinswood the test is usually a shared one. A townhouse drain that serves two homes, a leak that starts upstairs and shows downstairs, a landlord who needs to see the problem before signing off the repair. We explain it to everyone involved, work to AS/NZS 3500 and back the job with our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee. Honest pricing, and no loose ends when we leave.
Plumbing Services for Collinswood Homes, Units & Local Shops
Townhouses, units and flats make up a big part of Collinswood, so a lot of our work here involves shared walls, stacked bathrooms and a strata manager or landlord in the loop. North East Road adds its own list, from staff washrooms to kitchens, and our plumbing for shops, offices and food premises is booked around your trading hours. Whichever it is, the price is fixed onsite before we start.
General Plumbing
A leaking mixer in a rented unit, a laundry trough that drains slowly, low pressure in an older house on Salisbury Terrace. Everyday repairs, priced onsite before any work starts.
Blocked Drains
Older house drains and newer townhouse connections often share the same Collinswood block, and roots find the joints. We clear the blockage with high-pressure water jetting and show you what caused it.
Hot Water Systems
Compact units in townhouse cupboards and storage tanks in older laundries, each up against Adelaide's hard water. We repair or replace them, and you can budget for a new system through Humm.
24 Hour Plumber
A burst pipe in an upstairs unit, a blocked toilet at a childcare centre before opening, sewage backing up in a shared driveway. Call at any hour, weekends and public holidays included.
Taps & Toilets
Worn washers, running cisterns and tired toilet suites in Collinswood homes, units and staff washrooms. Small jobs, finished neatly and quoted before we begin.
Leak Detection
When a stain spreads across a Collinswood unit ceiling, the leak is often in the home above or next door. We track down hidden leaks without ripping into walls, then quote the repair.
CCTV Drain Inspections
A camera run from the inspection opening to the street shows a landlord or agent what is wrong under a rental before they approve work, with footage and a written summary.
Blocked Sinks
The shops around Drakes, the Hampstead Hotel's kitchen and every townhouse kitchen in between send grease down the sink. We clear the waste and explain how to keep it running.
Backflow Testing
Childcare centres, food premises and larger buildings along North East Road commonly rely on backflow prevention devices. We test and maintain these backflow devices and leave a written record of each check.
What Collinswood Homeowners, Tenants & Businesses Say
We look after customers all over Collinswood, from Salisbury Terrace and Cassie Street to Redmond Street and the businesses on North East Road. Every review here is from a customer somewhere across Adelaide.
On a horrible night, Aidan came out and did an amazing job. Following him, Michael and Mitch couldn’t have done more to sort out the problem. I would recommend them to anyone. The fees were very reasonable too. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Why Collinswood Homeowners, Landlords & Businesses Choose Us
We have 260+ five-star Google reviews, and if you read through them you’ll notice how little happens in most of them. The plumber showed up in the time slot. The quote was the bill. The floor was clean afterwards. It isn’t thrilling reading, and we would rather keep it that way.
Collinswood gives that routine a proper workout. With so many attached homes and units, one blocked stack or dripping riser can involve two or three households and a manager who isn’t on site. We find the source before anything is opened up, send the owner or agent photos and a written scope, and quote the fix before any work begins. Businesses on North East Road get the same process, timed so the doors stay open. And because a callout doesn’t wait for office hours, we are available 24/7.
Collinswood & the Suburbs Around Its Three Sides
Collinswood is a triangle, and each side faces somewhere different. Its long south-eastern edge is North East Road, and the houses across it are in Walkerville, which is also a different council: Collinswood sits in the City of Prospect, Walkerville in the Town of Walkerville. At the southern tip, where Nottage Terrace meets North East Road, Collinswood touches Medindie. D’Erlanger Avenue divides it from Medindie Gardens and Nailsworth, and Broadview lies to the north. Inside the triangle we work along Salisbury Terrace, Cassie Street, Redmond Street, Edwin Avenue and Rutherglen Avenue, and around R. L. Pash Reserve.
Head north-east along North East Road past the Hampstead Road corner and you reach Vale Park, which doesn’t share a boundary with Collinswood but is only a short way on. Our plumbers work across all of these suburbs, in homes and on commercial sites alike. If you’re not sure we cover your street, leave the team a note about the job and we’ll get back to you.
Collinswood Plumbing Questions, From Townhouses to Shopfronts
The questions we get from Collinswood tend to involve more than one party: two neighbours sharing a drain, a tenant and a landlord, or a business that can’t close for the afternoon. Answers to the common ones are below. If yours is different, call 08 8152 9100 and talk it through with us.
My Townhouse Shares A Wall. Is A Blocked Drain Mine Or Next Door's?
Sometimes it’s both. In homes that share a wall, like many of Collinswood’s townhouses and some of the older homes on Cassie Street, we commonly find a drain or stack shared by two addresses before it reaches the street. SA Water looks after the sewer up to the connection point near the boundary, and everything upstream of that belongs to the property owners. We run a camera through the line to show where the blockage sits and whose section it is in, and if there is a strata or community corporation involved, we can report to them directly.
Is My Street's Stormwater A Prospect Or Walkerville Council Matter?
All of Collinswood is in the City of Prospect, so for your side street, such as Galway Avenue or D’Erlanger Avenue, the local stormwater network is Prospect’s. The houses across North East Road are in Walkerville and deal with the Town of Walkerville instead, while North East Road itself is a State arterial road rather than a local council road. The downpipes, pits and pipes inside your property are yours, and that is the part we clear and repair. If new work needs to cross the footpath, check with the City of Prospect first.
Besides Homes, Do You Work On Commercial Premises Along North East Road?
Yes. Collinswood’s North East Road frontage is working commercial land, with food businesses, childcare centres, the shops around Drakes and the Hampstead Hotel among the premises along it. On sites like these we plan the work around opening hours, isolate only the section we need and tell you before the water goes off. Food businesses also need grease arrestors and trade waste lines that suit SA Water’s trade waste authorisation.
Will I Get A Price Before The Work Starts?
Always. Our team gives you an upfront quote on every job before any work begins. Our receptionist doesn’t have access to a price book, because their role is keeping the team on schedule, dispatching plumbers to jobs and looking after customers. The quote is done onsite instead, with multiple options in front of you, so you never feel pressured one bit.
How Quickly Can A Plumber Get To Collinswood?
When it’s urgent, we can typically be there within 60 minutes, and we aim for a same day response on everything else. The phone is answered 24 hours a day, every day of the year, including public holidays. Call 08 8152 9100 and tell us what’s going on.
