Lockleys Plumbers for Homes & Local Businesses
Perhaps the ensuite tap won’t stop dripping, the garden drain overflows onto the path whenever it rains, or the hot water can’t keep up now the house has an extra bathroom. Whatever it is, you want it fixed properly the first time.

When a pipe has burst, we can typically be there within 60 minutes. Finding the cause comes first, then you get a written fixed quote with options before any work begins.

The Standard We Bring to Lockleys Homes & Buildings
Co-owners Michael Heinrich and Colin Archer-Bourke began with two sets of tools and one van, and a promise to treat every home like it was their own. Honest advice and tidy work built a team of six, and they still get out on the tools with the crew.
In Lockleys that often means working on a big project with an owner who will live with the result for decades. A new ensuite, a second bathroom at the back or a kitchen moved to the other end of the house needs the drainage and hot water planned properly from the start. We take the time to do that, clean up every day, and back the finished work with our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee. It is why we have 260+ five-star Google reviews.
The price is fixed before we begin. Get to know the owners and how the business started.
Plumbing Services for Lockleys Homes, Units & Businesses
Lockleys has more four-bedroom homes than it did ten years ago, as original houses are extended or rebuilt, and that shapes the work listed here. Tree-lined character streets around Willingale Avenue and Malurus Avenue add mature roots to the picture. Lockleys also has aged-care and retirement buildings, a school, a funeral home and two small local shopping areas, each with plumbing that has to keep running.
General Plumbing
Leaking taps, a toilet that keeps running, a garden tap that has seized. Everyday repairs for Lockleys homes, from the original houses to new builds, done without fuss.
Blocked Drains
Mature gardens and street trees mean roots are, in our experience, a common cause of blockages in older Lockleys drains. We clear the line with high-pressure jetting. From $79, T&C's Apply.
Hot Water Systems
An extra bathroom or ensuite can outgrow the old system quickly. We carry out hot water repairs and system upgrades and size the new one for the home you have now.
Emergency Plumbing Around the Clock
A burst pipe in a family home or a hot water failure in a care building. Call us at any hour and a plumber will come out to isolate and repair it.
Taps & Toilets
New mixers for a renovated kitchen, a dripping toilet in the ensuite, or worn taps in an older bathroom. We repair and replace them in homes right across Lockleys.
Bathroom Renovations
Homes with four or more bedrooms have become far more common here, and they need more than one bathroom. We handle the plumbing for bathroom renovations, from rough-in to fit-off.
CCTV Drain Inspections
Before building over an old drain or blaming a tree, a camera shows the route and condition of the pipe. It is especially useful on established Lockleys blocks that have been extended over the years.
Heat Pump Hot Water
Larger homes on wide blocks usually have room outside for a heat pump. If you are rebuilding or replacing, we can fit a heat pump hot water system sized to the household.
Bathtub Installation
A freestanding bath in a new main bathroom or a replacement tub in an older one. We connect the waste and water, check the falls and leave it ready for its first fill.
What Lockleys Homeowners & Families Say
Our team works all through Lockleys, from Malurus Avenue and Rowells Road down to Willingale Avenue and Lockleys Oval. What follows are reviews from customers 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 Lockleys Homeowners & Facility Managers Choose Us
We have 260+ five-star Google reviews, and they are not full of fireworks. People mention that the plumber rang ahead, the quote was clear and the site was left clean. Unremarkable, and exactly how it should be.
Lockleys work often runs bigger than a single repair. A rebuild or extension can add bathrooms, an ensuite and a larger hot water system to a block whose sewer connection was laid for a much smaller house, and an aged-care building or local business cannot be without hot water for a day. We check the existing connection before we plan, give a fixed quote before work begins, and stay available 24/7 if something fails.
Covering Lockleys & the Suburbs Along the Torrens
We cover all of Lockleys, from the River Torrens and Malurus Avenue down to Kooyonga, Lockleys Oval and Willingale Avenue. That includes Grallina Street, Acacia Avenue, Rutland Avenue and the courts at Mellor Park Reserve. West of May Terrace both sides of Henley Beach Road are Lockleys. East of it, only the northern side is, and the shops opposite belong to Brooklyn Park, which also holds Lockleys Primary School despite the name. Underdale takes over the northern side of the road past Mellor Avenue. Fulham lies to the west towards Tapleys Hill Road, and Kidman Park is across the river, where the council changes to Charles Sturt.

Lockleys Plumbing Questions From Homeowners & Businesses
Lockleys questions often come from owners in the middle of a rebuild or extension, and from people with big old trees and older drains. These five cover what we are asked about, in plain terms. For anything else, give us a call on 08 8152 9100.
We're Rebuilding With Extra Bathrooms. Will The Old Sewer Connection Cope?
It depends on its condition and route, so we check before anything is designed around it. A camera inspection shows the pipe from the house to the connection point, including cracks, root intrusion and sagging sections. In our experience original homes here were built with fewer bathrooms than a rebuild usually includes, so we tell you whether the existing line can be reused, repaired or needs replacing, and give you a fixed quote either way.
There Are Big Old Trees Out The Front. Can You Fix The Drain Without Digging Them Up?
Often, yes. Tree-lined streets and mature gardens are part of what makes the Willingale Avenue and Malurus Avenue areas what they are, and nobody wants a trench through them. We clear the roots, inspect the pipe with a camera and, where the pipe is cracked but still in place, relining can seal it from the inside without excavation. If digging is unavoidable, we show you exactly where and why.
We're On Henley Beach Road West Of May Terrace. Is The Other Side Lockleys Too?
Yes. From just west of Fulham Park Drive to May Terrace, both sides of Henley Beach Road are Lockleys, including Kooyonga on the southern side. East of May Terrace only the northern side is Lockleys, and the southern side is Brooklyn Park. We work on both sides regardless, but it can matter when a question involves the council or the address on your paperwork.
Will You Tell Me The Cost Before You Start?
Yes, always. Every job gets an upfront quote before any work begins. Our receptionist does not have access to a price book, as their job is keeping the team on schedule, dispatching plumbers and looking after customers, so the plumber prepares the quote on site with a few options for you to choose from. There is never any pressure to go ahead.
How Quickly Can You Get To Lockleys If Something Bursts?
For a genuine emergency we can typically be there within 60 minutes, 24 hours a day. For work that can wait, we aim for a same day response. The plumbers on our team hold current individual licences and are insured and police-checked, and the company’s licence is PGE #360928. Consumer and Business Services administers licensing in South Australia under the Plumbers, Gas Fitters and Electricians Act 1995 (SA).
