Plumber Callala Bay

Callala Bay is on the northern shore of Jervis Bay, quiet most of the year and busy for about six weeks of it. It sits at the southern end of the area Brad covers, which runs from Helensburgh down through the Shoalhaven.

The thing that shapes plumbing work here is how much of the time nobody is home. Between the holiday houses and the retirees who travel, a lot of Callala properties go weeks without anyone in them. A leak that would be spotted in a day in a family home runs unnoticed here until a water bill arrives with a number on it that makes someone sit down. Hot water systems fail without an audience. Blocks back onto bushland, so the trees that make the place worth living in also send roots looking for the nearest damp sewer joint.

Common plumbing jobs in Callala Bay

• Water leaks spotted late at the water meter, under slabs and in irrigation lines
• Hot water systems that have failed while the house was unoccupied
• Blocked drains from tree roots on bushland-backed blocks
• Getting a house running again after months shut up
• Toilets and taps that were left running and nobody heard

Blocked drains and emergencies

Blocked drains are far and away the most common emergency we attend. On these blocks it is usually roots, and once roots are in a line they come back, so Brad cameras it after clearing and tells you whether you are looking at maintenance or a repair. After-hours call-outs are available. Extra charges apply depending on the job and the distance, and Brad gives you the cost on the phone before he heads down.
