Plumber Horsley

Horsley is five minutes from where Brad works out of, so it is one of the suburbs we get to quickest. The estates climbing the hill off Bong Bong Road are a very different job to the older parts of Dapto down the bottom, and they throw up a different set of problems.

Most of Horsley went up from the 1990s onward, which means the plumbing is not old but the fittings are getting there. Builder-grade flexible hoses, mixer cartridges and tempering valves all have a working life, and a lot of them are quietly reaching the end of it at the same time. A flexi hose that lets go under a vanity while nobody is home is the sort of job we see far too often, and it is the cheapest thing in the house to replace before it happens.

Common plumbing jobs in Horsley

• Hot water systems from the original build now due for replacement
• Failed flexible hoses, mixer cartridges and worn tap sets
• Blocked drains and slow-draining showers on the sloping blocks
• Bathroom and kitchen renovations, and second bathrooms in growing houses
• Gas points for cooktops and outdoor kitchens

Blocked drains and emergencies

Blocked drains are the most common emergency we get called out to. On the steeper Horsley blocks the drainage lines have plenty of fall, so when something does back up it is usually a genuine blockage rather than a lazy grade, and it needs clearing properly rather than a bottle of drain cleaner.

After-hours call-outs are available. Extra charges apply and depend on the job, and Brad tells you the cost on the phone first.
