Longueville homes
What Longueville homes put our way
This is a peninsula with a long memory. Residential from the 1870s and proclaimed a suburb in the 1920s, it runs almost entirely to detached homes, with Victorian and Federation houses, Californian bungalows and weatherboard cottages now heavily renovated or replaced by architect-built prestige builds. That history shapes every call we take here.
Galvanised services still in the ground. Unrenovated originals awaiting their turn at renovation still carry galvanised water lines from the suburb's earliest decades, corroded from the inside and quietly strangling flow to upstairs bathrooms.
Roots and 1920s clay. Jacarandas and figs over Arabella and Kenneth Streets feed roots into earthenware sewers laid when the peninsula was proclaimed, making repeat blockages a local staple rather than bad luck.
Sandstone slopes. Waterfront blocks fall steeply to Woodford and Tambourine Bays, so drainage crosses long drops through sandstone benching that shifts, scours and opens joints over the decades.
What we do
Every plumbing service on one page
Whatever has gone wrong, it lives in one of four categories. Start with the hub that matches your job and the full detail is waiting there.
Emergency plumbing covers the jobs that cannot sit until tomorrow: a toilet overflowing, no hot water on a winter morning, a suspected gas leak, plus blocked drains and burst pipes, each with a dedicated page of its own.
General plumbing is the everyday upkeep. Residential plumbing takes the whole-house jobs, maintenance plumbing plans the visits, and the list runs from toilet repairs through to a full toilet installation, a bathroom plumbing renovation or a kitchen plumbing refresh.
Drainage owns everything underground and everything storm-related: blocked drains, a blocked sewer main, stormwater runs, CCTV drain inspections, pipe relining and complete drainage repair and installation when a line needs rebuilding.
Hot water handles showers that run cold and units at end of life: hot water repair when the unit can be saved, hot water replacement when it cannot, and hot water installation for a new spot on the block.
The everyday list keeps going too: tap repairs, shower repairs, leak detection, water filters, appliance installation and the backflow testing your council requires each year.
Not sure which service you need?
Call and tell us what is going on. A licensed plumber will point you the right way and price the job before we start.
Local knowledge that matters
The renovation cycle and what it does to pipes
Walk Arabella Street, Lucretia Avenue or Kenneth Street and you see the same story: heritage fronts, brand-new backs. Streets named Christina, Lucretia and Arabella carry some of Sydney's priciest homes, and the renovation cycle behind them creates its own plumbing fault lines.
Flexi hoses at failure age. Luxury bathrooms renovated a decade or more ago now carry flexible hoses at the age where they let go, above stone floors and joinery worth protecting.
Stormwater sized for cottages. Big roofs on big renovated homes push storm volumes into private lines that were sized for the weatherboard cottages they replaced, which is why storm-season run-off surcharges low-set rooms and gardens first.
Sudden bursts on unrenovated cottages. Original galvanised and early copper services on the homes still between renovations let go suddenly after a century underground, usually with nobody home.
Emergency plumbing: when it can't wait
Some jobs are about the next hour, not the next week. The emergency plumbing hub walks you through what counts as an emergency, what to do in the first five minutes, and how the after-hours callout actually works when you ring at 2am.
- A burst pipe or a flexi hose that has let go above finished interiors
- A toilet overflowing onto bathroom floors
- No hot water with a household waiting on it
- A suspected gas leak, which always means the gas off and a call straight away
The local pattern. Root-bound 1920s mains under the peninsula's streets choke without warning, backing up low-set bathrooms near the bays. And large households here expect immediate replacement when an ageing storage or continuous-flow unit dies, whatever the hour, which is exactly how we run the after-hours side of the business.
While you wait for us, there are make-safe steps that matter: know where your water meter is, know where the gas isolation valve sits, and know that a hot water valve can be shut without a plumber. The emergency hub explains each one plainly.
General plumbing: the everyday list
Most of our work here is not dramatic. It is the steady upkeep that keeps a peninsula of mostly-owner-occupied family homes working the way it should.
Taps and showers. Tap repairs cover everything from a dripping laundry mixer to a seized garden tap, and shower repairs handle the leaking shower that has been quietly staining a bathroom wall for months.
Toilets and bathrooms. Toilet repairs fix running cisterns and cracked pans, a new toilet installation goes in when renovation reaches the smallest room, and bathroom plumbing carries the full renovation rough-in.
Kitchens and utilities. Kitchen plumbing takes sinks, mixers and dishwasher feeds, appliance installation hooks the new dishwasher in properly, and water filters put clean drinking water on tap.
The hidden stuff. Leak detection finds the water you can hear but not see, backflow testing keeps annual council compliance sorted, and maintenance plumbing is the planned-visit approach that catches faults before they become floods.

Drainage: the peninsula's underground story
If one category dominates our callouts here, it is drainage. The drainage hub goes deep on why, and on how we diagnose before we dig.
How we diagnose. The sequence starts with CCTV drain inspections to see inside the line, jetting to clear what the camera finds, then an honest call between repairing the line and pipe relining it. No guesswork, no digging first and diagnosing later.
- Sewer pipes from the suburb's 1920s proclamation era are original clay, joint-cracked and root-ready, which is why blocked sewer mains are a specialty rather than a rarity here
- Mature figs, jacarandas and gums all over the peninsula make repeat root chokes the local staple
- Steep falls to the two bays speed flows that scour lines and jam debris at low junctions near the foreshore reserves, and stormwater systems bear the brunt every wet season
When a blocked drain needs more than a clear, drainage repair and installation rebuilds the line properly, sized for the house that stands there now.
Hot water: choosing, fixing and replacing
Even in this renovated suburb, plenty of interwar homes still run old storage units in narrow side passages between double-brick walls. The hot water hub helps you decide what to do about yours, at any stage of its life.
- Is hot water repair still worth it, or has the unit passed the point where hot water replacement costs less over the next five years?
- If it is going, which of the three — gas hot water systems, electric hot water systems or instant hot water systems — matches how the household actually uses hot water?
- And does the new unit replace the old one in place, or does hot water installation in a fresh spot serve the block better?
The local angle. Side-passage niches between double-brick walls put hard constraints on unit size and access, and salt exposure on the bay-front homes is real, gentler than the open harbour but strongest right at the water. We size and place systems with both in mind, so the replacement fits the passage and the position.

Why Longueville calls us first
A small team on a small peninsula. We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults these houses actually develop: root-choked clay sewers, corroded galvanised services, flexi hoses past their age, stormwater lines undersized for the homes above them.
Part of the same rhythm. Cricket at Kingsford Smith Oval, a ground since the 1890s, and skiffs racing off the Lane Cove 12ft Sailing Skiff Club are the peninsula's calendar, and we are on it too. One call, one fixed price, one warranty that outlasts the job.

The streets we work across Longueville
We cover every street from the Kenneth Street oval to the Longueville Wharf ferry stop, from Dettmann Avenue and Christina Street through to the foreshore reserves at Woodford Bay. Plainly said: if your home is on the peninsula, you are in our patch.
We also work the neighbouring suburbs regularly:
- Northwood, around the point
- Riverview, along the river side
- Lane Cove, the village and its surrounds
- Woolwich, over on the other peninsula
- Greenwich, down towards the highway
Each of those pages carries the same depth for its own streets. For anything else, the contact page lists every way to reach us.
Good questions, straight answers
Your questions, answered by a Longueville plumber
Do you charge a call out fee to look at a problem?
No. The call out fee is $0, your plumber inspects the job properly, and you receive a single fixed written price before any work begins, with no obligation to proceed.
My Federation home still has old galvanised water pipes. Should I replace them?
If the original galvanised service has rusted narrow and is choking flow, replacement is usually the right call, and we can put the full job on paper before starting.
Why do the drains on my block keep blocking with tree roots?
The big old figs and jacarandas planted across this peninsula push roots into the original 1920s clay sewers, and CCTV drain inspections show exactly where the chokes sit before we clear or reline them.
Can you help with stormwater running down my block towards the bay?
Yes. Steep waterfront blocks carry long drainage runs cut through sandstone, and we repair, resize and redirect stormwater lines so run-off reaches the street system, not your foreshore.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We work under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and every compliance certificate your home's records need turns up with the invoice.
Do you really answer the phone at 2am?
Yes. Someone real picks up day and night, every day of the year, and the plumber you speak to explains what is happening and when we can get to you.
What does the Lifetime Labour Warranty actually cover?
It covers our workmanship for life. If a repair we completed is not right, we return to fix it, no questions asked and nothing charged.
My hot water system just died. How fast can it be replaced?
Call now and speak to a licensed plumber. We assess the old unit, quote one fixed written price to replace it, and most swaps happen the same day from the van.
Can you fix a burst pipe without digging up my whole garden?
Often, yes. Relining rebuilds a cracked underground pipe from the inside where the ground allows, and we will say so plainly when digging is truly the better fix.
