Plumber in North Lakes

North Lakes is in the City of Moreton Bay, roughly 15 km north of our Aspley base.

North Lakes is a master-planned suburb, and most of its homes were built from the late 1990s onwards. Newer homes have their own plumbing issues, from hidden leaks and ageing hot water systems to two-storey homes.

Common jobs in North Lakes include under-slab leak detection, hot water repairs and replacements, leaking showers and ceiling stains, and blocked drains.

Common plumbing issues in North Lakes

Leaks under the slab

Most North Lakes homes are built on a concrete slab, with water pipes running in or under it. When one of those pipes leaks, the first sign is often a higher water bill, a meter that keeps moving, or a warm spot on the floor. We use thermal imaging and digital leak detection to find it, and often rerouting the line is a better fix than breaking the slab.

Hot water systems reaching replacement age

Many homes still have the hot water system that was installed when they were built. Continuous flow gas units and electric tanks of that age start to show faults, from error codes to leaks. Try our step-by-step reset first. If that doesn’t fix it, we’ll diagnose it and tell you whether a repair makes sense.

Two-storey homes and ceiling stains

A stain on a downstairs ceiling usually means water is escaping upstairs, often from an ensuite shower, a mixer or a waste pipe. We find where it’s coming from before anything is opened up.

Questions from North Lakes customers

How do I know if I have a leak under my slab?

Turn off every tap and appliance and watch your water meter for 15 minutes. If it moves, there’s a leak somewhere. A warm patch on a tiled floor can point to a hot water line leaking under the slab.

My continuous flow hot water keeps cutting out. What can I try?

Try a full reset using the steps on our self-help page. If it keeps happening, there’s usually an underlying fault, so book a service.

There’s a water stain on my downstairs ceiling. What should I do?

Stop using the bathroom above if you can, and call us. We’ll find where the water is coming from before anything is opened up.
