Signs Your Hot Water System Needs Repair
Signs your system needs a plumber:
No hot water at all
Hot water that runs out quickly
Water dripping under the house near the tank
A relief valve that never stops running
Gas that won’t ignite
Brown or rusty hot water
Banging or rumbling as it heats
If a tank under the house is leaking, turn off its cold water valve if you can get to it safely.
We find the fault, explain it in plain terms and give you an upfront price for each option.
Repair when
A part such as a valve, element or thermostat has failed
The cylinder shows no leaks or rust
Replace when
The cylinder is leaking or corroded

Same-Day Hot Water System Replacement
When a system is finished, we replace it the same day. Under a Queenslander there’s often room to keep it in the same spot. In a unit, we work with the existing space and connections.
We often recommend Rheem, sized to the household and the energy source you prefer.
Removal of the old system where quoted
Installation, connection and testing
Gas compliance paperwork where required
A single upfront price
Interest-free finance is available on hot water system replacements. Eligible heat pump and solar water heaters can earn small-scale technology certificates (STCs) under the Australian Government’s Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme.

Queenslanders, Units and Rentals in Wooloowin
Interwar Queenslanders. Most of Wooloowin’s houses are interwar Queenslanders on large blocks, and several are heritage-listed. In a raised house, the hot water system is often underneath, where a slow leak can go unnoticed for a while.
Units east of the railway. In 2021, 48% of homes were flats or apartments, mostly east of the railway line. Some Queenslanders have also been replaced by dual dwellings, which can mean two hot water systems on one block.
About half rented. Nearly half of Wooloowin homes were rented. We work with landlords and property managers, and a broken hot water service is an emergency repair under Queensland tenancy law.
Our Repair Process
1. Diagnose
We test the system to confirm the fault.
2. Quote
An upfront price for repair or replacement, before any work.
3. Complete
We do the work, check the heating and test for leaks.
No Hot Water? While You Wait
Turn off the cold water valve to a leaking tank if it’s safe.
Keep clear of electrical connections near a leak.
Smell gas? Turn off the gas if it’s safe, ventilate and move away.
Yes. Repairs and replacements are both same-day. Call 0435 878 512 and we’ll have it back on today.
My tank is under the house. Can it stay there?
Usually, yes, if there’s safe access and the space suits the new system. We check before we quote.
Our block has two dwellings. Do you handle both systems?
Yes. We can check and price each system separately, so each household knows where it stands.
Is no hot water an emergency repair for tenants?
Yes. Queensland tenancy law lists a breakdown of a hot water service as an emergency repair. Contact your property manager, landlord or the nominated repairer.
Do you give a price before starting?
Always. You approve an upfront price before any work begins.
