The Brisbane City Council suggests the following tips you can do yourself to check for water leaks in your home:
- Turn off taps completely, check for wear on washers and get leaking taps fixed
- Check for leaks in your toilet by adding food colouring in the cistern. If the colour appears in the bowl after 15 minutes you have a leak.
- Additionally you can check for leaks using your water meter. Take a reading last thing at night (make sure no water is used throughout night) and take another reading first thing in the morning. If there is a change in the reading you may have a leak.
- Our team at OA Plumbing can help you resolve leaks and test for further undetected tap leaks around your home with tap servicing. Our tap service may include replacement of tap washer, o-rings and jumper valve, etc.
Toilets / Urinals need regular servicing to operate effectively – to keep your facilities clean, odour-free and hygienic. If a urinal is not serviced regularly issues such as bad drainage and pooling can develop.
One of the most common causes of a blocked sewer pipe is objects such as baby wipes, toys, cat litter, oil, grease and paint being flushed down the toilet/drains. Sewer lines can also fail due to tree roots, age (old pipes rusting and deteriorating), ground movement and temperature.
OA Plumbing provide expert sewer cleaning and repairs for the Brisbane area.
Need your water filter replaced? OA Plumbing can source cartridges; and can remove and replace water filter cartridges.
Regular maintenance is a good way to ensure efficiency and longevity of your hot water system.

Pipe Inspections
- A pipe inspection is recommended if you are having constant problems with your drains and are not sure where the problem lies. Using an electric eel the drain is inspected to identify the underground pipe leaks/issues. A detailed report outlines the issues with drainage pipes. Most commonly these are:
- A broken drain
- The drain is misaligned, has collapsed or has been crushed
- Foreign objects blocking drain pipes
- Blockages caused by tree roots which have grown in the drain from cracked joints, restricting the flow
- Drains with pipe work that has dropped
Once we have identified the cause we can then recommend the best solution to perform the required underground pipe repairs.
Unblocking Drains & Drain Repairs
We use the latest technology to clear blocked pipes in baths, showers, basins, toilets, kitchen sinks and laundries. Blocked plumbing is a huge inconvenience and may mean that your home or office is unable to function. If you are experiencing drainage problems call in the team from OA Plumbing.
When a drain cannot be cleared OA Plumbing can repair your drain with minimal disturbance. Our repairs are completed properly first and every time.
Whether it is a waste pipe, sewer or stormwater drain we can repair it. We undertake a thorough inspection and identify the best course of action. Often only a section of the drainage system requires partial repair. However if your drainage system requires complete repair we can perform excavation and structural pipe lining. Call us today to discuss investigation and tailored drain repair options.

Gas Hot Water Services
A gas hot water system uses gas to heat the hot water. It burns LPG or natural gas (mains or reticulated gas) and therefore require a natural gas connection to your home or the use of bottled gas.
There are two types of gas hot water systems:
- Instantaneous systems:
- Tankless instantaneous systems (continuous flow systems) heat water on demand. When the hot tap is turned on the gas burner starts and heats the water as it flows through a heat exchanger (a coiled pipe). It only heats the required amount of water instead of heating a full tank. With a continuous flow system no energy is wasted from unused hot water. The systems are wall mounted and compact so are a great space saving solution.
- Storage water heaters:
- A storage heater uses a gas burner located under an insulated storage tank to heat the water. A storage heater will have a pilot flame that lights the main burner when needed. Storage heater systems installed indoors require a flue to vent exhaust gas outside.
- A gas hot water service can be a good solution for a home with limited sunlight/where a heat pump may be unsuitable.
