“My experience with Expert plumbing was brilliant!”
“My experience with Expert plumbing was brilliant!
Everything was organised quickly and efficiently online, and Jackson who came out to do the work was excellent! Super knowledgeable, explained what was broken and what he would do to fix it, got it done in good time and was a joy to chat with! He even gave me tips on plumbing tape and rubber stoppers!
For a super early plumbing job on a Friday morning, this was an awesome time!”

“Communication from the service was also very speedy”
“Theo arrived on time, made helpful suggestions regarding which piping would look best for our kitchen, and cleaned up after himself. Theo was professional and courteous. We are very happy with the quality of his work and no one has noticed the external piping because of how he blended it with our kitchen. Communication from the service was also very speedy and they provided us with a fixed cost quote which we appreciated very much. Thank you!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Expert Plumbing & Gas Services provides professional installation, repair, and maintenance of hot water systems for homes and businesses. Whether you need a gas, electric, or solar hot water unit, our experienced team ensures reliable, efficient, and safe hot water solutions. We help prevent unexpected failures, improve system efficiency, and ensure your household or business has a constant supply of hot water when you need it.
Why is my hot water running out too quickly?
This can happen due to:
A hot water unit that is too small for your household needs
A faulty PTR or pressure relief valve leaking constantly
Sediment build-up reducing the tank’s capacity
Issues with thermostatic mixing valves
Can I switch to a solar hot water system?
Yes. Solar hot water systems are reliable and energy-efficient, particularly in Australia. Most systems have a gas or electric booster to ensure hot water on cloudy days.
How do I know if my hot water system needs replacing?
Signs your system may need replacing include:
Water takes too long to heat
Frequent breakdowns or repairs
Leaks around the tank
Rusty or discoloured water
How often should I service my hot water system?
Regular servicing, ideally every 1–2 years, helps maintain efficiency, prevent breakdowns, and prolong the life of your system.
Can I repair my hot water system myself?
For safety reasons, hot water system repairs should always be handled by a licensed plumber. Gas and electric systems can be dangerous if not repaired correctly.
How long does installation take?
Most hot water system installations can be completed in a few hours. Larger systems or replacements that involve plumbing or gas upgrades may take longer.
