Plumbing for Frankston Homes, Flats and Shops
West of Nepean Highway and along the foreshore, Frankston’s original holiday homes and 1960s brick veneers carry the oldest plumbing in the suburb, and the salt does them no favours. We see a lot of corroded water services, seized gate valves and gutters rusted through from the inside. Replacing a water service in sandy ground is quicker than in clay, which keeps the cost down.
A plumber in Frankston North sees a different mix. Frankston North and the streets around Karingal are largely 1960s and 1970s brick, with original galvanised pipe and the sewer tree-root problems that go with it. Frankston South and the Oliver’s Hill side have larger homes, more hydronic heating and longer stormwater runs down steep blocks.
The apartment and unit stock around the station and Young Street brings shared services, and we work with owners corporations as readily as with individual owners. Shops along Wells Street and in Bayside Shopping Centre call us for trade waste and hot water faults that stop trade.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have a 24 hour plumber in Frankston?
Yes. Burst pipes, sewer overflows, gas leaks and no hot water are handled as emergencies around the clock. Phone 1300 353 193 so the call reaches a person rather than a form.
Why do hot water units fail faster in Frankston?
Salt air corrodes the external casing, fittings and valves on units mounted outside, which is most of them in Frankston. Positioning the new unit out of the prevailing weather and checking the sacrificial anode every few years both help.
Do you cover Frankston North and Frankston South?
Yes, both, along with Karingal, Seaford, Carrum Downs and Langwarrin. Tell us the street when you book so the nearest crew is sent.
How much does a plumber cost in Frankston?
It depends on the job, which is why we quote on site before starting rather than charging by the hour. You get a fixed price for the work in front of you and decide whether to go ahead.
