General Plumbing Adelaide

If you've got a leaky tap, a burst pipe, or water pooling under your house, you need a plumber Adelaide locals have trusted for 15 years. At Innovation Plumbing & Gas Solutions, we handle everything from minor repairs to major pipe work, and we show up when we say we will.

Adelaide's inner suburbs—Norwood, Prospect, Unley, and Burnside—are full of homes built in the 1950s and 70s. These older properties often have ageing copper and galvanised pipes that corrode from the inside out, causing low water pressure, discoloured water, and unexpected leaks. General plumbing work here isn't just about fixing today's problem; it's about spotting tomorrow's before it floods your kitchen.

What General Plumbing Includes

General plumbing covers the jobs that keep your water system running. We repair leaky taps and pipes, replace worn washers, install new fixtures, unblock drains, and diagnose why your water pressure has dropped. Whether it's a simple kitchen tap repair or tracing a hidden leak in your walls, we handle it with meticulous attention to detail.

We also work with homeowners across Glenelg, Mitcham, Campbelltown, and Tea Tree Gully on preventative maintenance. Catching a slow leak early saves thousands in water damage later.

Our Process

We arrive on time, assess the problem, explain what needs doing, and give you a clear quote before we start work. No surprises. No hidden charges. We work efficiently and clean up after ourselves, so your home is left in the same condition we found it—just with working plumbing.

Why Adelaide Homes Need Regular Plumbing Care

Adelaide's hot, dry summers and mild winters mean pipe expansion and contraction happen year-round. Older homes with galvanised pipes are particularly vulnerable. Over decades, mineral deposits build up inside the pipe walls, narrowing the water channel and increasing pressure on the pipe itself. That's when failures happen—often in the middle of winter or over a long weekend.

Our team knows these issues inside out. We've been servicing Adelaide for 15 years, and we've seen every variation of ageing pipework. We can tell you whether a tap repair will buy you time or whether a full pipe replacement is the smarter investment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do plumbers charge per hour in Adelaide?

Most Adelaide plumbers charge between $90 and $150 per hour, depending on experience and the complexity of the job. At Innovation Plumbing & Gas Solutions, we provide upfront quotes so you know the cost before we start. For straightforward jobs, many customers find the total cost is lower than they expected.

How much does a plumber cost in Adelaide?

The total cost depends on the job. A simple tap repair might be $150–$250. A leak investigation with pipe repair could run $400–$800. We always quote in writing, and you're under no obligation to proceed.

Who offers emergency plumber services in Adelaide?

We do. Burst pipes don't wait for business hours. Call us 24/7, and we'll prioritise your emergency. A burst pipe or major leak can damage your home within hours, so fast response matters.

How do you spot a dodgy plumber?

Dodgy plumbers won't give you a written quote, pressure you to decide on the spot, or use vague language about what they'll do. We're different. We explain the problem, show you options, and deliver the work we promised on time and within budget. We're also members of the Master Plumbers Association, and we carry full insurance.

How much would a plumber charge for 3 hours of work?

At $90–$150 per hour, you're looking at $270–$450 in labour, plus materials. But the exact cost depends on the job and whether materials are included. We'll quote the whole job, not just the hours.
