What Kind of Work Do Strata Properties Need?

How We Run a Strata Job

  1. 01

    Ring or send the form

    Call (02) 4063 1093 or use the form to explain the fault. We ask enough to bring the right equipment the first time.

  2. 02

    A fixed price first

    A plumber inspects the job and names a fixed figure up front. Nothing gets started until you give the go-ahead.

  3. 03

    Everyone stays informed

    The tenant gets confirmation and pre-arrival messages, and photos are taken as the work runs so the agent has a clear record of the job.

  4. 04

    Covered for a year

    Every job carries our 365-day warranty on all work. If something we did isn't right, ring the same number.

The detailed invoice that follows the photos lists the parts, the labour and the fault we found, which is what an agent needs to close a job without a single follow-up call.

What Drives the Price on a Strata Job?

Strata pricing turns on how easy the shared line is to reach and what is wrong with it:

  • Access A shared line with a usable inspection opening is quicker to work than one buried under a slab.
  • What we actually find Roots in a joint, a dropped pipe or a collapsed section each take different gear and different time.
  • After-hours attendance Work outside normal hours is priced at the after-hours rate, and the quote shows it before you commit.

Strata Work on the Older Blocks

Small blocks, old lines

Census figures put units and apartments at 4.8 per cent of local dwellings, so the strata stock here is mostly compact blocks of flats and townhouses tucked between infill houses built in brick veneer after the war, with the younger fringe estates out toward Maryland. Those infill blocks were often connected to drainage laid decades before them, and when a shared sewer that age cracks, every unit on it backs up together.

The creek adds storm load

Low blocks near Ironbark Creek take water back up their shared stormwater lines and yard pits when the channel through town overflows. Filming those lines before the wet season shows a committee what needs fixing while it is still a planned job.

"[The team] have done an outstanding job at my mother's rental property. The area they worked on was particularly challenging, as it retained water and had become extremely muddy and boggy… The transformation has been remarkable." Nandina

When we're not the right call

changes to common property need a green light from the owners corporation before we start, and a cracked slab or failing balcony structure is a builder's job. Water coming through a roof or a failed waterproofing membrane needs a roofer or waterproofer, not a plumber.

Strata Plumbing FAQs

Can a tenant in a Wallsend unit book you directly?

Yes. The tenant rings, we message them before arrival so they know when to expect us, and photos plus a detailed invoice go back to the agent or owner afterwards. Nobody has to chase anyone for an update.

Who pays for emergency work on a managed property?

That is arranged between the tenant, the agent and the owner, and we stay out of it. Our part is naming a fixed figure before work starts and supplying the paperwork that lets the agent process it without queries.

Do you work on shared stormwater lines near Ironbark Creek?

We do. Shared lines on the floodplain take more water than they were built for in heavy storms, so we camera the run first and quote repairs or upgrades from what the footage shows, not guesswork.

Can you attend the same fault in several units at once?

Often, yes. When one blocked shared drain backs up three laundries, it is one fault, not three jobs. We clear the line once and invoice it once, with photos showing exactly where the problem sat.
