Shower Repairs
We fix leaking shower bases, replace worn recess fittings and reseat rose arms, tracing the weep behind the tiles to its real source so the repair holds instead of returning.
Kallangur Plumber handles every pipe, tap and drain in the bathroom: shower repairs, leaking mixers, vanities, toilets and full renovation fit-outs, with a fixed quote before any work starts. We work across Kallangur and the neighbouring suburbs.
If we're late, $100 comes off your bill
A bathroom packs more fittings into a smaller space than any other room in the house, and every one of them is a joint that can fail. We work on showers, baths, vanities, toilets and the pipework hidden behind tiles and cabinetry, in homes from the 1960s through to the newest townhouse builds.
$0 call-out fees, available 24/7, and same-day where we can.

Many houses put up in the 1970s and 1980s still carry their first shower recesses and tap bodies, so a slow weep inside a wall often points to a fitting whose working life has simply run out.
The soil here is mapped as alluvial and shale country, and seasonal movement stresses rigid pipework in the slab and walls, which shows up as leaks at joints rather than splits along the pipe.
The recent townhouse builds favour wall-faced mixers and concealed cisterns, which fail differently from the washer taps in the older brick homes and need the right parts on the van.
With 74.3 per cent of homes at the last census being separate houses, most of them on slabs, a bathroom leak can run under the floor for months before a stain appears, which is why we check properly rather than guess.
The list below covers the bathroom work we get called for most often, from a single dripping mixer to a full renovation rough-in:

We fix leaking shower bases, replace worn recess fittings and reseat rose arms, tracing the weep behind the tiles to its real source so the repair holds instead of returning.

Wall mixers, basin taps and bath sets get new washers, cartridges and O-rings, while a tap body corroded through decades of use gets replaced with a matching fitting and tested.

We handle new vanity installations, basin swaps and waste replacements, including the trap and supply work behind the cabinet that nobody sees until a slow leak stains the cupboard floor.

We install, reseal and repair close-coupled and concealed-cistern suites as part of bathroom work, with the pan collar and water connections done properly the first time on every single job.

Damp patches on bathroom walls or ceilings get traced with pressure testing and a careful look at the wet-area plumbing, so we fix the failing joint not just the stain.

Full wet-area plumbing for bathroom renovations, from moving shower and vanity positions to new drainage falls, roughed in before your tiler arrives and fitted off once the surfaces are done.

Four faults account for most of the bathroom calls we take on the older grid streets:
A base that pools and creeps over the lip usually points to a failed fitting or blocked waste, and we clear it, fix the fitting and stop water reaching your tiles.
A mixer dripping after you close it usually means the ceramic cartridge inside has worn out, and swapping the cartridge for the right type brings the flow to a stop.
Hair and soap scale build up in shower wastes over years, and older homes feel it first, so we clear the line properly instead of poking at the surface blockage.
Low pressure at one fixture usually points to a partly closed valve, a clogged aerator or a failing fitting upstream. We test the supply, find the restriction and restore flow.

A bathroom leak never stays where it starts, and the damage it does is far more expensive than the plumbing itself:
A weeping shower fitting soaks into wall frames and runs along pipes to the ceiling below, so a small job this month can become plaster, paint and flooring next quarter.
The most-used wet area in the house puts thousands of cycles a year through every washer, cartridge and joint, so worn parts fail quickly once they start.
A bathroom fit-out buries its pipework behind tiles that will be there for decades, so the rough-in stage is the one place shortcuts cost the most later.

Bathroom work follows the same run as everything else we do: Dakabin, North Lakes, Griffin, Murrumba Downs and Petrie all sit on our round, so a call from any of those suburbs gets the same fixed quote and the same crew turning up.
Brick homes from the late-1960s subdivision wave often still run their original shower recesses, so we trace the leak behind the tiles to the failing fitting before repairing it.
They generally do, because the newer homes lean toward wall-faced mixers and hidden cisterns, and those parts fail in their own way, so we carry the right cartridges and seals for both eras.
Access to the pipework, the fittings involved and whether tiles or cabinetry have to come off all change the figure, and your quote lists each part before any work starts.
Yes, because we rough-in the pipework first and come back for the fit-out once your tiler and cabinetmaker have finished, with each stage priced separately in writing.
No, Unitywater manages only the water mains under the street, and each pipe beyond the connection point, bathroom plumbing included, stays with the property owner, who must maintain and repair it.
