Frequently Asked Questions About Our North Lakes Plumbers
How much does a plumber cost in North Lakes or Moreton Bay?
Every job is different, but we make pricing simple. There's a $0 call-out fee and we give you a fixed upfront price before any work starts, so you know exactly what you're paying with no surprises. We assess the job on site, quote it in writing, and you decide whether to go ahead. No hidden fees and no hourly-rate guesswork.
Do you charge extra for after-hours, weekend or public-holiday call-outs?
No. Despite the name, Weekend Plumbing Co. works seven days a week including nights and public holidays, and there's no surcharge for any of it. A Sunday-night emergency in Redcliffe costs the same as a Tuesday-morning job in Chermside.
How quickly can you get to me in an emergency?
We're based in North Lakes and on call 24/7. When you reach out we prioritise your call and aim to be at your door as fast as possible, often within the hour anywhere in Moreton Bay or Brisbane's north. For burst pipes, gas leaks and overflowing drains, call us first on 0482 979 551 and we'll talk you through making things safe while we're on the way.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured?
Yes. Every plumber at Weekend Plumbing Co. is fully licensed and insured under Queensland regulations. Our QBCC licence number is 15024607 and our gas fitters hold the licences required for natural gas and LPG work. You can verify the licence on the QBCC public register.
Do you offer same-day plumbing in North Lakes?
Yes. We offer same-day service for most plumbing jobs across North Lakes, Moreton Bay and North Brisbane. Call in the morning and we can usually have a licensed plumber at your door the same day, including for hot water replacements.
What warranty do you offer?
We offer a lifetime warranty on all our labour, supplemented by the manufacturer's warranty on every part and appliance we supply. If something we did causes a problem, we come back and fix it at no labour cost to you.
How do you clear blocked drains?
It depends on the blockage. Minor clogs are cleared with an electric eel; grease, scale and tree roots are cut out with high-pressure jet blasting; and for drains that keep blocking we run a CCTV camera to find the fault, then reline or repair the damaged section so it stays fixed.
What payment options do you have?
Our plumbers carry mobile EFTPOS for quick, secure payment on site by card. For larger jobs like hot water replacements and sewer repairs we offer $0 upfront, interest-free payment plans through Brighte so you can get the problem fixed today and spread the cost.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We provide commercial and industrial plumbing across North Lakes, Moreton Bay and North Brisbane, including maintenance contracts, fit-outs, backflow prevention testing and after-hours emergency response for shops, cafés, offices and body corporates.
