Seen it before
The jobs that fill a Hurstville week
Between the towers and the ridge-top homes, a familiar set of faults leads the call list here.
Strata stack blockages
One blocked line in a Hurstville tower can gurgle and back up through several units. We trace the shared cause and clear it, not just the affected bathroom.
Booster and pressure faults
High-rise apartments rely on booster pumps and pressure valves that drift out of tune. We diagnose surging or weak pressure at the plant, restoring even flow.
Rock-bound drain repairs
Sandstone under the ridge makes digging to a broken drain slow. We prefer no-dig relining where we can, sparing your yard and the rock.
Aging mains on the ridge
Older homes up the hill still carry tired galvanised and earthenware pipe. We stage replacements so pressure and drainage come good without gutting the house.
Hot water plant failing
Apartment hot water banks fade unevenly and leave units cold. We service and replace plant so a Hurstville building keeps consistent hot water.
Cavity-wall leaks on the ridge
Ridge-top brick homes hide weeping pipe in cavity walls. We pinpoint a Hurstville leak precisely before opening masonry, saving the wall and the bill.
The high ground
Why Hurstville plumbing splits into two worlds
Hurstville sits high on a sandstone ridge, which shapes the plumbing in two directions. Up on the older residential streets, established Federation and post-war homes run aging water and sewer mains, and the sandstone underneath makes any excavation slower and more deliberate than in the sandy suburbs below.
Down around the station and Forest Road, a dense core of high-rise apartments has gone up, so a big share of the work here is strata plumbing: shared stacks, booster pumps, pressure-limiting valves and hot water plant serving whole buildings. A Hurstville plumber has to be as comfortable in a plant room as under a weatherboard.
Water and drainage connections are managed by Sydney Water, with local approvals through Georges River Council.

The plumbing we handle end to end in Hurstville
Every Apex service, written for both Hurstville’s high-rise core and its ridge-top homes. Each links to its own page.
Toilet Repairs Hurstville
From apartment suites to ridge-top bathrooms, we fix running and blocked toilets across Hurstville, resetting pans, renewing seals and fitting dual-flush cisterns that stop the water waste.
Leaking Tap Repairs Hurstville
Worn tapware drips in both towers and older homes here. We re-washer or replace kitchen, bathroom and laundry taps so a Hurstville fixture stops leaking and wasting water.
Leaking Roof Repairs Hurstville
Ridge-top roofs and apartment podiums leak where flashings and membranes fail. We trace the true entry point so a Hurstville ceiling stops staining after southerly rain.
Burst Pipe Repairs Hurstville
When aging pipe bursts in a Hurstville home or unit, we isolate fast, cut out the failed run and replace it, containing the damage and getting water back on quickly.
Hot Water Systems Hurstville
We repair and replace domestic units and apartment hot water plant across Hurstville, sizing each system so neither a house nor a whole floor is left running cold.
Gas Plumber Hurstville
Licensed gas work throughout Hurstville, from apartment cooktop connections to ridge-home heaters, with leak testing and compliance certificates handled safely.
Blocked Drains Hurstville
Strata stacks and old ridge drains make blockages a Hurstville staple. We jet lines clear, camera the cause and advise whether a repair or reline keeps them clear.
Rainwater Tank Hurstville
For Hurstville homes with garden space, we install and service rainwater tanks and pumps, fitting slimline units into the tighter blocks up on the ridge.
Backflow Prevention Hurstville
Apartment buildings and dual occupancies need registered backflow devices. We install, annually test and certify them to protect Hurstville’s drinking water supply.
Water Filters Hurstville
Older ridge mains can carry sediment. We fit and service whole-house and under-sink filters for clearer water in Hurstville homes and apartments.
Blocked Stormwater Drains Hurstville
Runoff sheets off the Hurstville ridge quickly. We clear and re-grade stormwater drains and pits so water leaves the property instead of pooling against lower walls.
Pipe Relining Hurstville
With sandstone making digging hard, relining shines here. We restore cracked Hurstville drains from inside with a resin sleeve, avoiding heavy excavation of the rock.
Leak Detection Hurstville
Hidden leaks waste water and damage strata and homes alike. We pinpoint a Hurstville leak with acoustic and thermal gear before opening any wall, slab or common area.
Emergency Plumber Hurstville
Burst pipe flooding a unit or a drain backing up after hours? Our 24/7 team reaches Hurstville fast, stops the damage and secures the property, with no call-out fee to start.

Pipe Relining vs Traditional Pipe Replacement: What Sydney Property Owners Should Compare First
When a cracked or blocked drain begins to back-up, two solutions usually appear in a Google search: pipe relining and pipe replacement. Both restore flow and structural strength, but they work in very different ways. Before booking the first plumber who can “get there tomorrow”, it pays to understand how
7 Early Warning Signs Your Hot Water System Is Struggling: A Practical Guide for Sydney Households
You turn on the tap expecting a steady stream of hot water only to be met with lukewarm drizzle, strange noises or rusty-coloured water. A failing hot water system rarely stops working without sending out distress signals first. Understanding those signs can save you from cold showers, water damage and
What Causes Burst Pipes in Older Sydney Homes?
Sydney’s character-filled terraces and post-war bungalows offer plenty of charm, but their original plumbing can hide unwelcome surprises. Ageing copper that has worn thin, galvanised steel that has long since corroded, and poly pipes that have reached the end of their design life can all fail suddenly, flooding walls, ceilings
