Kuraby is home. Tago Plumbing is based here, so a Kuraby job is usually the shortest drive of the day and the one we can fit in fastest — often within the hour for an emergency.
Part of our Brisbane southside service area.
The suburb is a mix: 1970s and 80s brick homes in the streets around Kuraby station and Beenleigh Road, a wave of modern rebuilds and duplexes, and the larger blocks on the Stretton side of Compton Road. Each brings its own plumbing: original copper and clay sewer lines in the older streets, flexi hoses and slab-mounted hot water units in the 80s brick, and long service runs on the bigger blocks.
Joseph quotes every job in writing before starting, does the work himself and leaves the site clean. QBCC plumbing contractor licence 15575089, fully insured.
The established streets near the station still run clay and earthenware sewer lines, and mature trees find every joint. A drain that blocks again a few months after clearing is the tell. We clear it, camera the line and show you where the roots are getting in so a repair is targeted.
Electric storage units fitted in the 80s and 90s rebuilds are at or past their life. If the tank is leaking it needs replacing; we do like-for-like Rheem, Dux, Rinnai or Thermann changeovers, usually the same day, and take the old unit away.
Braided hoses under sinks and vanities and builder-grade mixers in the newer duplexes are the most common small emergencies in Kuraby. We replace hoses, fit isolation valves and swap cartridges or the whole mixer where it isn't worth repairing.
Kuraby has a lot of knock-down rebuilds and extensions. We relocate kitchen and bathroom pipework, rough-in for new wet areas and bring old hot water installs up to current standards as part of the build.

In the older streets it's almost always tree roots in a clay sewer line. A CCTV inspection after the clear shows exactly where and whether a repair will stop it for good.
