 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a reticulation contractor, we are always looking for reliable plumbers to work with.

We had a client in Burns Beach who noticed water leaking down their driveway while they were overseas on holiday. After seeing it on their CCTV, it became an urgent priority to have it fixed as soon as possible.

We were initially called out, as it was assumed to be an issue with the reticulation system. However, upon inspection, we quickly identified a leak in the copper pipe coming off the water meter.

We contacted Brett from Mindarie Plumbing and Gas and sent through some photos. Brett was able to provide a prompt estimate and arrange a time to attend the property in Burns Beach.

He quickly repaired the leaking copper pipe near the water meter, and upon completion, sent through photos, giving us peace of mind that the issue had been resolved.

Outstanding service from a reliable local plumber. We highly recommend Brett and the team at Mindarie Plumbing and Gas for any plumbing work in Burns Beach and surrounding areas.

Charged us reasonably the whole way through. Didn’t ask for a review which means all of his reviews are organic. Probably the first review I’ve gone out of my way to make which speaks volumes about Brett.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the first thing I should do if a pipe bursts?

The absolute first step is to locate your property's main water meter and turn the isolation valve completely off (usually by turning it clockwise). This immediately stops the flow of pressurised water into your home or commercial building, which is critical for preventing extensive flooding and severe structural damage while you wait for a plumber.

Once the water is secured, you should also turn off your hot water system to prevent the heating element from burning out while the tank is empty. If water has pooled near any electrical outlets or appliances, turn off the power at your main switchboard to eliminate the risk of electric shock, then call our team for an urgent repair.

Can you repair pipes hidden behind walls or under concrete slabs?

Yes, we specialise in repairing concealed pipework in both residential and commercial environments. Instead of tearing up your property blindly, we employ non-invasive acoustic and thermal leak detection equipment to pinpoint the exact location of the compromised pipe behind the brickwork or beneath the concrete.

Once we know exactly where the fault lies, we can perform a highly targeted excavation or wall removal to access the pipe. This precise approach significantly minimises the disruption to your property and drastically reduces the overall cost of the subsequent patching and restoration work required after the plumbing is fixed.

Why do pipes burst in the first place?

Pipes can fail for several reasons, but age and corrosion are the most common culprits in older properties. Over decades, constant water pressure and chemical reactions can weaken copper or galvanised steel pipes, causing them to thin out, develop pinhole leaks, and eventually rupture under stress.

Other common causes include aggressive water hammer (that loud banging sound when you turn off a tap), which sends shockwaves through the system and damages pipe joints over time. Poor initial installation, ground movement, and invasive tree roots wrapping around or crushing underground lines can also lead to catastrophic pipe failure.

How do I know if I have a hidden leak before it bursts?

Hidden leaks often leave subtle clues long before a major pipe blowout occurs. You might notice unexplained damp patches on your walls, bubbling paint, warped floorboards, or a persistent musty smell in certain rooms. Another major indicator is a sudden, unexplained spike in your monthly water bill from the Water Corporation.

You can also perform a simple check yourself by turning off every tap and water-using appliance in your home, then checking your water meter. If the dials are still spinning, water is escaping somewhere in your system. If you notice any of these signs, it is crucial to have us investigate immediately before the weak point completely gives way.

Do you use copper or plastic piping for replacements?

We carry and install a variety of premium, approved piping materials, and the choice largely depends on your property's existing infrastructure and the specific application. For many traditional repairs and exposed external lines, high-grade copper remains the industry standard due to its exceptional durability and resistance to the harsh WA sun.

However, for internal repiping or tight concealed spaces, modern cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) piping is often the superior choice. PEX is highly flexible, resistant to scale buildup, and does not corrode like older metal pipes. We will always assess the specific situation and recommend the most reliable, long-lasting material for your repair.
