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.Posted on Google![]()

Frequently Asked Questions
A dedicated fire service line is a specialised water supply pipe that connects your commercial or industrial property directly to the Water Corporation's mains. Unlike your standard domestic water supply, this line bypasses your everyday plumbing and is designed exclusively to deliver a massive, uninterrupted volume of water to your fire hydrants and hose reels during an emergency.
Because these lines must handle extreme pressure and flow rates, they require heavy-duty materials, specialised valves, and highly precise installation. We ensure your fire service line is correctly sized and securely installed to guarantee your building's fire protection systems have the immediate water capacity they need the moment a fire breaks out.
In Western Australia, the maintenance and testing of essential fire safety equipment, including fire hose reels, is strictly governed by Australian Standards (AS 1851). To remain legally compliant and ensure the equipment will actually work when needed, fire hose reels must undergo a routine inspection every six months, followed by a more comprehensive annual test.
During these inspections, we check the physical condition of the hose, verify that the nozzle operates correctly, and measure the static and dynamic water pressure to ensure it meets the required flow rates. We then tag the equipment and provide you with a detailed compliance report, keeping your facility's safety records completely up to date.
Yes, installing a backflow prevention device on a fire service line is a critical, legally mandated requirement. Fire water lines often sit stagnant for months or even years between tests, causing the water inside to degrade and potentially become contaminated with rust, heavy metals, or harmful bacteria.
If a sudden drop in pressure occurs in the municipal water mains, this contaminated, stagnant water could be siphoned backward into the public drinking water supply. We install and annually test the required medium or high-hazard backflow valves on your fire service infrastructure, ensuring your property is protected from massive Water Corporation fines and public health liabilities.
Absolutely. A leaking fire hydrant or a constantly dripping hose reel is not just wasting an incredible amount of water; it is actively degrading the internal components of your emergency equipment. If left unrepaired, the brass valves can corrode and seize completely, rendering the equipment entirely useless during an actual fire.
We provide rapid repairs for all essential fire plumbing fixtures to secure your property. Whether it is replacing a perished O-ring inside a hose reel nozzle, repairing the primary isolation valve, or overhauling a heavily corroded external fire hydrant, we arrive fully equipped to restore your equipment to peak operational condition immediately.
Low pressure in a fire hose reel is a massive safety hazard that needs immediate investigation. The most common cause is an internal blockage or severe corrosion within the dedicated fire supply pipework, particularly in older buildings relying on original galvanised steel lines. Over time, rust expands inside the pipe, drastically choking the flow of water.
Another frequent culprit is a partially closed main isolation valve or a failing backflow prevention device that is internally restricting the water supply. We use advanced diagnostic tools to test the pressure at various points along the line, pinpointing the exact location of the restriction so we can repair or replace the affected components and restore full emergency pressure to your building.
