Your Local Plumbing & Gas Experts in Yarraville
From the beautiful Edwardian terraces around Anderson Street to the character weatherboards near Yarraville Gardens, we work clean, quick and careful. Camera-first diagnostics, compact rigs and floor protection keep your place tidy while we fix the real problem.
Yarraville is one of Melbourne's most charming inner west villages - and its heritage housing stock comes with heritage plumbing challenges. The older clay lines around the village let roots in, access in these period homes is often tight, and many properties still have original galvanised pipes behind the walls. We plan it properly and get it sorted on the first visit.
Whether it's a blocked drain from tree roots near Cruickshank Park, a failing hot water system in an Edwardian single-fronter, or a gas fitting job in a renovated weatherboard off Ballarat Street - we've seen it all across Yarraville. Our licensed plumbers carry the tools, parts and experience to diagnose fast and fix right the first time.
We also service the cafés and shops along Anderson Street and near the iconic Sun Theatre, providing grease trap servicing, strata-ready reports and after-hours emergency response for business owners and property managers throughout Yarraville Village.

Google reviews from Yarraville and nearby
Verified on GoogleUsed Hobsons Bay Plumbing to fix a leaking outdoor tap and tight shower taps. Jack came back to install a pressure reduction valve he had flagged on the first visit. Loving the better showers.
Joel was excellent - arrived on time, explained the issue, fixed it up quickly and efficiently. Would highly recommend if you like old-school quality service.
Joel fixed our running toilet perfectly. Prompt service. Fair price with an accurate quote and no hidden charges. 10/10 and recommended.
Amazing service pretty much sums it up. Friday afternoon I discovered a possible water leak under my concrete. Called Hobsons Bay Plumbing and barely an hour later Jack, Daniel and a third plumber were on site.
Had my hot water system removed and replaced. Joel was prompt, friendly and professional. The two guys who attended the job were great - super lovely, respectful and did a great job. Would recommend.
Jack was awesome - helpful, explained everything he did and why. Clean, thorough, perfect results. Extremely happy as he really got us out of trouble with our shower.
Hot Water Specialists for Yarraville Homes
Whether your hot water has failed in a cramped Edwardian cupboard or a renovated weatherboard, we install, repair and replace all major brands - Rheem, Rinnai, Bosch, Dux, Thermann and more. We'll recommend the best system for your space, energy needs and budget.
We handle every type of hot water system:
- Electric hot water - fast replacement for older Yarraville homes still running storage tanks.
- Gas continuous flow - compact Rinnai and Bosch units perfect for tight Edwardian cupboards.
- Heat pump systems - energy-efficient upgrades eligible for Victorian government rebates.
- Solar hot water - ideal for north-facing Yarraville rooflines in the inner west.
Same-day hot water repairs available. No hot water tonight? Call us - we carry common parts on every van.
Yarraville's established trees and mature gardens - particularly around Cruickshank Park and Yarraville Gardens, send roots straight into ageing clay pipe joints. The village's older drainage infrastructure wasn't built for today's demands, and tree root intrusion is the number one cause of blocked drains we see in this suburb.
We use high-definition CCTV drain cameras to inspect your pipes before we start any work. You'll see exactly what's going on - no guesswork, no unnecessary digging. From there, we clear blockages with high-pressure hydro-jetting and can reline damaged sections without excavating your courtyard or heritage garden.
Our Yarraville Drain Clearing Process:
- 1. CCTV camera inspection to locate the blockage and assess pipe condition
- 2. High-pressure hydro-jetting to clear roots, grease and debris
- 3. Post-clean camera check to confirm the drain is 100% clear
- 4. Written report with footage - perfect for strata and insurance claims
Fixed pricing on all drain work. You'll know the cost before we start.
Common Heritage Home Issues in Yarraville
Old Clay Pipes
Victorian-era clay pipes crack and collapse, causing blockages
Tree Root Intrusion
Established gardens mean mature tree roots infiltrate old pipes
Mixed Pipe Materials
Decades of repairs create incompatible material junctions
Terrace Access
Shared walls and narrow access make repairs complex
"Our Edwardian near the Sun Theatre had galvanised pipes that kept bursting. Joel replaced the lot with copper, worked around our original bathroom tiles and left the place spotless. Can't recommend them enough."
