Expert sustainable home improvements solutions for West Footscray homes and businesses - fixed pricing before we start, licensed plumbers, work backed by a lifetime workmanship warranty.
Finding a reliable plumber in West Footscray shouldn't be difficult. Whether you need a quick tap repair, a full hot water system replacement, emergency drain clearing, or gas fitting for a renovation, Hobsons Bay Plumbing delivers professional results with upfront fixed pricing and genuine local knowledge.
Most of our work in West Footscray involves everyday residential plumbing - the jobs that keep homes running smoothly. This includes tap repairs and replacements (dripping taps, stiff mixers, leaking outdoor taps), toilet repairs (running cisterns, weak flushes, cracked pans), sink and basin installations, washing machine and dishwasher connections, and water pressure troubleshooting.
For older West Footscray homes, we frequently replace ageing galvanised water pipes with modern copper or PEX piping, upgrade plumbing fixtures to water-efficient WELS-rated products, and resolve issues with legacy plumbing configurations that no longer meet current building codes.
We repair and install all types of hot water systems in West Footscray - gas storage, electric storage, continuous flow (tankless), heat pump, and solar. When your hot water fails, we diagnose the issue and give you honest advice on whether a repair will extend the system's life or if replacement is the smarter investment. We carry popular Rheem, Rinnai, and Bosch units for same-day installations and handle all rebate paperwork for heat pump upgrades.
Blocked drains in West Footscray are diagnosed with CCTV cameras and cleared with high-pressure hydro-jetting. This approach is faster, more thorough, and longer-lasting than traditional drain snakes. You'll see the footage, understand the cause, and receive a fixed price before we start clearing. For damaged pipes, we offer no-dig pipe relining that creates a new pipe inside the old one - no excavation required.
Our licensed gas fitters (Type A) handle gas leak detection, appliance installations (cooktops, heaters, BBQ points), gas line extensions, and compliance certificates. Gas safety inspections and carbon monoxide testing are available for older open-flue heaters. All gas work in West Footscray is certified to Australian Standards with compliance documentation provided on completion.
We provide 24/7 emergency plumbing in West Footscray for burst pipes, gas leaks, sewage backups, and overflowing drains. Our emergency response targets a 1–2 hour arrival window across all West Footscray and surrounding suburbs. Call +61 422 899 490 anytime - day, night, weekends, and public holidays.

Plenty of homes in West Footscray are still running old gas storage hot water, which is usually the single biggest plumbing-related cost on the bill.
Local properties bring tight inner-west blocks, heritage Victorian and Edwardian housing stock and a lot of recent renovation work, and that affects where a heat pump can physically go and how noise is managed near neighbours.
We install heat pump hot water with Victorian rebate assistance and handle the paperwork. Before you commit, we give you an honest payback estimate for your actual usage.
Rainwater tanks make sense here when they are plumbed to toilets and laundry, not just the garden. Slimline options work on narrow blocks where space is tight.
Small changes add up: WELS-rated showers and tapware, dual flush upgrades and a pressure limiting valve routinely cut both water and hot water energy use.
We cover Moonee Ponds, Seddon, Tottenham too. If an upgrade will not pay for itself, we will tell you. Call +61 422 899 490.

Used 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.
