Our Full Range of Melbourne Plumbing Services
Blocked Drains Melbourne
A blocked drain is one of the most common plumbing problems Melbourne homeowners face. Slow draining sinks, gurgling toilets, and pools of water on the lawn are all warning signs that should not be ignored. Left untreated, a blocked drain can lead to sewage backup, pipe damage, and significant water damage to your property.
Our plumbers use professional-grade high-pressure water jetting equipment and CCTV drain cameras to locate and clear blockages quickly and effectively. Whether it is hair and grease in the bathroom pipes, tree roots infiltrating your stormwater or sewer, or a collapsed section of drain, we have the tools and experience to diagnose the problem accurately and clear it the same day.
We service blocked drains across all Melbourne suburbs including Melbourne CBD, the inner west, western growth corridor, and Melbourne’s south-east. For urgent blocked drains, call 03 9993 7122 — we offer same-day service across Melbourne.
Emergency Plumbing Melbourne
When plumbing goes wrong at the worst possible time, you need a plumber who answers the phone and shows up fast. Our emergency plumbing service operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across Melbourne. We treat every emergency with urgency — because we know that a burst pipe or an overflowing toilet is not just an inconvenience, it is a genuine threat to your home or business.
Common plumbing emergencies we attend include burst or leaking water mains, blocked sewers causing sewage backup, gas leaks requiring immediate isolation, hot water system failures, overflowing toilets, and flooding caused by failed internal pipes. Our service vehicles are fully stocked with the parts and equipment needed to handle most emergencies on the first visit.
Leak Detection Melbourne
A hidden water leak can go undetected for months, causing structural damage, mould growth, and inflated water bills. Our leak detection service uses advanced acoustic detection equipment and thermal imaging technology to locate leaks inside walls, under concrete slabs, and in underground pipes — without unnecessary damage to your home or garden.
Early detection and repair of water leaks is one of the best investments you can make in your property. If you notice unexplained increases in your water bill, damp patches on walls or ceilings, or the sound of running water when taps are off, call us immediately. The sooner we find the leak, the less damage it can do.
Hot Water System Installation and Repairs Melbourne
A functioning hot water system is essential to daily life. When your hot water fails, it creates immediate disruption. King and Sons Plumbing installs and repairs all types of hot water systems, including electric storage, gas storage, gas continuous flow (instantaneous), and solar hot water systems.
We work with all major brands including Rheem, Dux, Rinnai, Bosch, Thermann, Vulcan, and more. Our plumbers can advise you on the most energy-efficient and cost-effective hot water solution for your home or business, whether you are replacing a failed system or upgrading to a more efficient model.
If your hot water system is more than 8 to 10 years old and showing signs of wear — rust-coloured water, inconsistent temperatures, or a leaking pressure relief valve — it is often more economical to replace it than repair it. We provide free, honest advice on the best course of action for your situation.
Toilet Repairs Melbourne
A constantly running toilet can waste thousands of litres of water every month, significantly impacting your water bill. A blocked or overflowing toilet is an immediate hygiene issue. Our plumbers handle all types of toilet repairs in Melbourne — from replacing worn cistern components and fixing slow-filling cisterns, to clearing blockages and installing brand-new toilet suites.
We carry a comprehensive range of replacement parts and toilet suites on our vehicles, meaning most toilet repairs can be completed in a single visit without the need for a parts run. If you are considering upgrading to a water-efficient dual-flush toilet, we can advise on the best options for your bathroom layout and plumbing configuration.
Gas Fitting Melbourne
Gas plumbing requires specialist training and certification that goes beyond standard plumbing qualifications. Our gasfitting services cover the full range of gas work — installation of gas appliances, connection of new gas lines, gas pressure testing, gas leak detection, and repair of existing gas infrastructure.
We service natural gas and LPG systems for residential and commercial properties. All our gas work is completed in strict accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZS 5601 and the relevant Victorian gas safety regulations. If you smell gas at your property, evacuate immediately, do not use switches or open flames, and call us and your gas provider.
Leaking Tap Repairs Melbourne
A dripping tap is more than just annoying — a single leaking tap can waste up to 20,000 litres of water per year. Our plumbers fix all types of leaking taps including mixer taps, ball valves, pillar taps, and outdoor garden taps. We carry a comprehensive range of washers, cartridges, and tap spindles to handle repairs on the spot, across all major tap brands.
If your tap body is deteriorating or you would like to upgrade to a modern style, we can also supply and install new tapware to match your existing bathroom or kitchen aesthetic.
Stormwater Plumbing Melbourne
Melbourne’s weather can be unpredictable, and a properly functioning stormwater drainage system is essential to protecting your property from water damage. Poor stormwater drainage leads to pooling water on lawns and driveways, erosion, water ingress into basements and subfloors, and damage to foundations.
We design, install, and repair stormwater drainage systems for residential and commercial properties. Our services include installation of pit and pipe systems, connection of downpipes to stormwater mains, installation of polypipe and rubble drain systems, and repair of collapsed or blocked stormwater pipes.
Roof Plumbing Melbourne
Your roof’s plumbing plays a critical role in managing rainwater away from your home. Our roof plumbing services cover installation and repair of gutters and downpipes, box gutters, roof flashing, and valley gutters. We also handle fascia and eave gutters on all roof types including tiled, Colorbond, and corrugated iron.
Blocked gutters and failing downpipes are a leading cause of water ingress into homes. We recommend an annual inspection and clean to ensure your roof drainage is working correctly, especially before Melbourne’s wetter months.
Plumbing Maintenance Melbourne
Preventative plumbing maintenance is the most cost-effective way to protect your property. A routine plumbing inspection by a licensed plumber can identify minor issues before they become expensive problems — things like early signs of pipe corrosion, small leaks that have not yet caused visible damage, and hot water system components approaching the end of their service life.
We offer maintenance inspection packages for residential homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial clients. Our maintenance reports provide a clear summary of the condition of your plumbing systems, any recommended repairs, and priority rankings to help you budget effectively.

Commercial Plumbing Melbourne
King and Sons Plumbing works with businesses of all sizes across Melbourne — from small retail shops and cafes to medium-sized offices, warehouses, and industrial facilities. Commercial plumbing has unique requirements around compliance, timing, and minimal disruption to operations.
Our commercial services include routine maintenance contracts, fit-out plumbing for new tenancies, hot water system installations for commercial applications, grease trap installation and maintenance, backflow prevention device installation and annual testing, and emergency callout services for commercial properties.
We understand that a plumbing failure in a commercial setting can mean lost revenue and significant disruption. That is why our commercial clients receive priority scheduling and detailed service reporting for their records.
If you manage a strata building, a retail precinct, an industrial site, or a commercial office building in Melbourne, talk to us about a tailored maintenance agreement.
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Melbourne Plumbing Services
How quickly can you get to my property in an emergency?
For plumbing emergencies in Melbourne, we aim to be at your property within 60 to 90 minutes of your call, depending on your location and current job load. We operate 24/7, including weekends and public holidays, so there is always a plumber available to take your call and dispatch to your location.
Do you charge a callout fee?
We provide upfront pricing for all our services. Any applicable callout fees are disclosed before we come out, so you know exactly what to expect. We charge per job, not by the hour, which means you will not be penalised if a job takes longer than expected due to unforeseen complications.
Are your plumbers licensed in Victoria?
Yes. All of our plumbers hold current Victorian plumbing licences issued by the Victorian Building Authority (VBA). We are fully licensed and insured across all categories of plumbing work, including water supply, drainage, gasfitting, roofing, and mechanical services.
What areas of Melbourne do you service?
We service all of greater Melbourne, with a particularly strong presence in Melbourne’s western suburbs, the Wyndham and Melton growth corridors, and the inner west. This includes suburbs like Point Cook, Werribee, Tarneit, Caroline Springs, Melton, Hoppers Crossing, Williamstown, Altona, Footscray, and many more. View our full service area list for a complete breakdown.
Can you repair my hot water system on the same day?
In most cases, yes. Our service vehicles carry a comprehensive range of hot water system spare parts and components. For many common hot water system faults — such as failed heating elements, faulty thermostats, or failed pressure relief valves — we can repair or replace the component on the first visit. If a full hot water system replacement is needed, we can typically complete this on the same day or schedule it for the following morning.
How do I know if I have a water leak I cannot see?
Common signs of a hidden water leak include an unexplained increase in your water bill, the sound of running water when all taps are off, damp or stained patches on walls, ceilings, or flooring, or areas of unusually lush grass in your garden (indicating a leaking underground pipe). If you notice any of these signs, contact us for a leak detection inspection using our advanced acoustic and thermal imaging equipment.
Do you work on gas appliances?
Yes. We are fully licensed gasfitters in Victoria and work on all types of gas appliances including gas cooktops, ovens, gas heaters, gas hot water systems, and outdoor BBQ connections. All gas work is carried out in compliance with AS/NZS 5601 and Victorian gas safety regulations. If you smell gas, do not use switches — evacuate and call us immediately.
What is your labour guarantee?
We provide a 100% labour guarantee on all work we complete. If you experience any issue related to our workmanship within the warranty period, we will return and rectify it at no charge. The specific warranty period depends on the type of work carried out and is explained in detail on your job completion certificate.
Can you help with plumbing compliance for a rental property?
Absolutely. We work with many Melbourne landlords, property managers, and real estate agents to maintain plumbing compliance across rental properties. This includes annual safety checks, responding to tenant plumbing complaints promptly, and providing detailed reports and certificates of compliance for your records.
