Pool plumbing & equipment installation
New pool plumb-ins for builders, repairs to existing pool pipework, equipment relocations and full supply-and-install. Done by us, not passed to a subcontractor — which is why a problem found during a service can usually be fixed on the same visit.

Worth saying up front
Pool plumbing. Not household plumbing.
A lot of pool services sub out anything involving pipe, and a lot of plumbers treat pools as an occasional sideline. We do the pool side properly and don't pretend to do the rest.
Anything connected to the pool
- Suction and return lines
- Equipment pad pipework
- Pumps, filters and chlorinators
- Heating and salt systems
- Leak diagnosis and repair
The rest of the house
- Bathrooms and kitchens
- Hot water systems
- Roof and stormwater drainage
- Blocked sewer lines
- Gas fitting
The problem gets fixed once
When the people servicing your pool are also the people who can open up the pipework, a dropping water level or a pump losing prime doesn't turn into three visits and two trades blaming each other.
The work
From a new pool's first pipe to a pump that's had enough.
New pool plumb-ins
The full plumbing stage for a new concrete pool — suction and return lines set out and run before shotcrete, through to the equipment pad. Builders: we can take the whole pool plumbing stage off your critical path.
Talk about a build
Equipment installation
Pumps, filters, chlorinators, salt and mineral systems — supplied, installed and commissioned. We'll tell you honestly whether your existing gear has life left in it before quoting a replacement.

Worth a call
Signs the pipework is the problem.
Most pool plumbing faults announce themselves well before they become expensive. These are the ones worth acting on early.
01
The pump struggles to prime
If the pump takes longer and longer to pull water, or loses prime once it's warm, there's usually air getting in on the suction side — a lid seal, a cracked fitting, or a line that's drawing air under load.
02
Water level drops faster than evaporation
A pool losing noticeably more than the rest of the street in the same weather is usually losing it underground. Worth finding early, while it's a repair rather than a dig.
03
Bubbles from the returns
A steady stream of air coming back into the pool means the system is pulling air in somewhere. It wears the pump out and stops the filter doing its job properly.
Equipment we supply
Brands we install and stand behind.
We're not tied to one supplier, so the recommendation depends on your pool and your budget rather than what we happen to stock.

Common questions
Pool plumbing — the usual questions.
Do you do general household plumbing?
No. Pool and pool equipment plumbing only — bathrooms, hot water systems, drainage and gas aren't what we do. If it's connected to your pool, it's ours; if it isn't, you want a general plumber.
Can you work with my pool builder?
Yes, and a good part of our plumbing work is exactly that. We can take the pool plumbing stage of a new build and work to the builder's program rather than holding it up.
My pool is losing water. Can you find the leak?
Usually. The first job is working out whether it's actually a leak or evaporation, then whether it's the shell, the fittings or the underground lines. Call early — a line that's weeping is a much smaller job than one that's let go.
Should I repair my pump or replace it?
Depends on the age and what's failed. A seal or a capacitor on an otherwise sound pump is worth doing; a motor that's gone on a pump already near end of life usually isn't. We'll tell you which one you're looking at before quoting a replacement.
Do you install heating?
Yes — heat pumps and the pipework to run them, as part of the equipment pad. Whether it's worth it depends on your pool size, how you use it and how long you want the season to be, so it's worth a conversation before committing.
Do you service pools as well?
Yes — roughly half our work. See pool servicing for the regular maintenance plans, from $65 a visit.
