    Outstanding customer service, friendly staff and top work. The guys went above and beyond to help me out and fix my terribly blocked stormwater. I also use them for my evap cooler service and I'll be getting them back for my gas heater. I would definitely recommend them.

    We can’t recommend Ballarat Essential Plumbing highly enough. We were so fortunate to engage with this company when we first moved to Ballarat a couple of years ago and we have used their services since as they are the best. The Team is very professional, personable and take great care in all they do. They are excellent in explaining their recommendations, building confidence and trust for us in proceeding with selections. Their knowledge, plumbing skills and people skills are second to none and we appreciate their very professional and considerate approach in and around our home. They are our ‘forever plumbers’ while we reside in Ballarat.

    I have used Ballarat Essential Plumbing a few times and always find them excellent. Today I needed some work done to kitchen taps. I think it was Zander and a young colleague who came to assist. They were on time, friendly, beautiful manners and explained everything to me. They were efficient, did a great job, taps are great and they were friendly all the way. Well done to Ballarat Essential Plumbing for your great team and professionalism. Would highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions

How much do plumbers typically charge?
Plumbing costs vary significantly depending on the type of job and its complexity. Simple fixture repairs are generally much less than jobs involving pipe replacement, excavation or gas appliance work. Most quotes include a call-out fee, hourly labour and parts, with after-hours or emergency attendance usually attracting higher rates. This page shows live pricing for jobs in your area.
Do plumbers charge call-out fees?
Call-out fees are common and are often used to cover travel and the initial assessment. Plumbers typically add hourly labour and any materials or replacement parts to the call-out fee. After-hours, weekend or emergency attendances are usually charged at higher rates and some small jobs may have a minimum charge.
Do plumbers need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Plumbing work must be carried out by a licensed plumber in every Australian state and territory, and in NSW the regulator is NSW Fair Trading (Building Commission NSW). Plumbers will generally provide their licence number and should be able to supply compliance certificates for regulated work. Look for an ABN, public liability insurance and relevant industry memberships as additional trust signals.
