Sink and Mixer Repairs

Kitchen Plumbing Nearby
The kitchen hides most of its plumbing behind cupboards and under benches. When a joint lets go, the water lands exactly where you store things, so it pays to have someone who arrives with the right fittings on board.
Racing Era Kitchens and Their Pipes
Grease meets old pipe
The cafes and takeaways near the Zillman Road shops send fat into the same sewers that serve the houses around them, and fat sets hard in old pipe, so a kitchen branch can choke even when yours is careful.
Galvanised under the bench
Kitchens built before 1940 and through the postwar wave often still run a galvanised branch to the sink, and that pipe rusts narrow inside until the mixer runs weak no matter what you do.
Ground that moves
The soil here runs to alluvial deposits and reactive clay, which swells in the wet months and shrinks in the dry, so a trap joint that was sound last winter can weep this one.
Kitchen Work We Take On
Kitchen plumbing covers the bench tap, the trap beneath it and every fitting in between, and these are the jobs we take on, from a weeping mixer to a full rework:
Blocked Kitchen Drains
Grease, rice and coffee grounds pack the trap and the branch beyond it, and we clear the line by hand or with the right tool, then explain exactly what caused the choke.
Dishwasher Connections
We connect dishwashers to the cold or hot supply, fix drain hoses that siphon or kink, and stop the flood that appears when a door seal or inlet valve fails.
Waste and Trap Work
Older sinks carry brass or galvanised traps that corrode and weep at the threads, so we replace the failing section with clean new pipe and reseat every joint we disturb.
Gas Cooktop Points
Cooktops, ovens and rangehoods need licensed gas work, and we run new points, test old bayonets and certificate the line, which matters in houses from the racing years carrying aged threaded pipe.
Kitchen Renovations
We rough in new sink positions, shift drainage where the structure permits and hook up every fitting, whether the kitchen is a fresh build or a refresh inside an older weatherboard.

Common Kitchen Faults
Most kitchen calls land on one of four faults, and each one costs less to put right early, before the cupboard floor has gone soft:
Water Under the Sink
Water pooling under the sink usually comes from a weeping trap joint or a perished hose, and either one is a quick, simple fix once the cupboard is emptied out.
The Sink Drains Slowly
A sink that drains slowly has grease or debris sitting in the trap and the line beyond, and we clear it, camera the pipe if needed, and name the exact cause.
Dishwasher Flooding
A dishwasher flooding the floor points to a split inlet hose, a failed door seal or a drain hose that has slipped, and all three are straightforward to put right.
The Tap Runs Weak
A tap running weak at the kitchen bench often traces to a rusted galvanised branch under the floor, and replacing that section brings the pressure back without touching the mixer.
Why Kitchen Plumbing Matters
The kitchen carries the busiest water in the house, and when it fails the damage spreads fast across cupboards and floors, so here is what getting it right actually buys you:
It protects the cabinetry
A slow weep under a sink sits in chipboard until the shelf sags and the vinyl lifts. Caught early, the repair is a fitting and an hour, not a carpenter.
It keeps the drain honest
A branch line cleared properly, and inspected on camera where the blockage keeps coming back, stops the cycle of a sink that chokes every few months. See the CCTV drain inspections page for what a camera run shows.
It keeps the gas safe
A cooktop point is gas work, and Plumber Hendra tests and certificates every line we touch, the same as we do on a full gas fitting job.

Kitchen Questions From Hendra
Call (07) 3067 4276Why does my Hendra kitchen sink drain slower than the laundry tub?
Fat and food scraps set solid inside a kitchen branch far faster than laundry suds ever will, and a roughened old pipe wall gives that buildup somewhere to cling.
Can I put a dishwasher in an older Hendra house?
Yes, in almost every case, because we tie into the existing supply and drain points and reroute the hose, so the only real limits are cupboard space and floor access.
Does Urban Utilities own the pipe under my kitchen?
The street's water main and public sewer are Urban Utilities assets, while the pipework between your kitchen and the connection point is owner territory, so any blockage on that private stretch is ours to clear.
Do the food outlets around Zillman Road affect my kitchen drain?
The cafes and takeaways along the Zillman Road shopping strip tip grease into sewers that also serve nearby houses, and fat setting hard near your boundary can slow a branch feeding the same main.
Should kitchen taps in an older Hendra house be kept or replaced?
We keep solid brassware wherever the body is sound, because a reseat and new washers run like new, and we only suggest replacing a mixer where the casting is cracked or perished.
