Plumbing, drainage and gas, all one bloke
No subcontracting the gas out to somebody else and no waiting on another schedule. Pick what's gone wrong and we'll tell you what it takes to fix it.
Emergency plumbing
Burst pipes, no water, sewage backing up, or a gas smell you don't like. We pick up after hours and tell you straight away whether it can wait.
Emergency plumbingGas plumbing
Heaters, cooktops, gas hot water, BBQ points and compliance certificates. Licensed gasfitting, in a climate where your heater does the heavy lifting.
Gas plumbingHot water systems
Repairs, replacements and heat pump upgrades. Same-day changeovers where we can. A cold shower in Blackheath in July is its own emergency.
Hot water systemsBlocked drains
Jetting, camera inspections and root cutting. Mountain blocks mean big trees over old clay pipes. We find the cause rather than clearing it once.
Blocked drainsLeak detection
Water bill jumped? Damp patch spreading? Electronic and thermal detection, so we open up one spot in the wall instead of five.
Leak detectionBathroom renovations
Full rough-in and fit-off, working alongside your builder or tiler. Compliance handled, waterproofing coordinated, no surprises at handover.
Bathroom renovationsYou live 1,040 metres up. Your plumbing knows it.
Katoomba averages a 2.6 °C minimum in July and runs about 7 °C colder than Sydney, with settled snow most years. Frost splits pipes, heaters get worked hard, and hot water systems fail in the exact week you need them most.
We service gas heaters before winter, lag exposed pipework, and carry the parts that fail up here. A plumber driving up from Penrith is guessing at a climate they don't live in.
Across the Upper Mountains, every day
Based in Katoomba, so the villages other firms treat as too far are a short run for us. Pick your suburb for what's specific to it.
Also covering Lawson, Hazelbrook, Bullaburra and Woodford. Call and ask.

“I was very impressed with Aidan and his team. He was extremely helpful and clear in communication. Aidan managed to diagnose the problem pretty quickly and solved the problem with our water tank. He was reliable, professional and an absolute pleasure to do business with. He was also very reasonably priced.”
“Aidan quickly responded to a last minute call to reconnect our gas heaters. He also looked at our bathroom and provided some helpful advice. Was friendly, prompt to respond and to get the job done! I can see why he was recommended to me in the first place.”
“We were in a terrible situation and struggling to find assistance. Upper Mountains Plumbing and Gas absolutely saved the day. The guys were professional, fast and friendly. There were no hidden costs or attempts to make more money, just wonderful, accurate service.”
