Sink and Mixer Repairs
Dripping spouts, stiff handles, leaking base plates and worn cartridges swapped or reseated, with the mixer pressure-tested before we pack up so the sink behaves like new on the day.
North Lakes Plumbing covers every kitchen job in North Lakes: dripping mixers, blocked sinks, dishwasher connections and under-sink leaks, with a fixed quote before any work starts and licensed plumbing and gasfitting behind it.
If we're late, $100 comes off your bill

Kitchens collect the whole trade in one room: water, waste, gas for the cooktop and the appliances in between. That is why one call to North Lakes Plumbing usually covers the lot, from tap repairs to appliance connections.

Building here began in 1999 and ran on through the 2000s, so the first mixers, dishwasher points and braided hoses under the sinks all passed the twenty-year mark in the same few years.
Family kitchens push fat and scraps into a short branch line, and that fat solidifies first where the water cools, which is the trap directly under the bowl.
Westfield North Lakes opened in 2003 while those first kitchens were going in, which dates a lot of the original tapware still holding sinks together today.
Whatever the kitchen is doing wrong, it lands on one of four jobs, and each gets a fixed price before a single tool leaves the bag, so you approve everything up front:

Dripping spouts, stiff handles, leaking base plates and worn cartridges swapped or reseated, with the mixer pressure-tested before we pack up so the sink behaves like new on the day.

New dishwashers plumbed into the existing water and waste points, with the drain clamped properly, the hose routed without kinks and a leak test run before the first cycle starts.

We trace drips to the source, whether a perished hose, a loose trap ring or a weeping outlet, replace the failed part and dry-test the whole cupboard floor afterwards.

Grease, food scraps and soap residue cleared from the trap and branch by hand or with the right tool, then flushed so the line runs clear through to the main.
$0 call-out fees, available 24/7, and same-day where we can.

Water rising in the bowl usually points to grease or scraps lodged in the trap or branch, and clearing it early keeps the overflow from reaching the cupboard floor below.
Drips from the spout mean the cartridge inside has worn after years of daily kitchen use, and fitting a replacement stops the waste without changing the whole mixer tap unit.
Sour smells from the drain point to food sitting in the trap or a seal gone dry, and a cleaned trap plus a checked seal clears the odour at its source.
Dampness on the cupboard floor traces to a split hose, a trap ring that has worked loose or a joint weeping slowly, and catching it early saves the cabinet and the floor beneath.

A kitchen fault never stays in the kitchen, and the longer it runs the more it costs beyond the pipe, so here is what a quick repair actually protects:
A slow weep under the sink swells chipboard cabinet bases fast, and replacement cabinetry costs far more than the fitting that caused it. Caught early, it stays a parts-only job rather than a burst pipe emergency.
Unitywater meters everything that passes through, and a dripping mixer or weeping joint runs that meter day and night. A small repair shows up as a smaller bill within a cycle or two.
Grease that clears the trap keeps building further down, and what starts as a slow sink can finish as a blocked drain needing the drainage team. If water is going missing somewhere you cannot see, our leak detection service finds it.

Call (07) 3523 6428 and explain what's happening in North Lakes. A few quick questions let us load the right parts for the first visit.

Flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees, agreed before any work starts. Once you approve it, we get going.

We isolate the line, clear or replace what failed, swap tired washers and braided hoses, then run the sink and the dishwasher through a full cycle with everything back on.

Use card or EFTPOS on site when the job is finished, or ask us about Fix now, pay later.

Every kitchen job gets the same treatment whether it is one dripping mixer or a full disconnect for a renovation, and the quote covers the lot before we start.
Jobs in North Lakes come with zero call-out fees, and there's no extra fee for nights, weekends or public holidays.

The work is backed by our Fix-It-or-It's-Free guarantee (T&Cs apply), and if we're late, $100 comes off your bill.
Every job is handled by a licensed plumber under QBCC No: 15024607, with a lifetime labour warranty on the labour.
Locally owned and operated, licensed and insured, with flat-rate pricing.
Wherever a job sits, our plumbers deliver the same licensed kitchen work, covering the estate in full plus its neighbouring suburbs: Mango Hill and Rothwell alongside, Kallangur and Dakabin, and Deception Bay.
Because the blockage sits in the sink's own branch, usually grease or food scraps solidified in the trap, and the laundry line reaches the main by a separate path entirely.
No, because fat cools and sticks further down the line no matter how hot the tap runs; bin solid fat and wipe pans before rinsing to keep the branch clear.
Only for overflows onto public land or blockages hitting several properties; the pipe between your kitchen and its inspection point is yours, so a single blocked sink stays a private job.
Yes if original, because the braided connectors fitted through the 2000s are old enough to split, and a burst under the sink runs unchecked while the house sits empty.
We can, because we check the water tap, drain clamp and hose route, connect and test for leaks, and make sure the wastewater clamps to the drain before the first wash runs.
Call (07) 3523 6428, tell us what the kitchen is doing and whether anything is leaking now, and we will set a time and quote the job before work begins.
