Plumber Northgate
Plumbing for newer homes, townhouses and apartments
Northgate is one of the newer suburbs in Adelaide's inner north, developed from the late 1990s between Northfield, Oakden and Lightsview. Its homes and townhouses are younger than most in Adelaide, but many of the original fittings are now 20 or more years old. Adam Plumbing and Gas has been working across Adelaide since 1997.
Original hot water systems
A hot water system installed when the house was built is probably at or past the end of its life. Warning signs are rust, water at the base, rumbling noises or showers that run cold sooner than they used to. We repair and replace hot water systems.
Townhouses and shared walls
Many homes in Northgate and Lightsview are townhouses or apartments with shared walls and, in some cases, shared services. A leak can show up next door before it shows up in your home. We find leaks without opening up more than we need to, and work with strata and community corporation managers. See water leak detection and strata plumbing.
Keeping newer plumbing in good shape
Newer homes still get blocked drains, worn tap washers and leaking toilet cisterns. We fix leaking pipes, taps and toilets and offer planned maintenance for owners and managers who would rather prevent problems than react to them.
Nearby suburbs we also cover
Northfield, Oakden, Lightsview, Gilles Plains, Hillcrest, Enfield and Greenacres, plus Prospect and Modbury.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long should a hot water system last?
It depends on the type, water quality and maintenance. If yours is over 10 years old and showing warning signs, it is worth having it checked.
There is a damp patch on the wall I share with my neighbour. Can you find the leak?
Yes. We use leak detection equipment to find the source before opening walls, which keeps the repair smaller.
Do you work with community and strata corporations?
Yes. We work with strata and community corporation managers on shared plumbing and maintenance.

★★★★★Personable, professional and meticulous service. The staff I encountered were all pleasant and honest. The plumber worked hard to repair my old unit, and was almost apologetic when he couldn't get the 20 plus year old unit to work. The changeover to the new system was handled efficiently and all mess was cleaned up.
