We Always Get the Job Done

Stephen purchased a property in Ormond and found that there were a couple of plumbing issues that he wanted rectified, with the largest issue being that during heavy rains the guttering would overflow.

New to the area, Stephen found O’Shea Plumbing on the internet and had a quick read of some of the positive reviews from clients. He decided to call our Mt Waverley base and organised a plumber to come out.

The next day Andrew arrived and introduced himself and O’Shea Plumbing. Andrew spent time checking the existing set up of the storm water drain, including what was in the street. Andrew came up with a good option for Stephen and jumped in his van to write up a quote.

This quote was sent through and discussed with Stephen who wanted to chat to his partner when they got home. Over the weekend, Stephen contacted O’Shea Plumbing and gave the green light for the works.

On the following Monday, Andrew organised materials to be delivered on the day of the repair and met Nathaniel (another O’Shea plumber) on site to discuss what was required throughout the day.

Nathaniel replaced a section of storm water drain from the front corner of the house all the way to the front fence, this removed a very old section of clay pipe which had deteriorated to the point of no return. Nathaniel also cleared the remainder of the storm water drain on the property, giving the drain the best chance to discharge the rain water as quickly and safely as possible.

Stephen was pleased with the quality of work completed by the O’Shea team and grateful that his gutters would no longer overflow in heavy downpours.

Another case study

Grant envisioned many day lazing by his gas heated pool swimming all year round. However, after a couple of years he found that the heating was not working as it should have been. Every now and again the heater would cut off when not yet at the desired temperature and would take longer than recommended to heat up.

Grant had another gas company replace the existing piping which unfortunately did not have the desired effect.

Jeff (O’Shea Plumbing’s gas specialist) was organised to pop over and have a look at the situation. Jeff noticed the distance from the pool pump to the gas meter was quite a distance and wondered if the gas pipe was sized correctly to accommodate an adequate flow of gas.

Jeff did a series of tests and found that the gas piping throughout the house was undersized and offered a couple of solutions.

Grant chose the option to run one new gas pipe from the gas meter to the pool heater. O’Shea Plumbing completed the required works, including digging a long trench to correctly bury the copper gas pipe, installing the gas pipes under the existing planter boxes, and back filling the required trench. There is a 25 year warranty on all joins in the pipe work.

Grant is now living the dream of the heated pool all year round. Great work team!
