Plumbing Without the Runaround
It starts with a slow drain, or a weird rattle in the pipes. Then the hot water cuts out—usually at the worst time. That’s life on the Sunshine Coast. From Buderim to Bli Bli, homes here deal with shifting ground, salty air, and the odd “it-was-fine-yesterday” surprise. At Allman’s Painting, we’re not new to this. Our crew knows their way around local plumbing, if it’s fixing a dodgy fitting or rewiring a whole system that’s been patched too many times.
We sort leaks, blockages, busted pipes, and renovations, and we don’t overcomplicate things. Just solid plumbing, honest chats, and clear pricing. We’ll explain what’s going on in plain terms, show you what needs fixing, and get it sorted with minimal mess. Sunshine Coast locals call us because we keep it simple and get it done. Want to tee up a time? Ring us on 0450 319 027, we’ll be there.
With the Coast, Not Against It
You don’t get away with cutting corners here. Salt in the air eats away at fittings. Underground pipes shift with the seasons. And older homes? They’ve got surprises behind every wall. That’s why our approach starts with looking properly, not guessing. We use pressure tests, cameras, and thermal tools to check things the right way before lifting a spanner.
Whether it’s a heritage home in need of gentle hands, or a new build needing the finishing touches, we adapt. We use quality materials, gear that works fast, and we clean as we go.
If you’ve got a septic setup, tank water, or just a hot water unit that’s on its last legs. We’ve been there. And while we’re good with tools, we’re better at working around your day. You’ll get clear timelines, polite tradies, and results that don’t need fixing again in six months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it okay to pour boiling water down the sink to clear a blockage?
Boiling water is generally safe for metal pipes, but it can warp or damage PVC piping, especially in older homes. If you're trying to clear a grease build-up, hot (not boiling) water followed by baking soda and vinegar is gentler.
For stubborn or recurring blockages, it's best to avoid DIY fixes and call in a professional to prevent damage.
What causes a toilet to flush weakly or incompletely?
A weak flush might be caused by a low water level in the cistern, a partially blocked rim jet, or sediment clogging the internal mechanisms. Older toilets are more prone to these issues.
Adjusting the fill level, cleaning out jets, or replacing worn parts often restores full function. If it's still sluggish, the blockage could be further down the line.
Can I use rainwater for indoor plumbing fixtures?
Yes, but only if the system is set up correctly. Rainwater can be filtered and used for toilets, laundry, and even showers with the right treatment system.
You’ll need pumps, filters, and backflow prevention to meet plumbing standards. It's a great way to cut mains usage, but it must be installed and maintained properly to be safe.
