Blocked drains, gas fitting, gas hot water and everyday plumbing repairs for Ipswich homes and businesses. Straight answers, fair prices, and we stick at it until it's fixed.
We are very happy customers! We got our gas hot water system fixed- it would not stay lit. Ricky responded quickly and was able to come over and repair it same afternoon as the initial call which helped us greatly. Finally can have a hot shower again. We will be sticking with Ricky as our go to plumber :)

This was my second time using Ricky’s services. He is responsive, gets the job done and good pricing. Would highly recommend Ricky for any work.
Google review, 2026★★★★★
We used Ricky's services today, and couldn't have asked for better professionalism. He well and truly over delivered - and despite a complex problem, never gave up until he had it solved. Very helpful all round, explained everything and a great tradesman in to the bargain. See you next time Ricky

FAQ
Straight answers.
Can't see your question? Call or text 0417 637 304.
Where are you based?
We're based in Ipswich, Queensland, and we come to you. There's no shopfront, so the quickest way to reach us is to call or text 0417 637 304.
What are your hours?
We're open 7 days. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 6am to 6pm, Thursday 6:30am to 6pm, and Saturday and Sunday 6am to 5pm.
Do you do urgent or emergency call-outs?
Call 0417 637 304 for urgent jobs and we'll tell you straight away how quickly we can get there. One customer's gas hot water system was repaired the same afternoon they called.
Are you a licensed gasfitter?
Yes. We work as plumbers and qualified gasfitters, and gas installations are completed to Australian safety standards and compliance requirements. Ask for licence details when you call and we'll provide them.
Can you fix a gas hot water system that won't stay lit?
Yes. Gas hot water repairs are a regular job for us. Call with the brand and what it's doing, and we'll come out, find the fault and fix it.
Do you clear blocked drains?
Yes. Drainage is one of our core services, from a single blocked drain to ongoing water flow problems that keep coming back.
Do you install and repair gas cooktops and appliances?
Yes. Gas installations and gas repairs are part of the job, including stovetops and gas flow problems. Gas work in Queensland must be done by a licensed gasfitter, so it's not a job for a mate with a spanner.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We look after residential and commercial properties, with repairs, installations and maintenance for both.
How do I get a quote?
Call or text 0417 637 304. A photo of the problem by text helps us tell you what's involved before we arrive.
