Preventative Maintenance
Reduce unexpected plumbing problems with routine checks and maintenance.
Many plumbing emergencies start as small issues — a slow drain, a minor leak, or a fitting that’s starting to fail. Wilkinson Plumbing & Gas Fitters offers preventative plumbing maintenance to help reduce surprises, protect your property and keep your plumbing running reliably. Based in Aldinga, we service South Adelaide and the Fleurieu Peninsula.

How we can help
Practical preventative plumbing checks
We tailor maintenance to your property and the issues you’re most likely to face — especially if you’ve had repeat problems in the past.
Maintenance may include
- Checking common leak points (taps, toilets, valves and fittings)
- Inspecting for early signs of blocked drains or slow flow
- Basic checks around hot water systems (performance and visible leaks)
- Stormwater checks before wet weather (grates and obvious blockages)
- Recommendations to reduce repeat call-outs

Had Phil install gas to my Motorhome build. It was hard to find anyone who could do this work & Phil researched what was required for ventilation, products... Happy to recommend him & enjoyed his help & support & was reasonably priced as well.

We have used Phil several times over the past couple of years to replace aged toilet cisterns, install new taps and water filters. Recently we had need to replace our old water heater and Phil did it in quick time, with little notice. At all times Phil has been professional, efficient and responsive to our needs. If you are looking for a plumber that does high quality work, with minimal fuss give Phil a call.
