Plumber Gold Coast

What sets us apart from other Gold Coast plumbers is our commitment to customer satisfaction. We’re a family-run business that offers upfront pricing, we take pride in providing friendly and reliable plumbing services.

We have over 40 years of experience in the plumbing industry and are dedicated to providing our customers with the highest quality service. DCM Plumbing is thrilled to also provide fast and reliable same-day service with a $0 call-out fee*.

*We don’t charge call out fees. We assess the plumbing issue and give an upfront price to fix it. If you decide not to proceed with the repairs, a diagnostic fee will apply.

Prices for a new hot water system start from $1350. We can install any brand of hot water system, however we usually recommend Aquamax. These units come with a 10-year cylinder warranty. When a new unit is installed it has to be brought up to current AS3500 plumbing standards – we take care of all of that for you. 

If your water temperature fluctuates when in use, this is a common sign that the tempering valve to your unit is faulty and needs to be replaced. Regular maintenance of hot water systems can extend their lifespan and improve efficiency. If you lose hot water suddenly, it can be treated as an emergency repair, particularly for families or businesses that need hot water to keep a property or business running smoothly.

Yes, we are available 24 hours a day for emergencies, not for convenience (we won’t come out for a drippy tap at midnight!).

Emergencies can include:

• Burst pipes
• Major flooding
• Sewer leaks
• Serious water leaks
• Urgent gas-related issues

Water leaks can cause rapid damage if left unattended and may create health and safety risks, especially if water reaches electrical areas or leads to mould. If you’ve had a significant leak, it’s generally best to contact a plumber and your insurance provider as soon as possible so you can document what happened and minimise further damage. A burst pipe can escalate quickly, so isolating the water supply early is one of the best first steps.

Blocked stormwater drains can also trigger flooding during heavy rain and can become more disruptive than a standard sewer blockage. If you’re ever unsure whether it’s an emergency, early action is usually the safest move, and it helps prevent avoidable damage and costly repairs. As a basic precaution, make sure you know where your main shut-off valve is so you can isolate the water supply quickly if needed.

Yes, if you have a problem with blocked drains, we are your local Gold Coast drain specialists.

For stubborn blockages, we can use high-pressure drain cleaning equipment to clear build-up, debris, and other obstructions. When we need a clearer picture of what’s happening inside the line, CCTV drain cameras can help locate the blockage from above ground, reducing guesswork and helping us target the right fix faster.

Blocked drains can pose a health hazard, and stormwater drains can overflow quickly in heavy rain, so it’s best to book a reliable plumber early.

Stormwater blockages can also lead to flooding if they aren’t addressed, especially during storms. To reduce the chance of future clogs, simple habits like keeping gutters and downpipes clear, can make a big difference.

Yes, we can help with leaking taps, leaking pipes, and suspected hidden leaks. Even a small drip can increase your water bills over time, and unattended leaks can cause water damage that becomes far more costly than the repair itself. Because water leaks are also a common reason homeowners need to lodge insurance claims, it’s a good idea to act early and document the issue if the leak is significant. If you’ve got a leaky tap, we can repair or replace worn parts quickly and recommend routine maintenance to help prevent repeat plumbing problems.

If you suspect a hidden leak, one simple check is your water meter, if it changes when all taps and water-using appliances are off, that can indicate a leak. As part of preventative maintenance, it’s also wise to keep an eye on flexible rubber pipe connectors (often under sinks and basins) and replace them periodically to reduce the risk of unexpected failures.

Yes. We support commercial properties with commercial plumbing for offices, retail, and strata, and we can assist with industrial plumbing services where appropriate. Our experienced team keeps plumbing systems safe and compliant so your business running smoothly isn’t interrupted by avoidable plumbing issues.

Yes, we can help with stormwater drains. If you notice overflowing gutters, pooling water, or slow stormwater drainage, book an inspection early to avoid costly repairs.

Our office is based in Burleigh Heads, but we service the entire Gold Coast from north to south.

Start by checking recent customer feedback on Google and Facebook, reviews from the last 6–12 months often give the clearest picture of current service standards. Local experience matters too, a local Gold Coast plumber is more familiar with regional conditions (including coastal corrosion) and can navigate local requirements more smoothly. In Queensland, plumbers must hold a valid QBCC licence to legally perform regulated plumbing and drainage work, so it’s worth verifying licence details on the QBCC register before booking.

To avoid surprises, request a detailed written fixed-price quote rather than a vague estimate. And be cautious of unusually low quotes, they can sometimes signal lower-quality parts or essential steps being left out, which may cost more in the long run.

A reputable plumbing team should back their work, which is why many professional plumbers provide a workmanship guarantee covering labour and, where applicable, materials for a set period.

You should also expect appropriate Public Liability Insurance in place, which helps protect your property in the unlikely event of accidental damage. Practically speaking, a well-prepared plumber will keep their vehicle stocked so common issues can be resolved on the spot without unnecessary delays.

Choosing a reliable plumber with fixed pricing and upfront pricing helps avoid surprises and supports long-term customer satisfaction. Find out more in our blog article 8 Ways to Choose a Trustworthy Plumber.
