Plumbing for new homes, builders and owner-builders

Our process
How our new home plumbing process works
Every build is different, but the quoting and installation process is much smoother when the plumbing scope is clear early.
Send plans, photos or project details
Upload your floor plans, site plan, fixture selections, hydraulic plans if available, gas appliance details and any site photos or notes.
We review the plumbing scope
We check the likely drainage, water, gas, hot water and fit-off requirements so the quote is based on the real project, not a generic allowance.
You receive clear pricing
We provide a practical quote with clear inclusions, assumptions and any details that may need confirmation before work starts.
We complete the work in stages
Once approved, we coordinate the relevant plumbing stages around the build, from underground works through to final fit-off and compliance.
Cost and quote factors
How much does new home plumbing cost?
New home plumbing costs depend on the size of the home, number of wet areas, drainage requirements, site conditions, gas requirements, hot water system, fixture selections, slab or floor type, service locations and access.
Use the estimator above for a rough budget, then upload your plans for proper pricing. A formal quote can only be confirmed once the plans, selections and site requirements have been reviewed.
More bathrooms, ensuites and wet areas usually increase the plumbing scope
Soil type and below-ground drainage conditions can affect excavation-related work
Gas, hot water, water filtration, outdoor kitchens and rainwater systems may add extra stages
Fixture selections and appliance locations can change rough-in and fit-off requirements
Clear plans help reduce assumptions and improve quote accuracy

Risk reduction
Common new build plumbing issues we help prevent
A good new home plumber does more than install pipework. Early planning can help avoid delays, rework and missed allowances once the build is underway.
Missed gas or hot water requirements
Gas appliance locations, hot water position and service access should be considered before rough-in.
Fixture selections not matching plans
Tapware, toilets, vanities, baths, showers and appliances can affect setout, rough-in and fit-off.
Drainage and stormwater surprises
Below-ground works can be affected by soil type, falls, connection points and site access.
Unclear scope between trades
Builders, owners and plumbers need a shared understanding of what is included at each stage.
