Wynnum is one of Brisbane’s most iconic bayside suburbs — known for its seaside homes, Queenslander-style houses, and stunning views over Moreton Bay. With a mix of older timber homes, raised post-war cottages, and newer townhouses along the waterfront, Wynnum’s plumbing systems vary widely, and each type comes with its own challenges.
JR Gas & Water has been servicing Wynnum and the wider bayside area for years — from Wynnum North and Manly to Lota and Tingalpa. Whether you need a leaking tap fixed, a drain cleared, or full plumbing for your renovation or new home build, our licensed local plumbers deliver clean, reliable, and long-lasting results.
In Wynnum, the most common plumbing issues stem from ageing infrastructure, coastal air corrosion, and low-lying block drainage. Many older homes still rely on galvanised or copper pipes that have corroded from salt exposure, leading to leaks and discoloured water. Drainage issues are also common, especially in properties closer to the foreshore or Elanora Park, where high water tables can cause slow drains and backflow. Stormwater management is another major factor, with older clay or PVC systems often affected by tree roots, sand intrusion, or movement from the area’s reactive soils.
We understand these local issues and tailor every repair or installation for Wynnum’s coastal environment — ensuring durability, compliance, and lasting performance.

Blocked Drains in Wynnum
Blocked drains are one of the most common issues for Wynnum homeowners — particularly in older houses and properties with large trees or sand-based soils. Our team uses CCTV drain cameras and high-pressure hydro jetting to accurately locate and clear blockages fast, without unnecessary excavation or disruption.
Common Wynnum drain issues we fix:
-
Tree root intrusion in cracked clay or PVC pipes
-
Sand, silt, and salt build-up from the coastal environment
-
Collapsed stormwater drains after heavy rain
-
Grease and kitchen waste in sink lines
-
Overflowing gully traps or blocked outdoor drains
If your drains keep blocking, we can assess the entire line and provide pipe relining or replacement options designed for the area’s conditions.
