We repair and replace galvanised lines without damaging original features and service strata systems without disrupting residents.

Here's What Our Customers Say

See what our local Brisbane customers are saying about our reliable plumbing services.

I had Tom from Weekend Plumbing Co. come out this morning, and I couldn’t be happier. From the moment I booked the appointment, the communication was smooth and friendly. Tom arrived on time, was professional, and took the time to explain what needed to be done before getting started. The quality of the work was excellent — efficient, thorough, and tidy. I would definitely recommend Weekend Plumbing Co. to anyone looking for reliable and top-notch plumbing service!

Melanie Ullner
Tom came out to assess our blocked kitchen drains, he went above and beyond to ensure the sink was draining before he left. Even though we couldn’t afford the whole works required today, the quote was reasonable but out of my budget this week - he went to work with his plunger and made sure the sink was draining to see us through the next couple of weeks until we book in for repairs and maintenance. Really polite and punctual, highly recommend this business, especially grateful for Tom’s help today!

Amanda Bate
Geordie and his team did a great job!! They were prompt, polite and were happy to explain to both me and my husband when our planned job had to change. Geordie gave us options and we were absolutely happy with the job. Highly recommend and will use the Weekend Plumbing Co for all plumbing jobs!!

Kerry Healy

Geordie and his team were absolutely amazing, right from start. Communication about the job was clear and explained in depth, including information about costing. They took care with installation, cleaned up beautifully and completed the job to a very high standard. I would highly recommend Weekend Plumbing Co. for any plumbing needs. Thanks guys
