Why strata jobs need a different process
A rental property is not a normal job for a plumber in Charlestown: nobody on site is the person paying, so the paperwork matters as much as the repair.
- The tenant is contacted directly, with confirmation and a pre-arrival message so nobody misses the window
- Photos of the fault go to the agent or owners corporation, not just a verbal report
- The invoice spells out what was done and why, so levies and claims are easy to process
- The owner or agent approves a written price first, so no argument follows the job
That is the whole point: an agent can forward the invoice without a phone call to chase the story.
How does a tenant booking actually run?
- 1
The job comes in
The agent or body corporate rings (02) 4063 3469 with the fault and the property details, or sends the form.
- 2
We contact the tenant
A time is arranged directly with whoever lives there, and they get a confirmation message before we arrive.
- 3
The work is documented
The fault, the fix and the finished job all get photographed, and the invoice itemises everything.
- 4
Everyone gets the paperwork
The agent receives the photos and the invoice together, so the file closes cleanly.
What fails in the unit stock here
The buildings tell you where the faults sit. Census figures put 8.9 per cent of dwellings here in units or apartments, and the newer blocks rising around Charlestown Square concentrate a lot of fittings in one building. A budget hose or mixer installed during a rapid fit-out starts weeping behind a shared wall a few years in, and one letting go on an upper floor can affect the units below it. Strata managers see the pattern repeat across their portfolios.
- Older rentals on the first streets cut from the colliery land drain through clay laid when the suburb was sewered in 1959, so a rental with a sewer running slow needs a camera check before anyone digs
- Houses near Ida Street and Pearson Street that have never been renovated can still run galvanised supply pipe, which stains fixtures and chokes the flow at the tenant's taps
The blocked drains hub covers the clearing work behind those calls, and the CCTV drain inspection page explains what the footage shows before a repair is priced. For hot water failures in a rental, the hot water hub covers repairs and swaps, and a temporary tank keeps the showers running for tenants until the new unit is fitted.
What drives the price on a strata job?
The same things that drive any plumbing price, plus access.
"Easy to organise, held to agreed timelines, transparent pricing with options provided." Jess
- Where the fault sits, and how hard it is to reach in a unit building or a shared plant space
- What strata rules require around parking, entry and working hours
- Whether the fix is a single fitting or a longer renewal
- Whether the job falls after hours, since that work carries its own rate
We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead. For an agent, that means the figure you pass to the owners corporation is the figure the invoice carries. One reviewer put it this way:
When We're Not the Right Call
Some strata matters are not plumbing. A dispute over who pays for a repair sits with the owners corporation and its by-laws, not with us.
A fault inside a switchboard or a hot water unit's wiring needs an electrician, so the plumbing is all we price. Cracked slabs or retaining walls on common property are a builder's job, so the agent brings one in for the structure.
Strata questions we hear
Do you work in the unit blocks around Charlestown Square?
Yes. Each stack in those buildings carries a lot of pipework, and we work through building access rules, shared plant spaces and resident parking as part of the booking.
How do you invoice real estate and strata jobs?
You get photos of the fault, a written figure first, then a detailed invoice afterwards that separates what was done from what it cost. That gives agents everything they need to pass on to the owners corporation.
Can you attend a tenant emergency after hours?
Yes, we are available 24/7. A burst hose or a sewer backing into a unit cannot wait until morning, and the tenant or agent can ring the same number at night or on a weekend.
Do you cover strata properties outside Charlestown?
We do. The regular run takes in Kahibah, Whitebridge, Gateshead, Mount Hutton and Adamstown Heights, so a portfolio spread across those suburbs stays with one team.
