Plumber Grange
Old Port Group, Your Trusted Local Plumbers Servicing Grange for over 35 years.
We're a fully licensed and insured South Australian plumbing business based nearby in Royal Park — not a call centre routing your job out to a subcontractor. We know Grange well, from down near Grange Jetty to along Military Road. Grange's beachfront and near-beachfront homes know Old Port Plumbing as the plumber Grange residents call when something needs fixing properly the first time. Our plumbing licence (PGE 359332) and builders licence (BLD 53735) are held with SA Consumer and Business Services and can be verified at any time. Years spent working across Adelaide's western suburbs have taught us the specific plumbing quirks of this part of town, and that local knowledge is exactly why so many Grange households and businesses call us at Old Port Plumbing.

Old Port Plumbing provides full-service residential plumbing to Grange households, alongside a smaller amount of commercial and emergency work. Our plumbing services Grange cover everything from a dripping tap to a full hot water replacement, and every job is quoted upfront before we start. As a Grange plumber based just up the road in Royal Park, we're familiar with the plumbing conditions specific to this part of Adelaide's western suburbs, which means less guesswork and a more accurate first quote. The sections below cover our core services in more detail.
Emergency Plumbing in Grange
Fast, reliable plumbing for leaks, burst pipes, blocked drains, and other emergencies.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, no hot water, overflowing drains and blocked toilets don't always wait for business hours. During our operating hours (Monday to Friday, 7 am – 5 pm), an emergency call takes priority over routine bookings, and we aim to be on site in Grange within approximately one hour. We're a growing local team rather than a 24-hour call centre, so outside these hours please call 08 8102 1555 and we'll get back to you as soon as we're able — for a gas leak or anything immediately dangerous, please also contact your gas retailer's emergency line. Any after-hours rate is quoted plainly before work begins.
Hot Water System Repairs & Replacement
Specialist hot water repairs, immediate service, 24/7 support, reliable solutions.
We repair and replace all four common hot water types — gas storage, gas continuous flow, electric, and heat pump — and work with the major brands, including Rinnai, Rheem, Bosch, Dux, Chromagen, Thermann, Vulcan, and AquaMax. Eligible households replacing a natural gas hot water system may also qualify for the $150 Australian Gas Networks rebate — refer to the Australian Gas Networks website.
Because Grange sits close to the coast, salt-laden air is a genuine factor in how long a hot water unit lasts. We recommend coastal-appropriate installation practices for these properties — elevated mounting away from direct salt spray, more frequent sacrificial anode inspection, and careful flue positioning — all of which meaningfully extend the working life of the system.
Gas Fitting & Gas Appliance Installation
Installation of gas appliances, leak detection, repairs, and maintenance.
We provide licensed gas plumber Grange services for cooktops, ovens, gas heaters, gas hot water systems, and natural gas BBQ points, all under plumbing licence PGE 359332. All gas work is certified and compliant with AS/NZS 5601.
Blocked Drains & CCTV Drain Inspections
Quick, reliable blocked drain cleaners that can unblock your sink, sewer, shower, or toilet drains.
We offer three distinct services for blocked and problem drains: hydro-jet drain clearing, CCTV camera inspection, and no-dig pipe relining.
Tree-root intrusion into ageing pipework is a common cause of blockages in Grange's established gardens, and a CCTV inspection shows us exactly where roots have entered so we can recommend clearing, relining, or a spot repair rather than guessing.
As a general rule, the property owner is responsible for drainage from the property boundary inward —SA Water has more detail on where that responsibility sits.
Leak Detection & Burst Pipe Repairs
Quick, reliable blocked drain cleaners that can unblock your sink, sewer, shower, or toilet drains.
We use non-invasive acoustic and pressure-test equipment to find leaks without unnecessary digging or wall damage. A simple at-home check worth trying first: record your water meter reading, avoid using any water for two hours, then check it again — a change indicates a leak somewhere in the system, per SA Water's guidance. In older Grange housing stock, common leak locations include hot water service connections, under-slab copper joints, and irrigation feed lines.
Bathroom, Kitchen & Laundry Plumbing
Quick, reliable blocked drain cleaners that can unblock your sink, sewer, shower, or toilet drains.
From tap repair and replacement, toilet installation, dishwasher installation and cistern repair, through to full renovation rough-in and fit-off for Grange renovation projects, we handle the plumbing side of bathroom, kitchen and laundry work start to finish. A small but genuine saving worth knowing: SA Water estimates a dual-flush toilet saves roughly $36.52 per person per year, and over 11kL of water, compared with an older single-flush model.
Water Filters
Under bench and entire home water filtration options available.
At Old Port Plumbing we can supply and install premium filtration systems to households or businesses. Installing a good filtration system is one of the soundest investments that you could make to your household or business. Whether it be a whole house solution or an under-sink solution, our professional plumbers have the expertise to install the best.
Taps: Repair, Replacement
Tap repairs and replacement. Fast and reliable repairs to stop your leaking taps, saving water and preventing further damage.
Are you sick of that constant dripping noise coming from your taps? Not only is it annoying but it can also lead to a significant water wastage and increase your water bills. If you leave the issue unattended too it could lead to big problems and costly repairs if not addressed in time. Did you know that a single tap dripping can waste approximately 20,000 litres of water every year? That's not only water going down the drain, that's your money as well. Stop ignoring those drips and contact us at Old Port Plumbing for quick reliable tap repairs in Grange.
Toilets
Professional installation, detailed repairs, toilet not flushing, toilet not refilling.
If you’re dealing with a leaking, broken, or blocked toilet, don’t let the problem get worse. Call Old Port Plumbing your Local Plumber and we will send our qualified, reliable plumber you can trust. Our response time is quick; we will arrive on time and offer same-day service across Grange.
Common Plumbing Issues in Grange
Grange sits right on the coast, and that proximity to salt air is the single biggest factor in the suburb's plumbing issues. External taps, hose fittings, and hot water unit casings corrode noticeably faster here than in inland Adelaide suburbs, and gas flues on beachfront properties need careful positioning to avoid accelerated wear from salt-laden wind. Stormwater management is another recurring issue on the sandier, beach-side blocks around the Esplanade, where grates and gutters can fill with wind-blown sand after a blow.
A number of older beach shacks along the foreshore have been converted into permanent residences over the years, and these often carry legacy plumbing — undersized drainage, ageing hot water connections, or fittings that were never intended for full-time use — that need upgrading to handle everyday household demand rather than occasional weekend use.

Salt-laden air genuinely shortens the life of standard external fittings and hot water units near the Grange foreshore. We recommend marine-grade fittings where practical, more frequent sacrificial anode checks, and careful positioning of the unit and flue away from direct salt spray.
Sandy, beach-side blocks around Grange are prone to wind-blown sand fouling stormwater grates and gutters, especially after strong onshore winds. Regular clearing and, in some cases, upgraded grate covers can reduce how often this becomes a problem.
We prioritise genuine emergencies — burst pipes, gas leaks, sewer overflow, or no water. Call 08 8102 1555 any time; after-hours calls are returned as soon as we're able.
We install and service all major hot water brands — Rinnai, Rheem, Bosch, Dux, Chromagen, Thermann, Vulcan and AquaMax — plus tapware brands including Caroma, Methven, Dorf and Grohe. We service all major brands, not just the stock we supply.
