About Margate Plumber
Margate Plumber is a locally owned and operated Queensland plumbing and gasfitting business. We hold QBCC No: 15024607, and most weeks our team covers Margate plus the surrounding bayside suburbs.

We keep things simple on purpose. What matters to you is the licence on the work, the price before it starts, and a plumber who turns up. That is what this page and every page on this site promises.
How We Work
Three habits shape every job we take on:
A fixed quote before work starts
You approve the written price before we touch anything.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Under QBCC No: 15024607, every job is done by a licensed plumber, and our labour carries a lifetime labour warranty.
Card and EFTPOS on site
Pay on the day, with nothing to chase afterwards.
What We Do
Our team covers the full spread of residential plumbing across the peninsula. The detail comes in four sets of work:
- Emergency Plumbing when water or gas cannot wait
- General Plumbing for the everyday tap, toilet, bathroom and kitchen jobs
- Drainage when sewers, stormwater or drains run slow or stop
- Hot Water for cold tanks and new systems
Why This Patch Keeps Us Busy
Units stacked on old pipes
Census figures put flats and apartments at 23.7 per cent of local dwellings, many in older walk-up blocks, so a burst hose on an upper floor quickly becomes the problem of the household below.
Salt off the bay
The eastern edge faces open water, so the onshore wind carries salt well inland of the beach, and brass tapware and bare copper pipe corrode faster here than they would inland.
Old sewer mains
Unitywater's sewer through the suburb runs largely on old clay and asbestos cement mains, so drain call-outs here tend to end at cracked joints and root intrusion.
Where We Go
The run does not stop at the boundary. Jobs take our plumbers into Woody Point and Redcliffe at the top of the peninsula, and into Clontarf and Kippa-Ring as well, with written quotes and licensed work wherever we turn up. If you are unsure whether your street is in range, ring and ask.
Common Questions About Our Business
Call (07) 3067 4274Who does the work at my home?
Our plumbers handle every job from a leaking shower to a brand-new hot water unit under QBCC No: 15024607, a licence covering plumbing, drainage and gasfitting, and the same team returns for follow-ups.
Are you licensed for gas work?
Yes, gasfitting is covered by the same QBCC licence as plumbing and drainage, so connecting a cooker, servicing a heater and checking an installation all fall under the one number at your place.
Which suburbs do you cover?
Margate is our regular run, and our plumbers also take jobs in Clontarf, Kippa-Ring, Redcliffe and Woody Point, so most addresses around the peninsula stay in range for a booked visit.
How does the fixed quote work?
A plumber inspects the job, talks you through the options and writes the price down before any tools come out, so the figure you sign off on is the figure you pay.
Can you come the same day?
Same-day where we can is the honest version, so ring (07) 3067 4274 early and our plumbers will aim to reach your place that day, though summer demand around the bay can stretch the run.
How do I book a plumber?
Ring (07) 3067 4274 and tell us what is happening, and we will set a time, put the quote in writing before work begins and take card or EFTPOS on site once the job is finished.
