Pre-Purchase Plumbing Inspections The Gap

Roof & Plumbing Inspections Before Purchase The Gap

TRG Plumbing’s fully licensed team provides thorough pre-purchase roof and plumbing inspections in The Gap, a leafy, hilly suburb located about 10 km north-west of Brisbane’s CBD. Known for its mix of post-war homes, modern family residences, and architect-designed builds, properties in The Gap often present unique challenges, from ageing roofing materials to underground drainage issues caused by the suburb’s sloped terrain and dense tree cover.

Our The Gap Pre-Purchase Roof and Plumbing Inspection Services Include:

Comprehensive plumbing system checks:
Inspecting pipes, taps, fixtures, and fittings for leaks or deterioration.
Roof and gutter inspections:
Identifying corrosion, cracked tiles, damaged flashing, or loose fixings.
CCTV drain camera inspections:
Detecting underground blockages, cracks, or collapsed pipes.
Hot water system evaluation:
Ensuring safe, efficient, and compliant operation.
Water pressure testing:
Protecting fixtures from excessive strain.
Detailed written reports:
Providing clear, actionable findings for buyers and agents.

Purchasing a home here without a detailed inspection can lead to expensive surprises, such as hidden roof leaks, deteriorated plumbing systems, or blocked drains. Our inspections are designed to uncover both visible and concealed issues so you can make informed decisions and negotiate repairs before settlement.

We contacted TRG the night prior and received immediate contact. Their team was on-site within 36 hours and completed a very tricky job of installing a new Water heater in a tight loft space to replace one that was leaking and causing damage. They perform their duties with great professionalism and quality work, on time and to the exact quote they stated. I would use them again and encourage anyone else to use them also. Ian

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an urgent request from one of our retail clients and needed a plumber onsite as soon as possible. Tom was able to arrange for a team member to attend within the hour, which was fantastic service.

This was our first time using TRG Plumbing, and we were extremely impressed with their prompt response and professionalism. We would highly recommend TRG Plumbing and will definitely be adding them to our subcontractor list for future projects.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had no idea how big the problem was with our drainage. TRG Plumbing were amazing - they offered alternate solutions looking for the least invasive and most cost efficient way to fix the issues.
Josh from TRG was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble - he took the time to explain everything and really cared about our job and the outcome.
Tom and his team go over and above.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were really impressed with the service and experience we had with TRG. They installed a new hot water heater for us and fixed the drainage of our downpipes to connect to the stormwater at the street. They took care to really understand exactly what we were after with the work and made sure it was as neat and tidy as possible. They worked quickly and efficiently and their price was way more competitive than some of the other quotes we got. Tyrone, who mainly worked on the project, was really easy to deal with and we were very happy with the outcome. Would recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t rate these guys highly enough. Had a plumbing issue for 3years, had 3 different plumbers come out and given wildly different fixes with a huge variant in cost, ranging from 2k to 10k+ & ripping off walls to saying it can’t be done. Tom was immediately confident they could fix it and the team (shoutout Josh & Anthony!) who thought outside the box, found the water cut off for the unit which the other 3 failed to do & fixed the problem promptly without knocking down any walls while keeping price in a very reasonable range. Also organised a plasterer & tiler to work concurrently with them & get the job done super fast. Brilliant all round, would recommend to anyone getting the run around. Never felt talked down to or patronised in any way & they showed up on time! Great communication and fully informed before any tasks started, with price point of differences given for each step. Just top blokes. I won’t use anyone else now. Huge thank you TRG!!
