SERVICE OVERVIEW

Service Overview

Plumbing and wet works sit behind many kitchen and bathroom decisions. Sink positions, sanitary fixtures, drainage, water supply, floor levels, tiles and access can affect one another, so the work should be reviewed before finishes are fixed. PUB distinguishes regulated water service and sanitary plumbing works from certain simple plumbing works; regulated works must be carried out by Licensed Plumbers. We therefore define the renovation interfaces clearly and coordinate licensed plumbing involvement where required.

SCOPE

What This Service Can Cover

PLANNING

What We Check Before Work Begins

  • Existing fixture and service locations
  • Visible leaks, blockages or defects requiring diagnosis
  • Proposed fixture positions
  • Floor levels and drainage interfaces
  • Cabinet/vanity and tile dimensions
  • Licensed Plumber requirements for regulated work
  • Access and protection
  • Coordination with electrical, carpentry and finishing work

Final checks depend on the property, proposed work and information available during assessment. Relevant requirements are confirmed before work starts.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

When is a PUB Licensed Plumber required?

PUB states that regulated water service and sanitary plumbing works must be carried out by Licensed Plumbers, while certain listed simple plumbing works can be done without an LP.

Can a sink or sanitary fixture be relocated?

It may be possible, but feasibility depends on the existing system, drainage, levels, access and applicable requirements. It should be assessed before the layout is finalised.

Can plumbing be coordinated with carpentry?

Yes. Sink, vanity and appliance interfaces should be planned before cabinetry is fabricated.

Can you fix a leak as part of renovation?

The source should first be identified. Repair scope depends on the cause and whether regulated plumbing work or other wet-area rectification is required.

What information helps with quotation?

Photos, fixture locations, the intended changes, property type and any known leak/drainage issues are useful.

Why avoid closing walls or cabinets before plumbing is confirmed?

Service positions and access can affect the finished work. Early coordination reduces the risk of reopening completed finishes.
