Summer Hill has kept more of its original character than most of the Inner West. The village around Lackey Street and the station still feels like one, the streets off it are lined with federation homes and grand late Victorian houses, and heritage conservation is taken seriously. At the western edge, the old flour mill beside the light rail is now a precinct of apartments, and between the two sit the interwar and art deco flat blocks near the station.
Pink Plumbing is based in Earlwood, a short drive from Summer Hill. We look after homeowners, strata committees and property managers here as part of our Inner West service area.
Call 1300 111 007. Open 7am to 6pm, seven days.
Summer Hill's federation and Victorian homes sit on generous blocks with mature gardens, and the original earthenware sewer line runs under all of it. A century of ground movement opens the joints and tree roots grow straight in. We inspect with a CCTV camera, clear with a high-pressure jet blaster and, when the pipe is beyond maintenance, reline it without trenching through the garden beds. Blocked drains →
Homes of this age often still have galvanised steel water pipe. Rusty morning water and pressure that fades when a second tap opens are the usual signs. We replace it in copper, routing through roof spaces and sub-floors so heritage finishes stay untouched. Burst and leaking pipes →
Pressed metal ceilings, tessellated verandahs, original tiling that owners rightly want to keep. We plan pipe routes to avoid them and cut the smallest openings possible. When a heritage bathroom is renovated, we bring the plumbing to current standards without fighting the character of the house. Bathroom renovations →
Big federation roofs shed a lot of water and the original stormwater drains were sized for a different era. We clear, repair and upgrade them so heavy rain does not end up under the house. Jet blasting →
Homes from the railway era. Summer Hill's station opened in 1879 and the suburb filled with Victorian and Federation houses, semis and cottages on leafy streets. Homes of that age can still have earthenware or cast iron drains and galvanised water pipe, depending on repairs since. We camera the line first and show you the footage.
Old industry, new apartments. The former flour mill site near the station has been redeveloped as apartments, and the area now mixes heritage houses with newer strata buildings. We work in both, and for strata we trace the line, tell you which section is common property, and write it up for the manager.
Water on the edges. Hawthorne Canal runs through this part of the Inner West, so stormwater and drainage need care. We check that stormwater and sewer are kept apart and that gutters and downpipes drain where they should.
Trees, gardens and tight sites. Established gardens and street trees put roots into old clay drains, and many properties have only a side passage to the back. We find the cause, show you where, and plan the equipment to suit.
Burst pipe, sewer backing up into the shower, no hot water, a gas smell: ring 1300 111 007, after hours too. After-hours, weekend and emergency call-outs carry a call-out fee, always quoted upfront before we dispatch a plumber.
Upfront fixed price before any work starts. You only pay for the work we do, with no call-out fee in business hours and interest-free Payright options on larger jobs.
Summer Hill has a steady rental market in both flats and houses. We take work orders by email, arrange access with tenants, quote a fixed price for approval and send a photo report when the job is done.
Interwar and art deco flats near the station. These blocks are well built and much loved, but their plumbing is now very old. Cast iron stacks corrode, shared water services lose pressure, and hot water systems replaced decades ago are due again. We work with strata managers on staged upgrades, common property leaks and urgent repairs.
The flour mill precinct. The apartments in the redeveloped mill are modern, but not maintenance-free. Flexible hose failures, pressure-limiting valves and shared hot water plant are the common calls. We attend for owners, tenants and building managers.

Yes. NSW plumbing licence 311287C, fully insured, and every job is done or supervised by a licensed plumber. That matters in Inner West terraces, where half the work happens in a cramped subfloor or a narrow side passage and the shortcuts nobody can see are the ones that leak two winters later.
