Your Local Sunshine Coast Plumbing Experts
Synergy Trades Group provides a complete range of plumbing services for homeowners across the Sunshine Coast. From urgent repairs to routine maintenance, our plumbers deliver efficient and practical solutions tailored to your property.
We inspect the problem carefully, identify the real cause and guide you through the best repair or replacement options. Our team only uses quality parts and trusted brands to ensure reliability, safety and long-term performance.
Hot Water Systems
Sunshine Coast
A reliable hot water system is essential for every Sunshine Coast home, yet problems often appear without warning. You might notice fluctuating temperatures, rusty coloured water, reduced pressure, leaking valves or a complete loss of hot water. These symptoms usually point to ageing components, internal corrosion, faulty thermostats or sediment build-up inside the tank. Our licensed plumbers assess the entire system, identify the cause and determine whether a repair will restore performance or if replacing the unit offers better long-term value.
We work with all major hot water brands including Rheem, Rinnai, Dux, Vulcan, Bosch, Thermann, Aquamax and Solahart. Our plumbers service and install every type of system found in Sunshine Coast homes, including electric storage tanks, instantaneous gas units, gas storage systems, heat pumps and solar hot water systems.
Many Sunshine Coast properties experience issues due to ageing systems or the effects of coastal conditions, where salt in the air can accelerate corrosion. Regular servicing helps extend the life of your hot water unit, improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs. Our team can recommend an ideal maintenance schedule and explain early warning signs so you can avoid unexpected breakdowns.
If repairs are the best option, we replace worn components, test pressure valves, check all connections, flush the system and ensure everything operates safely. If a replacement provides better value, we help you select a system that suits your household’s water usage, energy goals, roof space and budget. Whether you choose a modern solar unit, an economical electric system or a high-performance gas option, we manage the entire installation and commissioning in line with Australian Standards.
Blocked Drains
Sunshine Coast
Blocked drains will disrupt your home’s plumbing and often become worse the longer they are left. On the Sunshine Coast, common causes include tree root intrusion, cooking grease solidifying in pipes, wet wipes and sanitary products, damaged stormwater lines or collapsed sections of older plumbing. You may notice water draining slowly, toilets bubbling, unpleasant odours or overflowing drains after rain. These symptoms indicate a blockage or obstruction that needs the attention of an expert plumber.
Our team uses equipment such as CCTV drain cameras and high-pressure water jetters to diagnose and clear the blockage safely. The camera inspection allows us to see exactly what is causing the obstruction, whether it is roots, foreign objects or structural pipe damage. Once the cause is confirmed, we clear the line and restore full flow. High-pressure jetting is extremely effective at removing stubborn build-up without damaging the pipe walls.
Some blockages return because the underlying pipework is cracked or misaligned. If this is the case, we can provide repair or replacement options to prevent further issues. This may involve pipe relining, replacing damaged sections or upgrading stormwater lines that cannot handle heavy Sunshine Coast rainfall. Our aim is to provide a solution that fixes the immediate issue and protects your home from future blockages.
Water Leaks and Leak Detection Sunshine Coast
Water leaks can be obvious or completely hidden, and the hidden ones often cause the most damage. You might hear water running inside walls, notice soft spots in flooring, find mould growth, or receive a high water bill without explanation. These signs suggest a concealed leak in a wall cavity, under a concrete slab, inside a ceiling or in an outdoor pipeline. Locating the exact source without proper equipment is difficult and often leads to unnecessary damage if handled incorrectly.
Our plumbers use specialised leak detection tools to find the leak without guesswork. This may include acoustic listening equipment, thermal imaging, tracer gas testing or pressure testing. Once the location is identified, we expose only the area required and carry out a targeted repair. This approach reduces property damage, saves time and keeps repair costs manageable.
Leaks can be caused by worn pipe seals, corrosion, failing mixers, loose fittings, movement in the building structure or high water pressure. Sunshine Coast homes, particularly older properties, are also prone to leaks from ageing copper lines or older galvanised pipes. We repair the issue, check surrounding pipework and provide advice on how to avoid future leaks. Addressing a leak early helps protect your home from structural damage, electrical hazards and unhealthy mould growth.
Plumbing Services Sunshine Coast
Synergy Trades Group provides a full range of plumbing services designed to keep your home running smoothly. Whether you are updating a bathroom, repairing a noisy toilet or dealing with inconsistent water pressure, our plumbers offer clear explanations and practical solutions. We work on taps and mixers, showers, toilets, kitchen plumbing, laundry connections, dishwasher installations, roof and gutter leaks, stormwater systems and garden taps.
In many Sunshine Coast homes, water pressure problems are a recurring issue. This can be caused by faulty pressure limiting valves, debris in the lines or problems with your mains connection. We investigate the source and restore consistent flow throughout the home. If you are planning a renovation, our plumbers can assist with fixture upgrades, water-saving fittings, appliance installations and relocation of pipework. Every job is completed with precision to ensure the plumbing integrates smoothly with the rest of the build.
We also handle urgent repairs when something suddenly goes wrong. Burst pipes, overflowing toilets and major leaks need immediate attention to prevent damage. Our local team can respond quickly and provide a long-lasting fix rather than a temporary patch. No matter the size of the job, we focus on delivering reliable results and giving homeowners the confidence that their plumbing is safe and up to standard.

FAQ
No hot water can be due to either a plumbing or electrical issue. Call us now and we’ll troubleshoot with you over the phone then send a plumber or electrician to your property to get the issue resolved.
Any unusual or gurgling type noises should be looked at by an experienced and qualified plumber as soon as possible. A gurgling noise often indicates that there is a partial blockage in the drain, so it’s best to get this sorted now before it gets worse or becomes an emergency. Our plumbers are available to attend your home or business in Sunshine Coast, simply book via this online form or call now.
Not all toilet suites are the same and it’s important to check the set out measurements before choosing your new toilet. While we are happy to install a toilet suite that you have purchased yourself, we recommend that you give us a call to discuss your requirements first.

This is commonly known as “water hammer”, which is the sound of fast-moving water suddenly stopping when a tap turns off. The noise occurs when water collides with the closed valve – a hydraulic shock causes the loud banging noises. Left unattended, water hammer can lead to an array of major plumbing problems in the future including burst pipes, loose fittings, or damage to fixtures.
If you have this issue in your home or business in Sunshine Coast, book a visit from one of our plumbers via this online form or call now.
Mixer taps are the most common style of taps used in houses and businesses. Rather than having individual hot and cold taps, a mixer tap is just one lever tap that “mixes” the hot and cold water supplies providing water at the desired temperature depending on the position of the lever.
Blockages prevent water and waste products from flowing freely down the pipe. Drains can become blocked for a number of reasons, including:
- Buildup of solidified fat / grease
- Buildup of soap scum / hair
- Low quality toilet paper
- Flushing baby wipes or wet wipes
- Broken, collapsed or damaged pipe
- Tree root entry
- Foreign objects caught in the drain (toilet cleaner cages, rocks, toys or jewellery)
A DIY drain clearing remedy might work in the short term, however only a qualified plumber has the tools, equipment and experience to properly clear your blocked drain. Depending on the cause and severity of the blockage, our plumbers can use a number of tools/pieces of equipment, including:
- Drain Camera Inspection
- Hydro Jetter Drain Cleaning
- Rigid FlexShaft Drain Clearing
Using a hydro jetter is the most common method to professionally clear a blocked drain. A high-pressure hose pumps water at 5000 PSI to clear obstructions from the drain, while shooting a stream of water backwards to propel the jetter head forwards. It is the best tool to cut and clear blockages and tree roots. It works quickly and efficiently which minimises the cost to the property owner.
There are a few ways that you can try to clear a blocked drain yourself, however they may not provide a long-term solution.
Short-term relief options include using boiling water and detergent or bicarb soda and white vinegar, or you can try plunging the drain. Unfortunately, if the blockage is further down the drain, it is very unlikely that a home remedy will clear the drain.
For a thorough and professional repair and advice on long-term solutions, book a visit in Sunshine Coast from one of our plumbers via this online form or call now.
“Backflow” is the flow of water back into the drinking water supply. A backflow prevention device stops unwanted water entering our water supply, protecting is from drinking or using contaminated water. Backflow Prevention Devices must be registered with Council upon installation and tested annually by a licenced and endorsed plumber.
