A lot of Dromana homes sit empty for weeks at a time. That's when small problems quietly get bigger. A running cistern can trickle away all month. A slow leak under the sink can soak the cupboard before anyone notices. Then summer hits, the house fills up and everything gets used at once.

Locals have it easier, but the bay still takes its toll. Sea air is tough on outdoor taps and fittings. And plenty of older beach houses are still running on tired pipes.




Your Holiday Home Plumbing Checklist



Five minutes when you leave and five minutes when you arrive can save you a nasty surprise. Here's what we suggest for your Dromana holiday home.

Before You Lock Up

Water off Shut off the mains tap at your water meter if nobody's checking on the house

Hot water off Switch the hot water system off, or to holiday mode if it has one

Quick drip check Look under the sinks and behind the toilets. Small leaks grow when nobody's around .

Outside taps Make sure every tap is fully off, including the garden and outdoor shower.

When You Arrive

Water on slowly Turn the water back on gently, then run each tap until it flows smoothly.

Top up the drains Pour water down every shower and floor waste. This refills the traps and stops sewer smells.

  • Hot water back on Switch it on and give it a few hours to heat up.



Smell gas? Shut off the gas at the meter and open up the house. Then ring the emergency number printed on your gas bill.

Rather not deal with it? Book us for a holiday home plumbing check before summer, or before you shut up for winter. We'll go over the lot and tell you what needs attention.

Plumbing Sorted While You're Away

Back in Melbourne when something goes wrong? That's fine. We can arrange access with you, a neighbour or your property manager. You'll know the price before anything starts. Then we fix it, tidy up and let you know it's done.

Run a holiday rental? A leak between guests can't wait. Tell us when the next check-in is and we'll plan around it.

Blocked Drains in Dromana

Drains that sit quiet all winter get a real workout over summer. Extra guests mean more showers, more washing and more dishes. Add wet wipes, sand from the beach and fat from the barbecue, and blockages follow.

We'll clear the drain, find out what caused it and get it ready for the next full house. If an old pipe is the real problem, we'll tell you straight and give you your options.

Gas Fitting in Dromana and Safety Beach

Whether your place runs on mains gas or LPG bottles, our licensed gas fitters can help. As your gas plumber in Dromana, we install and service gas heaters, cooktops and hot water systems.

Love the deck? We can fit a gas point for an outdoor heater or barbecue. You'll be out there well into autumn. Coming down for winter weekends? Book a gas heater service before the cold sets in. See our full range of gas fitting services.

Plumbing for Safety Beach Homes

Just up the road, Safety Beach has plenty of newer homes, including around Martha Cove. The plumbing is younger, but things still go wrong. Typical jobs include hot water swaps, tapware upgrades, leaking showers and new gas appliances.

Need a plumber in Safety Beach? We're there too, with the same clear pricing and tidy work.

I would like to recommend Allen from Almac Plumbing for his incredible professionalism and excellent quality of his work. I contracted Allen to renovate two complete kitchens and three bathrooms on my investment properties; and he has delivered not only excellent quality work, but his leadership skills in leading with other tradesmen and difficult neighbours was outstanding.

We have been using Almac Plumbing for the renovations of our investment property in Mulgrave. Al is fantastic to work with – not only does he always turn up on time, but he listens to what we want and makes recommendations if he feels that we could go in a better direction. So far he has removed two bathrooms, installed a new bath, completed all of the waterproofing and has prepped the kitchen and laundry. I can’t wait to see the finished product – but I already know how great it is going to be. Thanks so much Al!

Almac Plumbing provided a highly effective service on a unique and demanding project. Our brief was ambitious and complicated, requiring intelligent plumbing solutions for a small kitchen rebuild. Almac Plumbing completed this on time and budget. Foremost, we were most impressed by Allen’s initiative, optimism and enthusiasm to achieve exceptional results in full recognition of the challenging nature of the job.
