Red Hill is a different world from the coast. Bigger blocks, cooler winters and properties spread across vineyards, orchards and bush. Some homes are on mains water. Plenty rely on rainwater tanks, and many aren't connected to mains sewer. Lots of properties run on LPG bottles rather than mains gas.

So there's more that can go wrong, and more places to look when it does. A pump in the shed. A long line out to the stables. A tank up the back paddock. We know to look beyond the house.

Rainwater Tank Plumbing in Red Hill

If your water comes from a tank, the whole house depends on it. We install, connect and repair tank systems, including:

Tank-to-house connections : New tanks plumbed in properly, with overflows running where they should.

Pressure pumps: Installed, replaced and repaired, so every tap gets decent pressure.

Mains and tank together: Got both? We keep them properly separated with the right backflow protection.

First-flush diverters and filters: They keep leaves, grit and the first dirty rain out of your tank and taps.

Leaking tanks and fittings: Outlets, valves and pipework fixed before you lose a tankful.

Pump Running When No Tap's On?


That's one of the most common signs of a leak on a tank system. Somewhere, water is escaping and the pump is working to keep up. Switch the pump off at the power and give us a call. We'll trace the leak, whether it's under the house or out in the paddock.

LPG Gas Fitting in Red Hill

Off the mains? Our licensed gas fitters are just as at home with LPG bottles as with natural gas. As your LPG gas fitter in Red Hill, we install and service cooktops, heaters and LPG hot water. We fit and replace bottle regulators and changeover valves. And we can convert suitable appliances between natural gas and LPG using the maker's conversion kit.

Every job is leak tested before we leave. Smell gas near the bottles? Close the valve on each cylinder, keep flames well away and call us or your LPG supplier. See our full gas fitting services.

Hot Water and Heating for Hinterland Winters

Winters on the ridge are cold and wet, so reliable hot water matters. We repair and replace gas, LPG and electric hot water systems, sized to suit your household.

Hydronic Heating

Almac also installs and services hydronic heating. A boiler heats water that flows through radiators or panels in each room. It's gentle, even warmth that suits bigger homes. Prefer a real fire? Take a look at wood heater installation in Red Hill.

Sheds, studios and guest cottages

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!
