Servicing a hot water system takes more than just a quick look. The more complex the system, the more comprehensive the servicing, but even single heating units require careful attention to detail. Our licenced hot water plumbers and gas fitters will ensure every pipe, fitting, screw, and tank is perfectly secure and capable of meeting your hot water demands.
Ron’s old external gas heater failed and left his household without hot water. Our technicians assessed the site and recommended a Rinnai continuous-flow replacement. We removed the old unit, installed a new Rinnai 26, completed the gas and safety checks and commissioned the system the same day. Ron and his family had hot water restored before the evening.
Kate called when her Bosch unit repeatedly tripped and would not reheat. After on-site diagnostics, we confirmed the heater was beyond economical repair. We organised a like-for-like Rinnai replacement, handled the install and flue work and completed all safety testing. The new system restored hot water reliably and improved energy performance. Kate appreciated the clear quote and tidy install.
Steve’s family woke to a cold morning when their Thermann storage unit stopped heating. Our team attended, diagnosed a failed element and corroded tank and recommended an Aquamax 390 replacement to suit the household demand. We fitted the new unit, connected the controls and ran full pressure and safety tests. The house had hot water again the same day, with efficient flow restored.

‘Inner City Plumbing’ is a spot-on name for a plumber operating within the inner city. That’s why we picked it thirty years ago. Of course, our operation has expanded quite a bit since then.
Today, we’re still based in the inner-city suburb of Abbotsford, but our always-equipped service teams patrol nearly 170 suburbs stretching from the Melbourne CBD to the outer suburbs.
Wide as our service area is, you need an emergency plumber you can trust that we still guarantee our one-hour emergency response time.



Like every business, we aim to set ourselves apart by delivering unique services, hiring the best people and training them on the best techniques and technologies. But at the core of our business is a set of two simple principles shared by every company that cares about its craft:
Following those principles has brought us lasting success. We won’t be changing them anytime soon.




You should have your hot water system serviced at least once a year.
A yearly service should be fine for residential settings with low to medium usage. But in high-use commercial or industrial settings, you may need to have your hot water units serviced every six months. After our initial on-site consultation, we can advise you on the most appropriate schedule for your needs.
Yes, we are. Our plumbers are also licensed gas fitters, and we can have your gas hot water system installed and maintained safely and correctly.
