Your Trusted Plumber in Caloundra & Surrounds
When you need a reliable plumber in Caloundra, PAGE Tradie brings 25+ years of hands-on experience to one of the Sunshine Coast's most established communities. I specialise in blocked drain clearing, hot water system repairs and replacements, and gas fitting for Caloundra's mix of older homes, coastal properties, and modern residences.
Caloundra's coastal environment creates unique plumbing challenges — salt air accelerates corrosion in older pipes and fittings, hilltop properties like Caloundra Hill can experience higher water pressure, and many established homes still have ageing cast iron or galvanised steel pipework. I know what to look for and how to fix it properly the first time.
Whether you're dealing with a blocked drain at Kings Beach, a failed hot water system at Golden Beach, or need gas fitting work in Pelican Waters, I deliver fast, honest service with upfront pricing and a 5.0-star Google rating.

Why Choose a Local Plumber for Your Caloundra Home?
The advantages of working with someone who knows Caloundra inside out
Understanding Caloundra's Unique Plumbing Challenges
Caloundra is one of the Sunshine Coast's oldest established areas, and that comes with specific plumbing challenges you won't find in newer suburbs. Many homes still have original galvanised steel or cast iron pipes that are reaching the end of their life. Salt air from the beachside environment accelerates corrosion in exposed fittings and connections. Properties on elevated areas like Caloundra Hill can experience higher-than-normal water pressure that stresses pipework over time. I know what to look for in Caloundra homes and can diagnose issues faster because I've seen them all before.
Fast Response Across All of Caloundra
Being Sunshine Coast based means I can respond quickly to Caloundra service calls, typically within 1-2 hours for urgent issues. A blocked drain or failed hot water system needs prompt attention — you won't wait for a tradie travelling from Brisbane or the other end of the Coast. I service all of Caloundra including Kings Beach, Golden Beach, Pelican Waters, Caloundra West, Battery Hill and surrounds. This local availability also makes me the right choice for ongoing maintenance as your home ages.
Established Relationships with Local Suppliers
I have strong relationships with Sunshine Coast plumbing suppliers who stock the right parts for Caloundra's mix of older and newer homes. This means faster turnaround when you need repairs — I can source parts quickly without waiting on interstate deliveries. I'm also familiar with Sunshine Coast Regional Council requirements, ensuring all permits and compliance documentation are handled correctly. Work passes inspection the first time because I know the local standards inside out.
Committed to the Caloundra Community
My business runs on reputation and word of mouth in Caloundra. Happy customers refer their neighbours, and those relationships are everything to a local sole operator. You're not just another job number — you're a neighbour I might see at the Caloundra Farmers Market or along the Esplanade. That accountability means I always turn up on time, do the job right, and stand behind my work. It's the kind of service you used to be able to count on from your local tradie, and still can with PAGE Tradie.
Honest Advice, No Upselling
A lot of Caloundra homeowners have been burned by tradies who talk them into unnecessary work or disappear after getting paid. I operate differently — I give you a straight assessment of what needs doing, what can wait, and what it'll cost before I start. If a repair will fix the problem, I'll tell you. If replacement is the better long-term option, I'll explain why. You get honest advice from someone who actually knows the local conditions, not a sales pitch from a call centre tradie who's never worked in the area.

Do you specialise in blocked drains in Caloundra?
Yes — blocked drains are one of my most common jobs across Caloundra, Kings Beach, Golden Beach and Pelican Waters. I carry a RIDGID K-60 mechanical drain cleaner and can arrange CCTV camera inspections to find exactly what's causing the blockage before clearing it. Caloundra's older homes are particularly prone to root intrusion in ageing clay or cast iron sewer lines, and coastal properties can have stormwater systems that block with sand and debris. I've cleared hundreds of drains across Caloundra and know the common problem areas. Same-day service is available for urgent blockages — call me directly on 0447 655 396.
My hot water system has stopped working — can you fix it today?
In most cases, yes. Hot water failures are a priority job and I aim to respond same-day across Caloundra. When you call, I'll ask a few quick questions to diagnose the likely problem — whether it's a failed element, thermostat, relief valve, or a system that needs full replacement. If it's repairable I'll fix it on the spot. If replacement is needed, I carry common hot water systems and can often do a same-day swap. I work on all brands and types — electric, gas, solar and heat pump. Don't spend a night without hot water — call me on 0447 655 396 and I'll tell you straight what's going on.
Do Caloundra's older homes have specific plumbing problems I should know about?
Absolutely — and this is where local knowledge really matters. Many Caloundra homes built before the 1990s still have galvanised steel water pipes that corrode from the inside out, reducing water flow and eventually failing. Older clay sewer lines are prone to root intrusion and cracking. Properties close to the beach — particularly in Kings Beach and Golden Beach — suffer accelerated corrosion from salt air on exposed copper fittings and hot water systems. Homes on elevated areas like Caloundra Hill can experience high incoming water pressure that stresses fixtures and causes early tap failures. If your home is 20+ years old, a plumbing health check is worth doing before small issues become expensive ones. Call me on 0447 655 396 for an honest assessment.
Are you licensed and insured to work in Caloundra?
Yes — I hold current QBCC licences for both plumbing and gas fitting (Licence #15559043), covering all work throughout Queensland including Caloundra and the Sunshine Coast. I carry comprehensive public liability insurance protecting homeowners and myself on every job. All work complies with Australian Standards, the Plumbing and Drainage Act, and Sunshine Coast Regional Council requirements. I provide compliance certificates for gas work, backflow testing and other regulated services. You can verify my licence on the QBCC website anytime. Always use a licensed plumber — unlicensed work puts your insurance and home warranty at risk.
Can you install or connect gas appliances in Caloundra?
Yes — I'm a fully licensed gas fitter and handle all gas appliance work across Caloundra. This includes gas cooktop and oven installation, gas hot water system connections, BBQ and outdoor gas connections, gas heating installation, and gas line extensions or modifications. I also do gas leak detection and repairs — if you smell gas, open windows, get outside, turn off the gas meter, and call me or emergency services immediately. All gas work is certified and compliant with AS/NZS 5601. Gas installations must be done by a licensed gas fitter — it's illegal and dangerous to use an unlicensed person.
How much do plumbing services cost in Caloundra?
I always provide upfront quotes before starting work — no hidden fees, no surprises on the invoice. As a general guide: blocked drain clearing typically starts from $150-300 depending on severity and access. Hot water system repairs start from $150, with full replacements ranging from $1,200 for basic electric through to $3,500+ for solar or heat pump systems. General plumbing repairs like tap replacements and toilet repairs typically start from $120-180. Gas work pricing depends on the appliance and connection complexity. As a sole operator without large company overheads, my rates are competitive. Call 0447 655 396 for a straight answer on your specific job.
What hot water system is best for a Caloundra home?
It depends on your home, family size and budget. For Caloundra's coastal environment, I generally recommend: heat pump systems for the best energy efficiency and lowest running costs; continuous flow gas systems for larger families who want instant unlimited hot water; solar hot water if you have good north-facing roof space and want to reduce bills long-term; and standard electric storage if upfront cost is the priority. One thing to watch in coastal areas is choosing a system with quality corrosion-resistant components — salt air eats through cheaper units faster than inland areas. I'll give you an honest recommendation for your specific situation, including available government rebates. Call 0447 655 396 or book online for a quote.
Do you offer same-day service in Caloundra?
Yes — same-day service is available across Caloundra for urgent jobs. Caloundra is part of my core service area so response times are fast. For emergencies like burst pipes, gas leaks or completely blocked drains, I prioritise these calls and aim to be there within 1-2 hours. For routine work, same-day availability depends on my schedule — calling early in the day gives you the best chance. I'll always be straight with you about when I can get there rather than leaving you hanging with a vague time window. Call me directly on 0447 655 396.
Do you work on rental properties and investment homes in Caloundra?
Yes — Caloundra has a large number of rental and holiday investment properties, and I work with both private landlords and property managers across the area. I understand the urgency of getting tenants back into a working property quickly and can coordinate directly with property managers for access and approvals. I provide detailed job reports and invoices suitable for property management records. If you're a landlord or property manager looking for a reliable local plumber for your Caloundra properties, give me a call on 0447 655 396 to discuss your ongoing needs.
How do I book a plumber in Caloundra?
Three easy ways — call me directly on 0447 655 396 (you'll speak to me, not a call centre), submit a booking request online at pagetradie.com.au, or use the booking form on this page. For urgent jobs, calling is fastest. For planned work, the online form is convenient and I typically respond within a few hours. When you contact me I'll discuss your job, give you honest pricing, and lock in a time that works for you. No vague windows, no subcontractors — you deal with me from the first call through to the completed job.
