Living in Noosa and the Pomona hinterland means enjoying a unique coastal-hinterland lifestyle — but it also comes with specific plumbing challenges. From salty coastal air to heavy summer rains, local conditions can put extra stress on your home’s plumbing. Regular plumbing maintenance is the key to avoiding unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs.

Here’s our year-round plumbing care checklist tailored for homes in Noosa and the hinterland.

🌞 Summer – Prepare for Storms and Heavy Rain

• Check stormwater drains – Clear out leaves and debris to prevent blockages.

• Inspect gutters and downpipes – Proper drainage reduces the risk of water damage.

• Test outdoor taps – Frequent summer use can lead to leaks.

🍂 Autumn – Focus on Preventative Care

• Inspect hot water systems – As the weather cools, make sure your system is reliable.

• Check for leaks – Even a slow drip can waste thousands of litres per year.

• Service gas appliances – Ensure heaters and cooktops are safe and efficient.

❄ Winter – Keep Warm and Efficient

• Check gas heating systems – A professional service ensures safety and efficiency.

• Insulate exposed pipes – Helps prevent damage during chilly hinterland nights.

• Inspect toilets and cisterns – Small leaks can add up to big water bills.

🌸 Spring – Refresh and Reset

• Check outdoor plumbing – Irrigation, pool systems, and garden taps get heavy use in spring.

• Water efficiency audit – Install water-saving taps and fixtures to reduce costs.

• Schedule a full plumbing inspection – Catch issues early before summer storms arrive again.
