A real person answers, day or night

A new system, sized for the house it serves

Installing hot water is a once-a-decade decision, not a part swap, so the unit you choose should match the household, the position and the pipe work already in the walls. Prefer to talk it through first? Call (02) 9072 0504 and a licensed plumber will help you choose.

What this peninsula asks of a new hot water system

Tight side passages

Plenty of interwar homes here run old storage units in narrow side passages flanked by double-brick walls, so an install often means slim-profile tanks, compact continuous flow units or careful crane lifts rather than a straightforward back-garden swap.

Weatherboard and brick mix

Cottages in original condition sit beside fully rebuilt prestige homes, so the same installation job might mean protecting hundred-year-old linings on one street and working to builder schedules on the next.

Steep bay-side falls

Waterfront blocks drop hard toward Woodford and Tambourine Bays, and a tank repositioned down a slope means longer pipe runs, extra structural support and supply lines sized for the distance.

Hot water systems we install

Every install below is quoted upfront and commissioned properly, whether it is a straight swap into an existing niche or part of a larger renovation bringing hot water to a new floor. For end-of-life swaps rather than new installs, see hot water replacement.

Storage tank installs

Mains-pressure storage remains the workhorse for big households with simultaneous morning demand, and we fit gas or electric tanks, position them for valve access, upgrade the supply where needed and pressure-test every joint before handing over.

Continuous flow units

Wall-mounted continuous flow systems suit tight peninsula side passages beautifully because they free the floor entirely and deliver endless hot water for back-to-back showers, and we size the flow rate against real peak demand so nobody finishes a shower shivering.

Gas system installs

Gas hot water pairs strongly with homes already holding a connection, and our licensed fitters handle the full job including flueing, regulator work, commissioning and compliance paperwork, coordinated so the household loses hot water only for the switchover itself. More in our gas hot water systems guide.

Electric system installs

Electric storage suits homes without gas and pairs well with off-peak tariffs where the wiring allows, and we confirm capacity, fit the tempering valve correctly and connect through new isolation valves so future servicing never becomes a whole-system shutdown. The trade-offs sit in our electric hot water systems comparison.

Relocations and upgrade installs

Renovations regularly move hot water: a new bathroom upstairs, a laundry where a porch used to be, a tank pushed out of a passage into the open. We reroute supply and flueing properly and leave the old footprint patched and finished.

Assembling pipe fittings before installation

Salt air and the bay-front factor

The river climate here is sheltered but salt exposure is real, and it concentrates hardest on the bay-front addresses, where the evening breeze carries straight off the water.

For those homes

, we specify units with stronger corrosion protection and note them for closer anode checks.

Access adds its own layer

, because with one road spine in and out via Northwood Road, we schedule deliveries and crane lifts around the traffic reality of a peninsula rather than pretending it does not exist.

Common problems a new install solves

An old system rarely fails politely, and most installation calls start with one of these three stories from houses along the peninsula's slopes.

The unit that never quite recovered

A system limping along after repeated element, valve or thermostat failures usually costs more each year than a replacement saves, and when the tank shell itself shows corrosion the honest answer is a new install rather than another repair on borrowed time.

The flow that faded household-wide

Weak hot water at every tap points back at corroded supply or a unit choked with sediment, and in unrenovated cottages still carrying galvanised lines we assess the whole feed before installing. Suspect a leak in that feed? Our leak detection team traces it first.

The space that no longer works

Old tanks squeezed into passages or wedged against laundry walls create servicing nightmares, and a new installation is the natural moment to relocate the unit, free the space and route everything so the next plumber who visits is grateful rather than cursing.

The van stocked with parts to fix it on the first visit

Why acting on a failing system matters

A dead unit arrives without an appointment, and the household that plans its replacement on its own terms always does better than the one choosing a system at midnight in a flooded passage.

  • Control the cost, not the crisis An emergency swap forces rushed decisions and whatever is on the truck, while a planned install lets you compare gas, electric and continuous flow options properly and size the system genuinely right for the household.
  • Protect the fabric of the house A tank that lets go above or beside finished floors, renovated joinery or double-brick walls does damage far beyond the plumbing bill, and replacing before failure keeps the water inside the pipes where it belongs.
  • Cut running costs for the next decade Modern systems heat more efficiently than units a decade or two old, and matching the type to actual household use often shows up as a genuinely smaller bill within the first few quarters.

How it works

How the installation runs, step by step

  1. 01

    Call and tell us

    Ring (02) 9072 0504 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.

  2. 02

    Quote before work

    Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.

  3. 03

    Fit, connect and commission

    On the day your plumber protects the work area, disconnects and removes the old unit, positions the new system, extends supply or flueing as the install genuinely requires, pressure-tests every joint, sets the tempering valve safely and walks you through the controls before leaving the space clean and the water hot.

  4. 04

    Backed for life

    Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.

Why choose Your Plumber Longueville

Fixed prices, kept

Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.

Licensed and insured

Your Plumber Longueville works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.

Lifetime Labour Warranty

Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.

Genuinely local response

We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.

Where we work

Areas we service

Installation crews cover Northwood, Riverview, Lane Cove, Woolwich and Greenwich alongside the peninsula itself, bringing the same fixed-price approach to every bay and slope on the river, with a stocked van that treats each suburb's housing stock as familiar rather than foreign.

Good questions, straight answers

Hot water questions locals around here ask

What size hot water system does a peninsula home need?

A household of four usually suits a 160 to 250 litre storage tank or a mid-range continuous flow unit, and we size every install against your actual usage rather than a catalogue guess.

Can you fit a system into a narrow side passage?

Yes, because interwar homes here often hide old tanks in tight passages between double-brick walls, we carry slim-profile tanks and compact units suited to those exact spaces.

How long does a hot water installation take?

Most like-for-like swaps finish within a day, while a fuel change or a relocation adds hours for extra pipe runs, gas fitting work or certification.

Do salt-air conditions shorten a system's life?

Homes along the bay foreshores see the strongest salt exposure, so we specify better corrosion protection there and check anodes more often at service visits.

Gas or electric hot water, which should I choose?

Gas suits homes with an existing connection and high simultaneous demand, electric suits smaller households or off-peak tariffs, and we walk through both honestly against your usage.

Is the old unit removed as part of the job?

Yes, every installation includes safe disconnection, drainage and removal of the old tank plus disposal, so you are left with a working system and nothing left to organise.
