Our Commercial Plumbing Services in Gold Coast

We provide end-to-end commercial plumbing solutions to handle every aspect of your business’s plumbing and drainage. From routine maintenance to emergency repairs, our licensed plumbers deliver prompt, professional service across the Gold Coast. Below are some of our core commercial services:

Plumbing Maintenance & Repairs

Preventative maintenance and prompt repairs are crucial for any commercial property. Our team conducts regular plumbing maintenance to catch issues early and keep your systems running optimally. We perform routine inspections, leak detection, and servicing of fixtures to stop small problems from becoming costly emergencies. If you’re dealing with dripping taps, running toilets or water pressure issues, we’ll fix them quickly to avoid disruption. For any urgent needs like burst pipes or malfunctioning appliances, our commercial plumbing repair experts respond swiftly with the right tools and parts. We work efficiently to repair or replace faulty pipes, valves, and fixtures so your business can continue operating with minimal interruption.

Blocked Drains & Drainage Solutions

Blocked or slow drains in a commercial setting can be a serious headache, leading to unpleasant odours, hygiene concerns, or even temporary closure of facilities. Our plumbers are specialists in clearing blocked commercial drains and restoring proper flow fast. We utilise advanced drain-clearing technology such as high-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting) and CCTV drain cameras to locate and remove stubborn blockages deep within the pipes. Whether it’s a clog caused by grease buildup in a restaurant sink or debris in an office stormwater line, we have the equipment to resolve it. Our commercial drainage solutions include cleaning and unclogging sinks, toilets, urinals, floor drains and stormwater pits. We not only clear the immediate blockage but also provide long-term solutions to prevent recurrence – for example, implementing drain maintenance schedules or installing strainers and filters. With our drainage experts just a call away, you can trust that any drain issue will be handled efficiently and safely, keeping your business clean and compliant.

Sewer Line Repairs & Pipe Relining

Broken or backed-up sewer lines can spell disaster for a commercial property, causing sewage leaks, bad smells, and health risks that can drive away customers or tenants. Tubeline’s plumbers are experienced in diagnosing and repairing commercial sewer line problems with minimal fuss. We handle cracked or collapsed pipes, tree root intrusions, and ageing sewer infrastructure using modern techniques. In many cases, we can avoid extensive excavation by using pipe relining – a trenchless repair method that fixes damaged pipes from the inside. Pipe relining involves inserting a durable resin liner into the existing sewer or drain pipe, which hardens to form a new pipe within the old one. This means we can repair underground sewer lines without digging up your car park or landscaped areas, saving your business time, money, and mess. Our sewer repair specialists will first inspect the line with cameras to pinpoint the issue, then recommend either a targeted sectional repair or a full pipe reline if appropriate. We focus on minimising disruptions for business plumbing repairs: scheduling work at convenient times and keeping the work site tidy and safe. The result is a permanent fix to your sewer problems, with pipes that function like new and are guaranteed to last for many years.

Stormwater & Grease Trap Drainage

Heavy Queensland rains can overwhelm a building’s stormwater drainage system if it’s not in top shape. We ensure your commercial property’s gutters, downpipes, roof drains and stormwater pits are clear and properly configured to channel water away. Our team can install and maintain stormwater drains, interceptors, and sumps to prevent flooding in your car parks or building entrances during Gold Coast’s storm season. If your business has outdoor areas or large roof surfaces, we’ll design effective drainage to cope with high volumes of water, protecting your premises from water damage.

For hospitality businesses, grease trap maintenance is another critical service we provide. Restaurants, cafés and commercial kitchens generate grease and food waste that must be trapped before entering the sewer system. We offer routine grease trap cleaning and servicing to keep these units functioning correctly and compliant with council regulations. Our plumbers will remove fat, oil and grease buildup and ensure your grease trap and connecting pipes are free of blockages that could cause overflows or foul smells. We can also repair or replace damaged grease traps and provide guidance on proper kitchen waste practices to reduce the frequency of clogs. By entrusting us with your grease trap and stormwater drainage needs, you’ll prevent costly blockages, avoid fines for non-compliance, and maintain a safer environment for your staff and customers.

Hot Water Systems for Businesses

Reliable hot water is essential for many businesses – from providing warm water for customer restrooms to powering industrial dishwashers or showers in gyms and hotels. Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage supplies, installs and services commercial hot water systems to ensure your business always has hot water on demand. Our licensed plumbers can work with all makes and models of water heaters, including high-capacity electric storage tanks, continuous flow (instantaneous) hot water units, gas-fired systems, and energy-efficient heat pump or solar hot water systems. We’ll assess your facility’s hot water usage and recommend the best solution, whether you need a new system installation or an upgrade to a more efficient unit.

If your existing commercial hot water system is having issues – such as inconsistent temperatures, leaks, strange noises, or no hot water at all – our team will troubleshoot and fix it promptly. We carry out hot water repairs like replacing heating elements, thermostats, tempering valves and pressure relief valves to restore your supply quickly. For businesses like restaurants, salons, hotels and apartment complexes that cannot function without hot water, we offer priority service to minimise downtime. We also perform scheduled servicing and tank flushing to prolong the lifespan of your hot water units and ensure they operate safely. With our experts overseeing your hot water systems for business, you can be confident of consistent performance and happy customers or staff.

Industrial & High-Rise Plumbing Solutions

Large industrial facilities and high-rise buildings present unique plumbing challenges – and Tubeline is equipped to handle them all. We have dedicated industrial plumbing expertise for factories, warehouses, and industrial plants around the Gold Coast. This includes installing and maintaining heavy-duty pipelines, valves and fittings that can handle high volumes or specialised fluids. We can set up customised plumbing systems for manufacturing processes, manage trade waste disposal and backflow prevention, and ensure everything meets safety and environmental standards. Our team understands that industrial sites often require robust solutions and quick turnaround to avoid production losses. We work closely with your facility managers to plan plumbing works that fit your operational schedule, including after-hours maintenance if needed. From repairing industrial pumps and floor drains to connecting new machinery or processing lines, we provide a single point of contact for all your industrial plumbing needs.

For high-rise plumbing in multi-storey buildings like hotels, resorts, office towers and apartments, we deliver solutions that keep water flowing smoothly from the ground floor to the top floor. Our plumbers are experienced with the complex pipe networks in high-rises, including booster pumps, pressure reduction valves, and circulation systems that maintain even water pressure on every level. We tackle common high-rise issues such as low water pressure on upper floors, insufficient hot water during peak usage, or recurring pipe leaks due to the building’s age or water hammer. By conducting thorough system audits, we can identify the causes of these problems and implement long-term fixes – for example, upgrading pump systems or installing expansion tanks. We also offer regular maintenance for high-rise plumbing infrastructure (including roof-top tanks, downpipes, and sewer stacks) to prevent emergencies like burst risers or interior flooding. Whether it’s an industrial plant or a high-rise building, Tubeline provides plumbing solutions that are safe, code-compliant, and tailored to the scale of your operations.

Who We Serve – Industries We Work With

Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage proudly partners with a wide range of industries and commercial sectors across the Gold Coast. We understand that each business environment has specific plumbing requirements and challenges. Our team adapts our services to suit your industry, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum effectiveness. Here are some of the key industries we serve and how we support them:

Retail & Shopping Centres

Retail stores, supermarkets, and shopping centres rely on functional plumbing to keep customers and staff comfortable. From public restrooms in a mall to the staff kitchenette in a boutique, even a minor plumbing issue can affect customer experience and sales. We provide responsive plumbing support for retail businesses, including fixing leaking toilets or taps, unclogging shop drains, and repairing drinking water fountains or amenities. Our plumbers can work outside of peak trading hours (such as early mornings or evenings) to perform maintenance or repairs, ensuring retail plumbing maintenance doesn’t interfere with your opening times. We also service large shopping centres by maintaining their extensive restroom facilities, sewer connections, and stormwater systems (preventing those car park floods during heavy rain). With Tubeline as your retail plumbing partner, you can focus on serving customers while we keep your water and drainage systems in top condition.

Restaurants, Cafés & Commercial Kitchens

Food service businesses often face intense plumbing demands due to constant dishwashing, food waste, and grease. We specialise in plumbing services for restaurants, cafés, bars, and commercial kitchens across Gold Coast. Our team will ensure your kitchen sinks, floor drains, and dishwashers are draining properly so your chefs can work without interruption. One of the biggest concerns in hospitality is grease buildup – we handle regular grease trap cleaning and maintenance to prevent back-ups or foul odours that could violate health regulations. If your café has a blocked sink or your restaurant’s toilet facilities aren’t flushing, we know an urgent response is needed to avoid downtime or health hazards. Count on our plumbers to arrive quickly and resolve any issue, from fixing a burst tap in the bar to replacing a broken hot water system so your kitchen can sanitize dishes effectively. We also offer preventative solutions like installing commercial drainage strainers and advising staff on best practices for disposing of fats and oils, helping to reduce plumbing emergencies. Our goal is to keep your hospitality business flowing smoothly, maintaining hygiene and compliance so that you can deliver a great experience to your patrons.

Offices & Corporate Buildings

Office buildings, coworking spaces and corporate headquarters need a well-maintained plumbing system to support their employees’ daily needs. We work with offices and commercial buildings to ensure everything from the bathrooms to the break room kitchen is functioning reliably. Tubeline offers routine maintenance for office plumbing, including checking and servicing toilets, urinals, sinks, and water filtration units. We promptly address any issues like blocked office toilets, leaking faucets, or malfunctioning flush mechanisms that could inconvenience your staff or clients. In multi-storey office blocks, we manage plumbing for each floor as well as the main sewer and water connections. If your corporate building has a sudden plumbing problem – for instance, a burst pipe causing water damage or a blocked drain flooding a restroom – our team will act fast to contain the issue and perform the necessary repair. We understand that a clean and operational facility is part of your professional image. That’s why our plumbers work discreetly and efficiently, often coordinating with building managers to perform work after hours if needed. By entrusting us with your corporate plumbing maintenance, you create a safer, more comfortable workplace and avoid costly interruptions to your business operations.

Hotels, Resorts & High-Rises

Hotels and high-rise residential buildings have extensive plumbing networks supporting hundreds of guests or residents at any given time. Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage has the capacity to service hotels, resorts, apartment complexes and high-rise buildings throughout the Gold Coast. We appreciate that in hospitality, a plumbing failure can directly impact guest satisfaction – imagine a hotel without hot showers or with overflowing drains. Our team provides both preventative and emergency plumbing services to keep your establishment’s reputation intact. We can maintain large boiler systems, circulation pumps, and multi-story piping to ensure consistent water pressure and temperature on all floors (so that penthouse suite gets a shower just as good as the ground-floor room!). We also promptly fix issues like clogged hotel toilets, broken shower heads, or leaking pipes in guest rooms to minimise room downtime. For resort properties with pools and spas, we repair and plumb filtration and pump systems as well. Additionally, we assist high-rise building managers with specialised tasks such as roof plumbing (servicing roof drains and gutters on tall buildings) and testing of fire hydrants and hose reels where plumbing integration is required. With our high-rise plumbing expertise, including safe work methods at heights and coordination with elevators and building security, you can be confident that even the tallest plumbing order is well within our reach.

Schools, Universities & Aged Care Facilities

Educational institutions and aged care homes have a duty to provide safe and sanitary conditions for students, staff, and residents. We support schools, colleges, universities, and aged care facilities by ensuring their plumbing and drainage systems are robust and reliable. In schools, we often handle tasks like repairing student bathroom fixtures, unclogging playground drains, and fixing drinking fountains or science lab sinks. We can schedule larger jobs (for example, replacing multiple toilet suites or upgrading old pipes) during school holidays or weekends to avoid disrupting classes. For universities with multiple buildings and campus facilities, we offer a coordinated approach to maintain consistency and quick response across the site.

In aged care facilities and nursing homes, plumbing reliability is absolutely critical – vulnerable residents depend on functioning toilets, bathing facilities, and kitchen services around the clock. Our team is sensitive to the needs of healthcare environments: we work tidily and efficiently, mindful of infection control and resident comfort. We can install and service thermostatic mixing valves to ensure safe water temperatures (preventing scalds for elderly residents), regularly test and repair hot water systems that supply patient rooms and laundries, and respond rapidly to any leaks or blockages that could pose a hazard. By partnering with Tubeline, schools and care facilities benefit from professional plumbing maintenance that prioritises health, safety, and compliance with government standards.

Industrial & Warehouse Plumbing

From manufacturing plants to large distribution warehouses, industrial sites require plumbing systems that can handle tough conditions. We provide industrial plumbing services for a variety of Gold Coast industries including manufacturing, agriculture, automotive, and logistics. This can involve installing heavy-duty pipes and valves for process water or compressed air lines, setting up backflow prevention devices to protect the potable water supply, and creating custom drainage solutions for factory floors and wash-down areas. We also service warehouse plumbing such as restroom blocks for staff, roof and gutter systems on expansive warehouse roofs, and safety equipment like eye-wash stations or emergency showers that must be properly plumbed.

Industrial plumbing often intersects with environmental and safety regulations. Tubeline’s plumbers ensure your facility remains compliant by performing required testing and certification – for example, annual backflow prevention tests or trade waste system maintenance as mandated by local councils. We can also assist with grease trap or oily water separator maintenance for workshops and any necessary pumping solutions to move wastewater from basement levels to the sewer. Understanding that downtime in an industrial setting can halt production, we aim to perform installations and repairs swiftly and correctly the first time. Our team is trained in site safety (we carry appropriate inductions and insurances) and we coordinate with site managers to mitigate any impact on your operations. With our industrial plumbing know-how, your Gold Coast facility will benefit from efficient water supply, proper waste handling, and infrastructure that supports your productivity.

FAQs About Commercial Plumbing and Drainage in Gold Coast

Q: What types of commercial plumbing and drainage issues can Tubeline handle?

A: We handle all common commercial plumbing problems and more. Our team is equipped to fix blocked drains and toilets, leaking taps and pipes, faulty hot water systems, broken fixtures, sewer line repairs, gas appliance connections, and roofing or gutter drainage issues. We also take on complex jobs like installing plumbing for new commercial builds or renovating existing pipelines to increase capacity. In short, whether it’s a minor leak or a major plumbing overhaul, we have the expertise to get it done. This comprehensive capability makes us a one-stop shop for business plumbing services on the Gold Coast.

Q: How is commercial plumbing different from residential plumbing?

A: Commercial plumbing systems are often larger in scale and face heavier usage than residential ones. For example, a shopping centre will have multiple public restrooms, extensive piping networks, and high water usage daily – far more complex than a single-family home. Commercial systems may also involve specialised equipment like grease traps, industrial water heaters, or high-capacity pumps that aren’t found in homes. Additionally, businesses must comply with stricter codes and health regulations (for instance, restaurants need regular grease trap maintenance and backflow prevention devices). Commercial plumbers like us are trained to handle these demands: we use heavy-duty materials, design systems for high frequency use, and ensure everything meets regulatory standards. We also understand that business downtime is costly, so we often work under time constraints or outside normal hours to fix issues promptly. In summary, while the basic principles of plumbing are the same, commercial plumbing requires a higher level of expertise, planning, and responsiveness due to its complexity and critical nature in a business environment.

Q: Why is preventative maintenance important for commercial plumbing systems?

A: Preventative maintenance is essential for businesses because it keeps your plumbing and drainage in good working order and helps avoid unexpected breakdowns. In a commercial setting, a burst pipe or severe blockage can force you to close temporarily or incur expensive damage. Regular maintenance – such as periodic drain cleaning, pipe inspections, leak checks, and servicing of valves and pumps – significantly reduces these risks. By scheduling routine check-ups (for example, having us inspect your system every 6 or 12 months), small issues can be identified and fixed before they escalate into major problems. Maintenance also extends the lifespan of your plumbing infrastructure; things like descaling pipes or tightening fittings will keep everything running smoothly for longer. Moreover, staying on top of upkeep ensures you remain compliant with any safety or health regulations (like mandatory annual testing of backflow prevention devices or TMVs in certain businesses). In essence, preventative maintenance saves your business money and hassle in the long run by preventing plumbing emergencies, improving efficiency (well-maintained systems often use less water/energy), and providing peace of mind that your facilities will work when you need them most.

Q: Do you offer emergency commercial plumbing services for businesses?

A: Yes, we do. We understand that some plumbing issues just can’t wait – especially in a business environment where time literally equals money. If you experience a sudden plumbing emergency at your workplace, such as a gushing burst pipe, an overflowing toilet, or a major leak, you can call Tubeline for a rapid response. Our emergency commercial plumbing service will prioritise your call and aim to dispatch an experienced plumber as quickly as possible. While our standard operating hours are Monday to Friday, we do make arrangements for after-hours emergencies and will assist whenever we’re able. During an emergency visit, we will quickly assess the situation, shut off water or gas if necessary to prevent further damage, and then proceed with the appropriate repair. We carry a range of spare parts and professional equipment to tackle most emergencies on the spot. The goal is to get your business back up and running with minimal disruption. Remember: in a plumbing emergency, safety comes first – if there’s electrics near a leak or a risk of flooding, take necessary precautions and then ring us. With Tubeline at the other end of the phone, you have a dependable lifeline for any urgent plumbing crisis.

Q: What is pipe relining and is it suitable for my commercial property?

A: Pipe relining is a modern, no-dig method of repairing damaged pipes underground or within walls. Instead of excavating the old pipe to replace it (which can be very disruptive and costly, especially on commercial premises like car parks, driveways or landscaped areas), we insert a special epoxy resin liner into the existing pipe. This liner is then expanded and cured in place, forming a tough new pipe inside the old one. The result is a durable, joint-free “pipe within a pipe” that seals any cracks or breaks. Pipe relining is often an excellent solution for commercial properties dealing with aging drains, root-infested sewer lines, or cracks caused by ground movement. It allows us to fix long sections of pipe with minimal digging – often just a small access hole. The new relined pipe is often stronger and smoother (less prone to clogging) than the original. Most importantly for businesses, relining greatly reduces downtime and site disturbance. You won’t have trenches and excavation crews interrupting your operations for days; instead, the process is completed much faster and cleaner. Not every situation is suitable for relining (for example, if a pipe is completely collapsed or flattened, a section replacement might be needed), but in many cases it’s a fantastic option. We can inspect your problematic drain with a camera and advise if pipe relining is the best fix. Many Gold Coast businesses have benefited from this technology, getting their broken drains permanently repaired without the headache of traditional dig-ups.

Q: How often should grease traps be cleaned in a commercial kitchen?

A: Grease traps in restaurants and commercial kitchens should be cleaned regularly to prevent blockages and comply with local regulations. As a general rule, grease traps should be serviced every 1 to 3 months, depending on the size of the trap and the volume of grease your kitchen produces. High-output restaurants (like fast food outlets or busy cafés) might need monthly cleaning, whereas smaller kitchens may manage quarterly. The Gold Coast council bylaws typically require routine maintenance and proper disposal of the grease waste by licensed contractors. Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage offers scheduled grease trap cleaning services to take this task off your plate. During a service, we pump out the accumulated fats, oils and food solids, clean the trap thoroughly, and inspect the trap and connecting pipes for any issues. Regular cleaning ensures that the grease trap can do its job of preventing greasy waste from entering the sewer lines – which in turn averts nasty blockages and fines for environmental non-compliance. We’ll work with you to set an appropriate cleaning schedule and keep records, so you always meet health inspection requirements. If you ever notice signs your grease trap is full – like slow-draining sinks or a rancid smell near the unit – give us a call and we’ll arrange an immediate service. Consistent grease trap maintenance is an essential part of commercial drainage solutions for any food business, and we’re here to help you stay on top of it.

Q: Can Tubeline assist with plumbing fit-outs for new commercial buildings or renovations?

A: Absolutely. In addition to repairs and maintenance, we undertake commercial plumbing installations and fit-outs for new constructions or refurbishments. If you are setting up a new business location, expanding your facility, or renovating an existing commercial space, our team can design and install the complete plumbing and drainage system. We collaborate with builders, architects, and project managers to ensure the plumbing layout meets your operational needs and complies with all codes. Our services include installing water supply lines, sewer and stormwater pipes, toilets and bathroom amenities, kitchens and sinks, grease traps, hot water units, pumps, and more – essentially every plumbing component your business might require. We also handle commercial gas fitting for kitchens or boilers as needed. Throughout the project, we focus on quality workmanship and timely delivery to keep your build on schedule. After installation, we conduct thorough testing and certification (e.g. pressure tests, commissioning of hot water systems, backflow prevention certification) so you can be confident everything is working perfectly from day one. Many Gold Coast businesses have trusted Tubeline for their plumbing fit-outs – whether it’s a new restaurant, an office refurb, or a factory extension. We take pride in helping your vision come to life with reliable plumbing that will serve you for years to come.
