    Top Plumbing Tips for Ultimo Residents

    1

    Know your water shut-off valves

    Locate your main and appliance shut-offs to stop flooding quickly before your plumber arrives.

    2

    Keep your drains clear

    Don’t pour fats, oils, or coffee grounds down sinks. Use drain strainers and schedule professional jet cleaning when needed.

    3

    Detect hidden leaks early

    Look for damp spots, mould, or rising water bills. Early leak detection prevents damage and wasted water.

    4

    Service your hot water annually

    Regular servicing of valves and thermostats keeps your system efficient and prevents sudden breakdowns.

    5

    Listen for plumbing noises

    Hammering or gurgling pipes may signal air pressure issues — get a qualified plumber to Ultimo to investigate early.

    What Our Clients Say

    Best plumbing service I’ve dealt with in a long time. Chris is superb. I was recommended by a family friend. Best to book ahead as he is very busy, but worth the wait. He took into account my mother’s arthritic needs as she had issues with turning the kitchen sink handles and resolved the leaking issue, and took the time to show and explain everything. Thank you, Chris. Hope to deal with you again for further plumbing solutions.

    Suzie Ferreira

    We had a Saturday morning plumbing emergency, with water backing into our downstairs bathroom. Chris arrived within an hour and was able to sort the issue quickly. He explained and demonstrated what the problem had been and provided great advice for possible long term solutions. I chose Civic based on being local and great google reviews and I’m glad we did.

    Ingrid Johnston

    Awesome service. Called up and had my hot water tank replaced. Chris the plumber even helped me out by removing a rusty screw. Great service, from first call to problem being fixed was less than 45 minutes.

    5 Interesting Facts About Ultimo

    1

    Ultimo was nearly demolished for a freeway.

    In the 1960s and 1970s, major freeway plans would have destroyed large parts of Ultimo, but community opposition and Green Bans helped save its historic streets.

    2

    The Powerhouse Museum was once a power station.

    The museum is housed in the former Ultimo Tramway Power Station, which once supplied electricity to Sydney’s tram network.

    Had a plumbing issue come up at the worst possible time and gave Civic Plumbing a call not really expecting anyone to pick up. They actually answered after hours and talked us through the whole thing with honest advice. Really refreshing dealing with someone who's not trying to upsell you on stuff you don't need. Would definitely recommend them to anyone around Sydney. 👍

    Water was comin up through all the drains in our bathroom, and even though I called up late afternoon Chris was still able to come out within a couple of hours. Pulled out a blockage the size of a small cat and was sorted without any fuss. This is the second time Civic has come through for us, we'll be sure to call them next time they're needed!
