Plumber Oakleigh
A drain in Oakleigh that keeps blocking no matter how often it is cleared usually has tree roots to answer for, and the mature, leafy streets around here are full of them. Around Town Plumbing is a general local plumber for Oakleigh and the City of Monash, and drains are the work the suburb calls for most. We camera the line before we touch it, so you get the real cause rather than another temporary clear. We are licensed, registered and insured, offer same-day response for burst pipes and blocked drains within business hours, Monday to Friday 7am to 5pm. Call 03 7023 5494 for a free quote and a fixed, upfront price.
Blocked Drains And Tree Toots, Camera First
Oakleigh’s older streets run on aging earthenware and clay sewers, and the same trees that make the suburb pleasant to live in send roots straight into the joints. Clearing the blockage without finding the cause just books you a repeat visit. We run a CCTV inspection down the line first, so we can see exactly where roots are getting in and how bad the pipe is, then clear it with high-pressure water jetting and re-camera to confirm it is genuinely clear. If the pipe is cracked or collapsing, we show you the footage and talk through a repair rather than leaving you to clear it every few months.

Commercial plumbing for Eaton Mall and Oakleigh Central
Oakleigh’s town centre is a genuinely busy trading precinct, from the Greek cafes and restaurants along Eaton Mall to the shops and offices around Oakleigh Central. Hospitality and retail premises cannot afford plumbing down during service, so we work around trading hours where we can and get the problem solved with as little interruption as possible. Our commercial scope stays within what we are qualified and accredited for: general commercial plumbing, gas fitting, drains, hot water and certified backflow prevention.
Industrial work in Oakleigh South and Huntingdale
Much of the wider search around Oakleigh lands in the Oakleigh South and Huntingdale industrial area, where factories and warehouses need a different scale of plumbing than a shopfront. Our commercial and industrial side handles large-site drainage with CCTV and jetting, backflow prevention, hot water for amenities and scheduled maintenance for facility managers. We are honest about our limits: we do not claim confined-space entry, fire-service or TMV testing, or specialist welding, and we will say so if a job needs a ticket we do not hold.
Strata and owners corporations around the station
The apartment growth near Oakleigh station keeps adding multi-dwelling stock, and a burst pipe or blocked drain in a block affects several homes at once. We attend the same day, camera the line to find the real cause fast, and coordinate access so residents are disrupted as little as possible, with one accountable team across every unit and the paperwork a property manager needs.
Same-day response and honest hours
We do not run 24 hours, and we will not pretend otherwise. We work Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm. Inside those hours, our ten-van fleet means a burst pipe or a blocked drain in Oakleigh usually gets a plumber the same day, and you get an honest time rather than a place in a queue.

Plumber Oakleigh FAQs
Why does my Oakleigh drain keep blocking?
In Oakleigh’s older, tree-lined streets it is very often tree roots getting into aging earthenware sewers. A CCTV inspection shows exactly where, so jetting clears it and we can advise whether the pipe itself needs repair rather than another clear.
How much should I expect to pay a plumber?
It depends on the job, which is why an over-the-phone figure is rarely reliable. We give you a free quote and a fixed price agreed before we start, so the total is settled before any work happens.
How do you spot a dodgy plumber?
Ask for the plumbing licence number, confirm registration and insurance, and get a written price before work begins. We tick all three, every job.
Can you handle a cafe or shop in the Oakleigh town centre?
Yes. We work with hospitality and retail premises around Eaton Mall and Oakleigh Central, fitting in around trading hours where possible and keeping disruption to a minimum.
