Strata and multi-unit

Strata plumbing and mechanical service, planned around the building.

One plumbing problem can disrupt many homes. We help you control the damage, plan access, keep people informed, and understand what happens next.

Built for shared property

One issue can affect many homes and many stakeholders.

01

Urgency and containment

Active leaks, backups, service loss, and unsafe conditions are assessed by phone so immediate risk and access can be understood before dispatch.

02

Access and authorization

Identify affected units or common areas, site contacts, entry requirements, and the person authorized to approve work.

03

Clear scope and disruption

Define what is included, likely interruption, sequencing, limitations, and what could change after access or investigation.

04

Findings and follow-up

Give councils and managers a record of the condition, completed work, limitations, and recommended next steps.

Real project stories show the planning behind access, resident disruption, excavation, lifting, field work, and follow-up.

Before dispatch

The information that prevents avoidable delays.

SITE

Building and affected area

Address, building type, unit or common-area location, number of affected homes, and whether the condition is spreading.

ACCESS

Keys, suites, rooms, and parking

Who will meet the technician, how restricted areas are entered, and whether equipment access or parking must be arranged.

AUTHORITY

Approval and spending authority

The authorized contact, emergency authorization limit, council or manager approval path, and any insurer involvement.

HISTORY

Previous work and recurring symptoms

Prior invoices, camera files, drawings, affected stacks, shutoff history, and previous recommendations.

Prevent repeat incidents

Preventive plumbing is a record, a cadence, and a building plan.

Useful maintenance is more specific than a generic service agreement. It identifies the equipment or drainage area, observed condition, completed work, immediate risks, future priorities, and the next review point.

01

Set the inspection cadence by risk

Drainage, pumps, shared water systems, mechanical equipment, and known recurring issues do not all need the same schedule. Start with failure history, operating impact, access, and seasonality.

02

Plan shutdowns before they become emergencies

Define the affected area, notice period, access contacts, isolation points, resident impact, and recovery checks before approved work starts.

03

Keep one defensible service record

Retain reported symptoms, photos, camera files, findings, approved work, tests, limitations, and future recommendations in one place for the council, manager, insurer, and next technician.

04

Turn repeated calls into a planned decision

When the same condition returns, compare the evidence and cost of repeat response with the scope, disruption, and value of a longer-term repair.

Council and manager questions

What should be defined before planned work?

Who is responsible: owner or strata?+

Responsibility depends on the strata plan, bylaws, location of the failed component, common property, limited common property, and legal interpretation. Technical findings can identify location, but do not determine legal responsibility.

When should residents be notified?+

Before planned access, shutdown, noise, odour, equipment movement, or interruption. Emergency communication may need to happen concurrently with stabilization.

What belongs in the service record?+

Reported condition, affected areas, access, observations, tests, authorized and completed work, limitations, photos or files, restored status, and follow-up recommendations.
