Latest Projects

Replacement of Hydronic Heating, Radiator Valves throughout the Student Accommodation Building.LaTrobe University (LTU)

This job required the team to individually isolate and drain all systems across the accommodation, including adjusting the pipework to suit the new valves.

167 new valves were installed, making special considerations for works in the unique student accommodation buildings. Once installation was complete, all of the valves were tested and radiators were bled to ensure all systems were fit for use in time for the chilly months!

Burst Water Main

The University of Melbourne (UoM)

The burst water main at UoM required us to work around asbestos and involved a confined space entry (CSE) under the Engineering Building, so with these high risk works required, as always safety was paramount. A flooded Ground Floor and tunnel required several pumps to remove the water!

We immediately installed temporary water mains to supply the surrounding buildings, as well as new isolation valves. The water main was repaired on both sides of the tunnel. This involved cutting out the old main, and reconnect with 20m of 180mm HDPE piping.

Spotlight on… 

Irrigation Technician – Drew

Drew has been working with Reliable Plumbing for 2 and a half years, so we recently caught up with him to discuss his experience at the company and his love for plumbing!

“What do you enjoy most about working at Reliable?”

The variety of work is what I enjoy most. The high calibre clientele who are forward thinking… They can recognise good value and investment in innovative products. They want good high end, quality products that save energy and water. Reliable also has a great support network on and off the field.

“What kind of plumber do you want to be?”

I’m right where I want to be, at the top of my game being a registered irrigator and plumber. The clientele of Reliable allows me to keep being innovative and challenge myself to continuously offer a new way of thinking.

“Do you have any advice for up and coming plumbers?”

It can be a hard road but we all do it and you will get put the other side and reap the rewards.

I have been working on a shovel for nearly 30 years. My best advice…

“Don’t fight the shovel, make the shovel your friend!”
