Residential Construction Plumbing From Slab To Handover
Getting the plumbing right during construction avoids expensive rework after the walls are closed. AR Plumbing Service provides plumbing for new residential builds across Pottsville and the Tweed Shire, covering sewer and stormwater drainage, water supply rough-in, gas fitting, hot water installation, and final fixture fit-off. The team works directly with builders and owner-builders to coordinate plumbing stages with the build program.

Gas Fitting
Gas supply lines for hot water systems, cooktops, ovens, gas heaters, and outdoor gas points are installed and pressure tested. LPG bottle setups and internal gas connections are handled in-house.
Fit-Off
Once painting and finishing are complete, all fixtures are installed and connected — toilets, basins, tapware, showers, baths, dishwasher connections, washing machine outlets, and outdoor taps. Each fixture is tested for leaks and flow before handover.
Under-Slab And Drainage
Before the slab is poured, sewer drainage, stormwater lines, and water supply penetrations are installed and positioned to match the approved plans. Correct placement at this stage is critical — moving a drain or supply point after the slab is poured is costly and disruptive.
Rough-In
Once the frame is up, water supply lines, waste pipes, and vent stacks are installed through walls, floors, and ceilings. Tap positions, toilet waste locations, shower and bath connections, laundry outlets, and outdoor tap points are all set during rough-in. The rough-in must pass inspection before the walls are lined.
Hot Water System Installation
The hot water system — gas, electric, heat pump, or instant — is installed and connected during the later stages of the build. System selection is discussed early so the right space, ventilation, and energy connections are allowed for in the design.
Working With Builders And Owner-Builders
AR Plumbing Service works with both registered builders and owner-builders across the Tweed Shire. The team understands construction scheduling and coordinates plumbing stages with the other trades on site.
For owner-builders managing the project themselves, the plumber can advise on staging, assist with plumbing layout interpretation, and identify potential issues early — such as insufficient sewer fall, gas appliance ventilation requirements, or hot water system placement affecting pipe runs and delivery times.
The Tweed region's mix of new coastal estates, rural acreage builds, and infill housing brings different site conditions. Sandy coastal lots drain differently from clay-based hinterland blocks, and council requirements can vary depending on the development type and location. Local knowledge of these conditions helps avoid delays and compliance issues during construction.
