Plumber, Drainer and Gasfitter Licences Explained
An occupational licence is what Queensland requires of anyone on the tools doing plumbing and drainage work, and the business carrying the job needs its own contractor licence; both come from the QBCC. The first proves the holder has the skills. The second proves the business behind the name has the money and management backing to stand behind its jobs.
Three licence classes matter around a home:
Plumber
the pipework and fixtures of the water supply and waste system, apart from anything needing its own endorsement.
Drainer
the below-ground drainage, again apart from anything with a separate endorsement.
Gasfitter
fuel gas sits apart from both, covering installing, altering, repairing, servicing, testing and certifying gas systems and their pipework.
Regulated plumbing and drainage work splits into permit work, notifiable work and minor work, and all three categories require a licensed plumber or drainer. The QBCC says that rule protects your house, your health and your rights as an owner.
How We Diagnose Quote Repair and Test
- 1
Describe the problem
Phone (07) 3523 7172 or fill in the form with what you're seeing in Sandstone Point. The more we know, the better we can prepare.

We find the cause on site
We come out, check the fixture or the line, and trace the fault to its real cause rather than the symptom. Around streets like Carpenter Way, much of the 1990s and 2000s stock is at the age where fittings simply wear out, so the diagnosis often points at a tired part rather than a bigger problem.

Agree on the price
A fixed quote comes before any work starts: flat-rate pricing, no hidden fees, and your go-ahead first.

How Plumbing Work Is Regulated in Queensland
Two bodies share the oversight: the QBCC runs licensing and the register of notifiable jobs, while the local council processes applications, grants permits and carries out inspections.
The paperwork you receive depends on the job:
- After notifiable work, the Form 4 copy goes to you or whoever engaged us. If yours never arrives, the QBCC will provide it.
- After gas work on a new install or an alteration, the licensed gasfitter hands you a gas compliance certificate straight away, and sends its copy on to the network operator inside 5 days.
You can also request a council inspection while a notifiable job runs or after it finishes. The QBCC's online registers let you confirm a licence and check whether a Form 4 has been lodged for your address.

Questions About Our Licences
Call (07) 3523 7172What is the difference between a plumber and a drainer?
A plumber's licence covers the pipes and fixtures inside and on your home. A drainer's licence covers the below-ground drainage, like the sewer and stormwater lines running through your yard.
Does gas work in a Sandstone Point home need a separate licence?
Yes, only a licensed gasfitter may do gas work in Queensland, on a licence separate from plumbing. Before any gas job begins, you're entitled to ask for the gas work licence first.
Does plumbing work come with a warranty?
Yes, our labour carries a lifetime labour warranty, and our Fix-It-or-It's-Free guarantee backs it (T&Cs apply).
What can I do if plumbing work in Sandstone Point turns out faulty?
Raise the problem with your plumber first. If the job looks unlicensed, defective or non-compliant, the QBCC takes complaints through its online form.
