Plumber Bentley

Bentley WA 6102, City of Canning. About 8 km south-east of the Perth CBD.

Bentley is a suburb about eight kilometres south-east of the Perth CBD, shared between the City of Canning and the Town of Victoria Park, and home to the main Curtin University campus and Technology Park. For a plumber that makes it largely institutional: amenity blocks serving thousands during semester, research and commercial buildings with requirements ordinary premises do not have, and student accommodation whose hot water demand peaks hard at the same hour each morning.

• A major university campusCampus amenity blocks take thousands of uses a day in semester and almost none in the breaks, which wears tapware and cisterns on a completely different cycle to domestic fixtures. That work is best planned into the semester breaks rather than attempted mid-term.
• Student accommodation with peaked demandResidential colleges and student housing draw their hot water hard in the same narrow window each morning. A system sized on average daily use will run out every day regardless of its condition, so sizing has to be done on the peak rather than the average.
• Technology Park and research buildingsResearch and laboratory premises carry drainage and backflow prevention requirements that ordinary commercial buildings do not, including testable devices needing annual certification. We test, tag and provide the report those buildings need.
• Housing around the campus edgesThe residential streets here include a lot of rental property serving students, where a leaking tap or blocked drain needs a written quote approved by an agent before the repair proceeds. We provide that rather than leaving a tenant relaying messages.
