Lancelin's local plumber and gas fitter
North Contracting is based right here in Lancelin — licensed plumbing and gas from a local plumber who actually lives where you do, not a van dispatched up from Perth.
This is home. North Contracting has been based in Lancelin since Kim started the business in 2011. Being local is not a marketing line — it is the whole point. When your hot water fails before a full house of guests, or a drain blocks between changeovers, we are not three hours away on the freeway. We are the crew that knows this town's coastal homes and how the coast treats a system. One licensed owner-operator, plumbing and gas both, proper WA paperwork every job.
“Not a van sent up from Perth — the crew that lives where you do.”
Based in town, not driving up from Perth
Most trades servicing Lancelin are driving up from the northern suburbs, and that shows up in your wait time and your bill. We are already here. Based in town, we can get to jobs from the marina to the back blocks of Nilgen without burning half a day on the road. That local footing means quicker call-outs, tighter timeframes and no travel padding buried in the quote. For a holiday town where a burst pipe or a dead hot water system can cost you a booking, having the crew a few streets away rather than a coastline away is the difference that matters.
Built for Coastal Homes and Coastal Conditions
Lancelin homes cop conditions the suburbs never see. Salt air corrodes fittings and gas componentry faster, sandy and limestone soils shift how drainage and pipework behave, and plenty of blocks run on bore or tank water rather than the mains. We install and repair with all of that in mind — choosing materials that last near the coast and understanding which systems fail early out here. It is the kind of genuine local knowledge you only get from a crew that has been working these streets and these soils for over a decade.
Plumbing and gas, one local call
North Contracting carries a plumbing licence, a gas licence and a backflow licence under one owner. That means your plumbing and gas can be looked at together — the hot water system, the gas connection, the pipework — rather than chasing two separate trades and hoping they line up. Kim quotes the job and Kim does the job. No subcontractors, no handballing, no surprise faces at the door. Just clear upfront pricing, compliant WA paperwork lodged every time, and one point of accountability from the first call to the last fitting.
Holiday Rentals and Second Homes, Handled
A big slice of Lancelin is holiday lets and weekenders, and those places have their own rhythm — guest in, guest out, and a narrow window to fix anything in between. We work to that. Blocked drains, leaking taps, a hot water system that quit mid-stay, or a full pre-season once-over before the summer rush hits — we can often slot it into the changeover so your place stays guest-ready. If you are managing a rental from Perth or interstate, having a trusted local who can just handle it takes a real weight off.
