Jieye, owner & licensed plumber at Hills Plumbing & Gas

Hi, I'm Jieye.

I started Hills Plumbing & Gas in 2022, after 13+ years on the tools, because I wanted to run things differently, same plumber on the phone, same plumber doing the work, no subbing out, no surprises on the invoice. I'm a QBCC licensed plumber and a licensed gas fitter, and I've got the insurance and statutory cover to back every job up.

The work I love most is bathroom renovations and new builds, the kind of jobs where the rough-in has to be set out right so the fit-off lands clean, pressures are tested at 1,000 kPa, and the customer ends up with something they want to show their mates. But the bread-and-butter is also blocked drains, burst pipes at 2am, hot water systems that died in winter, and gas cooktop installs for new kitchens. I've seen most of it. On gas jobs I issue the compliance certificate myself, because that is the law in Queensland and because I signed off on the work.

Everything you read on this site, the blog posts, the suburb pages, the question library, I wrote based on actual jobs I've done across the Gold Coast. If it's on the site, I stand behind it.

The pricing pages and question guides exist because it is far too hard for Gold Coast homeowners to get a straight answer about what plumbing actually costs. Most trade websites hide prices until you are already committed. I would rather publish real ranges, explain what pushes a job to the top or bottom of the range, and let you make your own call. If a guide here shows a price range, it is a genuine guide to what jobs like yours typically cost, and the exact fixed price you approve before we start is the price you pay.
