About Us

It's All In The Difference

For more than 20 years, Blacksoil Plumbing & Drains has been the plumber that homeowners and business owners across the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Ipswich region turn to, including the local Blacksoil community. From blocked drains and stormwater drainage through to pipe relining, CCTV drain inspections and everyday tap repairs, our licensed plumbers bring genuine hands-on experience to every job we take on. We've grown from a small local outfit into a name locals trust, without ever losing the personal service that got us started.

What sets us apart isn't the size of our van fleet, it's how we treat your property. Our upfront fixed pricing means you'll never be caught out by a hidden fee, and our Tidy Tradie guarantee ensures we leave your home or business exactly as clean as we found it. Backed by a lifetime workmanship guarantee, every repair, installation or emergency callout gets the same care and attention, whether it's a dripping tap or a full sewer line repair.

    A Message From Our Founder

    Built On Honest Work And Local Trust

    Sam Proctor

    Sam Proctor

    Founder

    I started Blacksoil Plumbing & Drains with a simple idea in mind: treat every customer's home the way you'd want your own treated. Twenty years on, that same idea guides every job we take on, whether it's a straightforward washer replacement or a full pipe relining project.

    Watching this business grow across Ipswich, Brisbane and the Gold Coast has been rewarding, but what matters most to me is that we've kept our word to every customer along the way. Fixed pricing, tidy worksites and a genuine lifetime workmanship guarantee aren't just talking points, they're how we operate every single day.
