FOREST FANS is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Calling All Brissy Plumbers

Hi everyone, is there anyone out there that knows where to get hold of the bible which explains the plumbing regs for Oz?

Also, looked into rates for plumbers out there, bit shocked to find that rates are quite low compared with UK, expecting about $40,000 pa average wage to start rising to approx. $50,000 when got to grips with Oz ways of working - can anyone say whether this is about right - or recommend any companies with good reputations in the Brisbane area/outer suberbs?

Cheers all

Pretty sure you can find it to buy on this website. You just need to know what the regs are actually called.

I got the electrical wiring regs here but it cost me. About $107 of which one third was posting and packing from Oz to Uk.

I saw some charge-out rates for plumbers back in 2000;
$65 - $75 ph.

What part of Brisbane are looking at moving to ?

Totally off topic

But it would be good to have other Reds fans in Brisbane as I intend to move out their at the end of the year.

Hope it goes well
