What is Strata Plumbing?
Strata plumbing is the network of pipes and fixtures that supply water and gas and enable drainage from an apartment building or row of townhouses, all of which are covered by a strata title. It includes the internal plumbing within individual units as well as the main distribution of water pipes that serve the title buildings.
Typically, in a strata scheme, the pipework is shared by all the apartments, townhouses and common areas. While plumbing problems inside homes is typically the owner responsibility, the strata management team will take care of any issues outside and in common areas.
An experienced strata plumbing service like GSM Plumbing understands the complexities of working on properties with common plumbing fixtures and can take care of the problem without hassle.

Why Strata Managers Need Strata Plumbers
Since all common areas are managed by the owners' corporation, it makes sense to hire a strata plumber because it saves you from the burden of collaborating with multiple plumbers for different jobs. Some of the benefits of engaging an experienced strata plumber for your building's plumbing issue include –
Who Handles Plumbing Repairs in a Strata Title?
Many homeowners of strata apartments have this question because there are a few grey areas and the lines can get blurred when it comes to strata services. So we'll try and break it down for you.
Let's say a pipe has burst inside an apartment or there is excess garage water. This plumbing issue will most likely be the responsibility of the property owner. If the pipe bursts on common property like a boundary wall, then the owners' corporation is responsible for getting it fixed. If a pipe bursts under a property, it will likely be the strata management responsibility unless the owner or tenant has caused the issue. An example of an owner or tenant-caused issue could be new flooring damaging pipes underneath or clogging the toilet and floor drain with items that don't pass through pipes easily.
For issues like kitchen and bathroom tap leaks in an apartment or townhouse, owners are usually responsible for repairs. Typically, any issue on common property is covered by strata but anything inside a home, unless the issue started outside, will be the apartment owner's responsibility.
Strata schemes work differently to individual properties. If in doubt, owners should talk to their strata manager so they can mutually decide how to proceed with a particular plumbing service if needed. For major damage, owners may also be able to claim from insurance companies depending on their policies and the cause of the issue.
For all your strata plumbing services needs, GSM Plumbing has you covered.
