• New home plumbing and drainage


• Residential construction and renovations

  About Slade Plumbing

  
  

  Slade Plumbing is a Newcastle-based plumbing company established in 1985, with a long history across the Newcastle and Hunter Region.

  
  

  The business is currently transitioning its maintenance division, Plumbers eXpress, to new ownership so that Slade Plumbing can concentrate on its growing residential construction, subdivision and civil project work.

  
  

  We have substantial ongoing work already secured and are looking to build a small, capable construction team around people who take pride in their work and can be trusted to get the job done.
