From keeping homes and businesses running to helping North Queensland prepare for the unexpected, DRM Plumbing FNQ is delivering essential plumbing and gas services across the region, backed by more than 27 years of industry experience.

‍

Locally operated by Damon and Renee McLeod, DRM Plumbing FNQ provides a comprehensive range of services covering plumbing, drainage, roofing, maintenance and gasfitting, as well as specialised products designed to meet the needs of homes, businesses and industry.

‍

With Damon a fully licensed plumber and QBCC licensee across plumbing, drainage and gasfitting, customers can access experienced, qualified service for projects big and small. From new roofing installations and full roof replacements to repairs and ongoing maintenance, the team can assist with roof screws, gutters, downpipes, flashings and rainwater tanks.

‍

Drainage is another important part of the business, with services covering the pipes, traps, vents and fittings that safely carry wastewater and sewage away from properties to sewer or septic systems. DRM also undertakes septic tank and trench work, along with clearing stubborn blockages caused by tree roots and other obstructions using its jet rodding machine.

The business can also help with hot water unit repairs and replacements, as well as gas plumbing for stoves, ovens and hot water systems.

‍

Beyond its everyday plumbing services, DRM Plumbing FNQ is the distributor for Dam Easy Flood Barriers across North and Far North Queensland. Designed as a practical flood protection solution, the barriers offer property owners another option when preparing for the region’s recurring natural disasters.

‍

DRM is also a SUPAGAS dealer and agent, supplying LPG alongside industrial, medical, specialty and helium gases through one of Australia’s leading gas suppliers.

While the range of services is extensive, Damon and Renee are equally focused on building something that contributes to the region’s future.

‍

DRM Plumbing FNQ proudly supports the next generation of tradespeople, employing both a full-time apprentice and a school-based apprentice. Providing young local people with hands-on experience, guidance and opportunities to develop their skills is an important part of the business, helping build pathways into a rewarding career in the plumbing trade.

‍

That commitment extends beyond the workplace, with DRM regularly supporting local sporting clubs, charity events and youth development programs. Its community involvement reflects a business that values relationships and recognises the importance of giving back to the people and organisations that make the region strong.

‍

For Damon and Renee, running a local business means being there when the community needs them, creating opportunities for young people and supporting the clubs, events and organisations that bring the region together. It is a commitment they continue to put into practice through DRM Plumbing FNQ, every day.
