Copper Press vs Compression Fittings
If you've been in the trade for more than a few years, you've used both. But the question of which fitting to reach for — copper press or compression — still trips up apprentices and divides experienced plumbers on tight jobs. With the rise of press technology and the increasing availability of affordable press tools, many Australian plumbers are expanding their use of press fittings beyond new builds. At the same time, compression fittings remain the go-to for a huge range of repair and maintenance scenarios. At Beyond Plumbing Supplies, our team has over 60 years of combined trade experience and we stock both fitting types across our full range. This guide cuts through the noise to give you a clear, practical answer — backed by Australian Standards and real job scenarios.
Setting Up a Water Filtration System: What Plumbers Need to Know
Water filtration is one of the fastest-growing areas of residential and light commercial plumbing in Australia. With increasing consumer awareness around water quality — and more builders and homeowners specifying filtration at the point of sale — licensed plumbers are being called on to install and commission these systems more than ever.
This guide covers everything you need to know: system types, correct installation procedure, compliance considerations, and the components you'll need on-hand. If you're looking to stock up, our filtration range includes connection kits, filter housings, and fittings at trade prices.
Flexible Hose Failures: What Causes Them and How to Prevent Them
Flexible hose failures are one of the most costly and preventable causes of water damage in Australian homes. A single braided hose failure can release hundreds of litres of water per hour — and if it happens while the homeowner is away, the damage can run into tens of thousands of dollars. For licensed plumbers, understanding why hoses fail, when to replace them, and how to specify the right product is both a duty of care and a matter of professional liability.
This guide covers the common causes of flexible hose failure, the Australian standards that apply, replacement intervals, and how to select quality flexible hoses that protect your clients and your license.
What Every Licenced Plumber Should Know Before Ordering Trade Supplies Online
You're on the tools. Time is money. The last thing you need is a week-long wait on a hot water spare or a delivery that shows up missing half the job. Yet choosing the wrong online trade supplier is exactly how that happens — and it happens more than it should.
This guide breaks down what separates a reliable trade supplier from a time-wasting one, what to look for in an online plumbing supplies store, and how the right supplier keeps your jobs running on schedule and on budget.
Pipe Repair on Emergency Callouts: Products That Get You Out Fast
Emergency callouts don't wait for business hours. A burst pipe, a failed coupling, or a cracked fitting can happen at 10pm on a Friday — and the difference between a quick fix and a hours-long job often comes down to what you're carrying in your van.
This guide covers the pipe repair products every licensed plumber should have stocked for reactive jobs, how to use them effectively, and where to get them without waiting on merchant lead times.
Trade Account Pricing for Plumbers - Save on Bulk Supplies
If you're still paying retail prices for the copper press fittings, tapware and consumables your business goes through every week, you're leaving money on the table on every single job. For plumbing business owners and site managers running multiple jobs a week, that gap between retail and trade pricing doesn't just add up — it compounds, month after month, project after project.
A trade account is one of the simplest changes a plumbing business can make to protect its margins, and it costs nothing to set up. Here's exactly how the savings work, where they show up, and why it matters more the bigger your business gets.
