Licences, Accreditations & Credentials — Around The Clock Plumbing Melbourne

Our Licences and Accreditations

ATC Plumbing — Around The Clock Plumbing Pty Ltd — operates under all required Victorian plumbing and gas fitting licences. When you engage ATC Plumbing, you're hiring a fully licensed, insured, and accredited trade business. Here's exactly what we hold and what it means for you.

Plumbing Licence — VBA BPC #50694

Our Victorian Building Authority (VBA) plumbing licence number is BPC #50694. This licence is issued by the VBA and authorises ATC Plumbing to carry out all classes of plumbing work in Victoria, including water supply, sanitary plumbing, stormwater drainage, and gasfitting. You can verify this licence at any time on the VBA's public register at vba.vic.gov.au.

Under Victorian law, all plumbing work must be carried out by or under the direct supervision of a licensed plumber. Unlicensed plumbing work is illegal and can void your home insurance. When you call ATC Plumbing, every job is performed by or supervised by a VBA-licensed plumber — no exceptions.

Type A Gas Fitting Licence

All gas work at ATC Plumbing is carried out by Type A gas fitters — the highest classification of gas fitting licence in Victoria. Type A accreditation covers all gas appliance work including ducted heating, space heaters, hot water systems, cooktops, and gas line installation. This is the licence required to carry out gas heater safety inspections, heat exchanger testing, and appliance commissioning.

Public Liability Insurance

ATC Plumbing holds comprehensive public liability insurance. This protects you as the property owner in the event of any accidental damage or injury arising from our work on your property. We carry and maintain this insurance as a non-negotiable part of operating a professional trade business.

Certificate of Compliance

For notifiable plumbing work — which includes most significant plumbing and gas installations — ATC Plumbing issues a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) upon completion. This certificate is lodged with the VBA and provides legal documentation that the work was carried out by a licensed plumber to the required standard. You should keep this document with your property records.

Why This Matters

Hiring unlicensed plumbers — whether through cash jobs, unregistered contractors, or handymen — puts your home, your family, and your insurance at risk. Gas work carried out by unlicensed operators is particularly dangerous and is a leading cause of carbon monoxide incidents in residential properties. ATC Plumbing's licences aren't just paperwork — they're your guarantee that the work is done safely, legally, and to the standard required by Victorian law.
