10+ Years’ Experience
Our Story
Performax Plumbing & Gas is a family-run business led by Epi Satavu, a licensed plumber and gasfitter with 10 years in the trade. He looks after homes across Atwell, Cockburn Central and the suburbs south to Mandurah. As a husband and dad of two, he treats every home he works in the way he’d want his own family’s home treated.
Epi built Performax on honest communication, professional workmanship and a strong focus on safety. He shows you what he’s found and talks you through the fix before any work starts, so there are no surprises. His goal is to be the plumber you call again, and the one you recommend to friends and family.
Holding a plumbing contractor’s licence and a gasfitting permit, both on the WA licence register, means one tradesperson can look after the water side and the gas side of the same job. His specialist kit, from a CCTV drain camera and jetter to thermal imaging and acoustic leak detection, finds the real cause instead of patching over it.
What We Do
Looking for a plumber in Atwell who can handle the whole job? Epi covers drains, leaks, hot water and gas, with drainage and leak detection his specialist work, and every quote is free. He also takes on civil plumbing and pressure testing for larger projects.

Hidden water leaks found with thermal imaging, an acoustic leak detector and a moisture meter. The aim is to pinpoint the source with as little damage to walls, floors and gardens as possible. Epi then repairs the leak, and photos and a written report are ready for insurers and property managers.

Burst pipes, major leaks, overflowing toilets and blocked drains that can’t wait for next week. Call Epi, explain what’s happening and he’ll talk you through what to do next. If water is pouring out, turn it off at the meter first. Emergency call-outs cover Atwell and the suburbs south to Mandurah.

No hot water, a leaking tank or a dripping relief valve? Epi repairs gas storage and continuous flow hot water systems and works mostly with Rheem. He finds the fault, explains what it will take to fix and gives you a free quote before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

When a gas hot water system is past repair, Epi replaces it with the right unit for the home, storage or continuous flow. He talks you through the options that suit your household, the space and your budget before anything is ordered. New systems are backed by the manufacturer’s warranty.

Dripping taps, running toilets and tired old showers fixed or replaced. Epi repairs and installs taps, mixers, toilets, showers and vanities, with new pipework where the job needs it. Every job starts with a free quote and comes with a 12 month guarantee, so you know exactly where you stand.

Blocked toilets, kitchen sinks, showers and stormwater drains cleared properly, not just pushed further down the line. A CCTV drain camera shows what is causing the blockage, from tree roots to a damaged pipe or build-up. Then the high pressure drain jetter clears it, so it doesn’t keep coming back.

The wider drainage work behind a healthy system: CCTV drain camera inspections, hydro jetting, tree root removal and stormwater drains. Epi uses the camera to show you what is inside the pipe, then puts the right fix in the right place. It suits drains that keep blocking and yards where roots are a known problem.

Choosing a new hot water system? Epi supplies and fits gas storage and continuous flow systems and works mostly with Rheem. He helps you pick the size and type that suits your household, then installs it and tests it before he leaves. New systems are backed by the manufacturer’s warranty.

New gas lines, alterations and connections around the home and yard, for natural gas and LPG. Epi also tracks down gas leaks and services gas heaters so they are safe before winter. Every connection is tested before he leaves, so the work is safe to use from the very first day.

Gas cooktops, ovens and other gas appliances installed and connected properly. Epi checks the gas supply, fits the appliance and tests every joint before he leaves, so it is safe to use straight away. A free quote comes first, so you know exactly what the job involves before it starts.

That’s the aim. Epi uses thermal imaging, an acoustic leak detector and a moisture meter to pinpoint the source, so only the area around the leak needs opening up where possible.
Repeat blockages usually come from tree roots, a damaged pipe or build-up inside the line. A CCTV drain camera shows which one it is, so the fix deals with the cause and not just the symptom.
Yes. For burst pipes, major leaks, overflowing toilets and blocked drains, call Epi straight away and explain what’s happening.
