Connekt Plumbing began in Adelaide when founder Matt Kirkbride, drawing on his decades of plumbing experience and years in commercial construction management, decided to establish a business tailored to larger-scale, technically demanding projects. After working as a tradesman, then advancing into project management for a tier-one commercial contractor, Matt identified gaps in how complex plumbing assignments were executed locally. “I saw some opportunities in the market that I thought weren’t getting executed well,” he explains. Armed with his industry experience and expertise, Matt formed Connekt Plumbing to fill that gap in 2015. In the years since, the company has grown at a steady pace. Early on, Matt recognized that technology would be pivotal for tackling sophisticated assignments. Connekt invested time, energy, and funds into developing an in-house design department with robust 3D modeling capabilities. “Investing in technology isn’t just about staying current; it’s about ensuring we can meet—and exceed—the demands of technically sophisticated projects,” he notes. This focus enables the team to anticipate clashes, streamline coordination with other trades, and minimize rework. As a result, on-site crews receive precise plans, helping projects stay on schedule and within budget. Operating primarily within South Australia, Connekt Plumbing’s scope spans from midsize commercial builds to multi-million-dollar contracts. The company’s largest completed assignment to date is the Morialta Secondary College project in Adelaide’s eastern suburbs: THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE AUSTRALIA
