ABOUT US

Although only recently becoming a Company, Snowfield Gas & Plumbing has been a business entity in the Snowy Mountains for many years.

Rob Helsby (Director) has a family history in plumbing originating from his grandfather forming a partnership in the central business district of Sydney in the early 1900's. His grandfather then formed a Company with his 3 sons prior to World War II to be known as T Helsby & Sons Pty Ltd, a firm that is still trading today although not owned by any Helsby family members.

Rob underwent his apprenticeship during the late 1960's and early 70's where upon completion of his trades course, joined the LHO group of hydraulic consultants and was involved in plumbing design and planning of hospitals, schools and multi storey buildings.

After a brief visit to the snowy mountains area and a season working at Thredbo, decided to relocate to the area and in 1982 began plumbing as a sole trader within the snowy mountains. As the workload expanded a partnership was formed with another local plumber (R&D Plumbing). It wasn't long before the partnership was providing their service to many corporate, commercial and residential clients.

After being involved with R&D Plumbing for 10 years Rob and his partner Annie decided to branch out, and built a commercial rental property at Leesville Industrial Estate. Snowfield Gas & Plumbing was formed in July 1996. Once again the workload increased and soon Rob found he needed employees, now employing 2 apprentices and 1 fully qualified plumber.
