Residential plumbing support when needed

We help Birchgrove homeowners with general plumbing, hot water, blocked drains, leaks, gas work and urgent faults. Tell us what stopped working and where it appeared. Keep clear of flooding or sewage; if gas may be present, leave the area, avoid switches and flames, then call us from somewhere safe.

Hot Water Repairs and Replacements
Hot Water Repairs and Replacements

Hot Water Repairs and Replacements

We start by checking the unit, valves, controls and energy supply when your hot water cuts out, fluctuates, discolours or escapes the cylinder.

Our findings shape the repair and replacement options we discuss with you. We explain the likely disruption, household considerations and price, then leave the choice with you.

  • Hot water fault assessment
  • Temperature and pressure checks
  • Repair and replacement options
  • System advice for your household

Blocked Drain Clearing
Blocked Drain Clearing

Blocked Drain Clearing

When one fixture drains slowly, the obstruction may be close by. If several drains gurgle, back up or overflow, the restriction may sit further along the pipework, so we assess the affected points and available access.

The inspection guides whether clearing work or a CCTV check is appropriate. We take you through the proposal and price before you choose whether to proceed.

  • Slow drain and overflow assessment
  • Suitable clearing methods explained
  • Camera inspection when warranted
  • Pipework repair options discussed

Leak Detection and Pipe Repairs

Stains, damp plaster, lifting paint or water use that has jumped without explanation may signal a concealed leak. We test the affected area and accessible services to narrow down the likely source.

The results also indicate practical ways to reach the fault. We explain what each access and repair option involves, including the proposed work and price, before you decide.

  • Visible signs and pipework checks
  • Likely leak area narrowed down
  • Access and repair options explained
  • Completed plumbing repair tested

Gas Fitting and Repairs

Where gas could be present, leave the area without operating switches or using flames, and call us once you are safely away. Our licensed gas fitters assess leaks, appliance faults and supply concerns.

We explain the test findings, proposed work and price before seeking your approval. After the approved gas work is completed and tested, we provide any required compliance documents that apply to the finished job.

General Plumbing Repairs

A dripping tap, running toilet, noisy pipe or pressure change may come from several parts of your plumbing. We assess the affected fixture, nearby connections and the symptoms you have noticed.

Toilet Repairs

When a toilet runs on, leaks near the floor, flushes weakly or blocks again, we first note exactly how it is behaving. Our inspection covers how the cistern fills, the pan and seals, the incoming supply and the drain connection.

Those checks indicate which repair may be suitable. We explain our findings, the proposed work and its price, then wait for your approval before starting.

  • Running toilet and flush checks
  • Cistern valve and seal replacement
  • Pan leak and resealing options
  • Recurring blockage investigation

Leaking Tap and Fixture Repairs

Drips, stiffness or moisture around a tap can come from its washer, cartridge, seal, fixture or an accessible connection. We inspect those parts and check the nearby area for signs of water damage.

The assessment may indicate which component has failed. We outline repair and replacement choices with the price, leave the decision to you, then test the completed repair under normal use.

  • Dripping and stiff tap assessment
  • Tap washer and cartridge repairs
  • Fixture and connection checks

Luke Soo Google

Joe and Kurtis attended within hours of an urgent call to Fixed Today Plumbing for help in fixing a fast leaking hot water tap at my home. The urgent leak, and a two other less urgent tap repairs were performed promptly and professionally. I have now found a plumber-of-choice, and can highly recommend Fixed Today Plumbing’s services.

Hot Water
Elodie Watts Google

I needed a gas hot water system ASAP.... Joe was excellent... Quick to reply with very reasonable quote. Job was completed promptly and was very tidy on completion! Would totally recommend this business and definitely will use again in the future.

Gas Fitting
Bianca McConnell Google

We had two separate issues, burst pipe I the laundry and the hot water system needed replacement. The team came in same day and fixed the leak and replaced the hot water system. Very professional, friendly, clean and efficient. I would recommend Fixed Today to all my friends.

Hot Water
Jennifer Young Google

Required an emergency call as hot water system had not heated. Technician arrived within the hour and found that the relay switch on the electrical board was faulty. Joe contacted the energy supplier and arranged replacement; this was attended on the same day - Sunday. Great service.

Hot Water
Lyndsay Cannell Google

Unfortunately we had a poor experience of the services of Fixed Today, today. We called seeking support to diagnose a problem with our leaking hot water system. The plumber that came to our home was quick to diagnose the system as needing a complete replacement, and quoted us a steep $1850. Given the significant price, we sought a second opinion from another local Plumbing Service.…

Hot Water
Chuncho Google

Fixed Today was the closest plumbing company to me here in Sydney, and they did a great job with our blocked drains. Affordable, and honest! I’ll use them again for future plumbing. I highly recommend them.

What we check

Similar plumbing signs, different possible causes

Grease, roots or damaged pipework can sit behind a slow drain. Damp can involve failed seals or a hidden leak, whereas hot-water faults may involve valves, controls or the system. We explain whether private pipework applies or Sydney Water may need to investigate its public wastewater network.

  • Mature street trees

    Decades-old plane and fig roots find every hairline gap in the sewer line.

  • Pre-1990s housing stock

    Original copper and earthenware drainage is reaching end of service life.

  • Reactive clay soil

    Sydney clay expands and contracts with the wet/dry cycle, stressing rigid pipework.

  • Heavy summer downpours

    Stormwater systems sized for 1970s rainfall struggle with modern intensities.

Before the visit

Help us prepare for your visit

Describe the change and the place where you first saw it. Mention any flooding or sewage, then separately say whether you suspect a gas leak. Add safe photos, access notes and your preferred contact so we can assess urgency and prepare; the plumber will still inspect the fault on site.

Why licensing matters

Licensed plumber vs. unlicensed worker

Plumbing work in NSW must be carried out by a licensed plumber. It is not just a formality, licensing protects your home, your insurance, and your right to recourse if something goes wrong.

Licensed plumber

What you get

  • Work is insured and meets the National Plumbing Code
  • Compliance Certificate issued for every job
  • Home insurance and warranty stay valid
  • Statutory warranty backed by NSW Fair Trading
  • Clear path to dispute resolution if needed
Unlicensed worker

What you risk

  • Work may breach the NSW Plumbing and Drainage Act
  • No Compliance Certificate: issues at resale
  • Home insurance claims commonly denied
  • No statutory warranty on the work performed
  • Limited recourse: Fair Trading cannot assist
Our NSW Plumbing Licence 236784C Fixed Today Plumbing Pty Ltd

Most home insurance policies will not pay out for damage caused by unlicensed plumbing work. A burst hot water unit from a non-compliant install can void cover on the entire claim, often tens of thousands of dollars.

When the problem keeps coming back

How repeat plumbing faults develop

When plumbing trouble comes back, its pattern matters. We review the timing, earlier repair work and affected fixtures, choose tests aimed at those details, then explain what the results may indicate.

Faults seen more often

Tree-root blocked drains

Mature street trees send fine roots through old earthenware joints. By the time the drain backs up, the line is often partially collapsed.

Burst copper under slab

Pre-1990s homes here often have copper pipe run under the slab. Pinhole leaks become full bursts once the pipe wall thins through.

Failed electric hot water units

Replacement is cheaper than emergency repair on units past 10 years. We carry common sizes on the truck for same-day swap-outs.

Stormwater overflow at the boundary

Clay tiles laid 50+ years ago weren’t built for today’s roof areas. We jet, camera, and reline rather than dig up your front yard.

Leaking shower bases

Bathroom tiles look fine until the cornice underneath swells. Most leaks here trace back to a hairline crack in the waterproofing membrane.

Gas appliance shutdowns

Older gas fittings drop pressure as seals harden. We carry licensed gas testers and can pressure-test the line on the same visit.
