About Fixed Today

What to expect from our plumbing team

As a family-owned Sydney plumbing business, Fixed Today turns up prepared, inspects the problem thoroughly and explains what the inspection indicates before we start any job. We’ve been serving Sydney homeowners since 2011, and Erskineville falls comfortably within our service area.

Our plumbers take part in regular on-site and off-site training and ongoing upskilling. It shapes how they assess a fault, and you notice the difference once work starts in your home.

All our staff undergo regular police checks and drug screening as part of standard employment, not a one-off step arranged before a job. That means a consistent, accountable plumber turns up at your door every visit.

Practical help for plumbing problems

We help Erskineville 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

No hot water, fluctuating temperatures, rust-coloured water or a leaking cylinder are all signs worth checking properly rather than guessing. We examine the unit, valves, controls and energy supply to see what’s going on.

Those findings help us explain practical repair and replacement options to you, including the disruption involved, your household’s needs and the price. You decide what happens next.

  • Unit valve and control checks
  • Water temperature and pressure testing
  • Repair or replacement guidance
  • Advice matched to system type

Blocked Drain Clearing
Blocked Drain Clearing

Blocked Drain Clearing

One slow drain could mean a local blockage. When several drains gurgle or overflow together, that may indicate a restriction further along. We check the affected drains, available entry points and pipe condition to understand the situation.

From there we can suggest a suitable clearing approach or a CCTV inspection. We explain the findings, the proposed work and the price, and wait for your go-ahead before starting.

  • Drain symptoms and access assessed
  • Clearing options based on findings
  • CCTV inspection if useful
  • Repair choices for damaged pipework

Leak Detection and Pipe Repairs

Urgent

Leak Detection and Pipe Repairs

Damp plaster, bubbling paint, unexplained staining or a jump in water use can point to a hidden leak. We use diagnostic equipment to help indicate the likely source before opening any wall, ceiling or floor.

Once we have a clearer idea of where the leak may be, we explain the repair needed and discuss practical access options with you.

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

Gas Fitting and Repairs

Gas Fitting and Repairs

Our licensed gas fitters investigate gas leaks, appliance faults and supply problems around the home. If you suspect gas, leave the area, avoid switches and flames, then contact us from somewhere safe.

We outline the test results, proposed work and price before seeking approval. After the approved work is completed and tested, we provide compliance paperwork where required.

  • Gas leak and pressure checks
  • Repair and installation options
  • Appliance and supply connections
  • Any required compliance records

General Plumbing Repairs

Dripping taps, running toilets, low pressure, noisy pipes and worn fixtures are common issues, but the plumbing behind each one still needs checking properly before any work starts. We inspect the affected system and explain the options and price beforehand.

After finishing the repair, we test it and explain the outcome to you clearly, so you know what was done.

  • Tap and toilet fault checks
  • Water pressure and pipe noise assessment
  • Fixture repair and replacement options
  • Maintenance advice where useful

Toilet Repairs
Toilet Repairs

Toilet Repairs

A running toilet, a base leak, a weak flush or repeat blockages can all share different causes worth checking properly. We inspect the cistern, pan, seals, supply line and drain connection.

After checking these parts, we explain what we found and what repair is needed, along with the price. We wait for your go-ahead before starting any work at all.

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

Leaking Tap and Fixture Repairs

Leaking Tap and Fixture Repairs

When a tap drips, feels stiff or leaks at the base, a worn washer, cartridge or seal is often the likely cause. Sometimes the whole fixture needs replacing instead.

We check the tap and its connections, then explain what our inspection suggests about the part involved. We give you a price for repair or replacement, check for nearby water damage, and test the tap once finished.

  • Leaking tap and connection checks
  • Internal part replacement options
  • Nearby water damage assessed
  • Tap operation tested after repair

Before vs After

How a good diagnosis shapes the repair

We look at what’s likely causing the issue before recommending a repair. A ceiling mark, for instance, could trace to a pipe, fitting, seal or waterproofed surface, helping guide the plumbing work.

Before

The moisture source is still unclear

  • The visible symptom has no confirmed source
  • A repair is chosen before the cause is checked
  • Access or price changes are left unexplained
  • The same symptom returns without further testing
  • There is no clear handover record
Licensed Fixed Today plumber giving a thumbs up

After

Likely source explained, plumbing repair tested

  • The fault is checked with a suitable diagnostic method
  • The likely cause and repair options are explained
  • The scope and price are approved before paid work
  • The result is tested before handover
  • Relevant invoice, warranty and compliance records are supplied

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.

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.

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
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
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.

What we check

Similar signs do not prove the same cause

Inside a drain, grease, roots and damaged pipework can restrict flow in different ways. Damp surfaces sit in one possible-cause group; hot-water faults sit in another. We explain whether inspection points to private pipework or why 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.

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

Why household faults may return

We consider when the fault started, previous repairs and which fixtures are affected before choosing focused tests. We then explain what the findings indicate about the leak, blockage or hot-water problem.

Fault patterns we assess

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.
