About Fixed Today

What to expect from our trained plumbers

Fixed Today is a family-owned plumbing business that has served Sydney homeowners since 2011, and Petersham is within our service area. We inspect the plumbing involved and explain what the findings indicate. We then set out the proposed repair scope and price before asking whether you want the work to go ahead.

Every plumber we hire is licensed, with regular on-site and off-site training, ongoing upskilling, and regular police checks and drug screening built into our employment standards.

That preparation shapes how we protect nearby surfaces, manage access and explain our findings while working in your home. After you approve the proposed scope and price, we carry out and test the agreed plumbing repair. Before leaving, we tidy the work area and explain the finished result.

Hot Water Repairs and Replacements

Cold taps running warm, changing temperatures, rusty water, unusual noise or moisture around the unit can have different hot water causes. We check the unit, valves, controls and available energy connection, using the results to explain what they suggest.

From there, we discuss practical repair and replacement paths, likely household disruption, your hot-water needs and the price. You choose whether one of the quoted options should proceed.

  • 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

A single fixture draining slowly can differ from several drains that gurgle, back up or overflow together. Our assessment covers the affected fixtures, access points and safely accessible pipework.

We use those observations to discuss an appropriate drain-clearing approach or whether CCTV inspection may help. You receive the proposed scope and price before deciding whether the work goes ahead.

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

How diagnosis shapes the repair proposal

Ceiling discolouration may come from pipework, a fixture seal or failed waterproofing. We trace where the moisture likely begins, then explain the appropriate plumbing repair or next trade. Only after approval do we carry out and test the agreed plumbing portion.

A visible stain with no confirmed source

  • 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

  • The fault is checked with a suitable diagnostic method
  • The likely cause and repair options are explained

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.

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.

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.

Blocked Drains
4.9 761 customer reviews
What we check

One symptom may come from several causes

A slow drain may involve grease, roots or damaged pipes. Damp patches can arise from plumbing, seals or waterproofing; hot-water problems may involve the unit, valves or controls. Once we assess private pipework, we explain whether 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 fault, where it shows and when it began. Report flooding or sewage and suspected gas separately, then include photos only when safe, useful access details and your best contact. We can assess urgency and prepare, while our plumber still checks 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 305428C PLATINUM HOT WATER AND PLUMBING PTY LIMITED

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

Recurring plumbing trouble at home

For a recurring blockage, leak or hot water issue, we review when it happens, earlier repairs and affected fixtures. That context helps us choose focused tests, explain the findings and outline a practical proposal.

Recurring fault signs

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.
