Do you charge a call-out fee in Balgowlah Heights?
Many service areas have no call-out fee (check specific suburb pages). If you are booking in Balgowlah Heights, it is best to confirm whether a call-out fee applies at the time of booking, because it can vary by area and job type. Once onsite, pricing is fixed upfront by the job, not by the hour.
How do you price plumbing work in Balgowlah Heights?
Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour). The plumber confirms the scope onsite first, then provides a fixed-fee quote with no hidden fees before work starts. Price can change if the scope changes, for example due to access issues or extra parts, but any change is explained and confirmed before proceeding.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured?
Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and all attending technicians are licensed plumbers in NSW. The business is fully insured (Public Liability and Workers Compensation). In plain English, Public Liability helps if accidental property damage occurs during work, and Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries on the job.
What is included in your flat-rate quote?
A fixed-price quote is provided once the plumber has confirmed the scope onsite, including what work will be completed and what materials are required. The Fixed Price Guarantee means the price quoted is the price paid for the agreed scope. If inspection shows additional faults, options are explained and a new fixed price is provided before extra work starts.
Can you clear blocked drains in Balgowlah Heights?
Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Balgowlah Heights using diagnostic tools such as CCTV inspection equipment to locate the cause, then clearing methods such as high-pressure water jetting. This usually restores flow and helps confirm why the blockage occurred. If the camera reveals a damaged pipe, repair options are explained and quoted once scope is confirmed.
Do you install and repair hot water systems in Balgowlah Heights?
Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing installs, repairs, and maintains hot water service systems in Balgowlah Heights, including gas, electric, and solar units. The plumber will first confirm the system type and the fault, then provide fixed, upfront pricing before work starts. If inspection shows the unit is beyond repair or needs compliance-related upgrades, the options are explained before proceeding.
Can you do gas fitting and gas leak work in Balgowlah Heights?
Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing is licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and can assist with gas leakage detection and new gas connections in Balgowlah Heights. Gas issues should be treated as urgent because they can be a safety risk. The attending technician will assess the installation, explain what is required, and provide a fixed-price quote once scope is established.
What should I do while waiting for an emergency plumber?
The safest approach is to book a licensed and insured plumbing technician and keep people away from the affected area where practical. If there is a suspected gas problem, arrange an urgent assessment and follow any safety guidance given on the phone. For active leaks or overflows, the priority is limiting property damage until the plumber arrives and can make it safe.
