Plumbing FAQ's in Bardwell Park
These are practical answers to common questions from Bardwell Park locals about emergency plumbing, pricing, and what happens on the day. If your situation is urgent, you do not need to diagnose it first, describing what you can see and hear is usually enough for us to book the right licensed technician and confirm the next step onsite.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For emergencies and anything involving gas, drainage, or concealed pipework, a licensed plumbing technician is the safer option in Bardwell Park. DIY work can create safety risks and can make the final repair more complicated if fittings are damaged or incorrectly installed. Fixed Today Plumbing sends licensed plumbers, and the job is assessed properly before a fixed-price quote is provided.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing cost depends on the scope of work, access to the problem area, the parts required, and whether the job is urgent or after-hours. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you receive a fixed-price quote once the problem is assessed onsite. No hidden costs; quotes are valid for one month from the date issued.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing delivers general domestic and commercial plumbing services for Bardwell Park, including blocked drains, sewer repairs, pipe relining, hot water installation and repairs, leaking taps, gutter and roof leaks, broken pipes, leak identification, toilet repairs, and licensed gas fitting. If the issue turns out to be larger than first described, the options are explained and quoted once scope is confirmed.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, jobs in the 2207 postcode are personally assessed onsite because accurate quoting depends on what is found in the pipework, fixtures, and access points. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the affected area and the likely cause first, then provides a fixed-price quote before work begins. This reduces the chance of pricing surprises or incomplete repairs.
What do Plumbers do?
Plumbers install, repair, and maintain water, drainage, and related systems in homes and businesses. In an emergency context, the work is usually about stopping leaks, restoring flow, or making a system safe before damage spreads. In NSW, regulated plumbing and gas work must be carried out by licensed tradespeople, and it is typically tested and verified before sign-off.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A running toilet is usually caused by a faulty inlet valve, a worn seal, or a flush mechanism that is no longer seating properly. Because the parts and cistern designs vary, the most direct way to avoid ongoing water waste is to book a toilet repair so the correct components can be identified and replaced. Fixed Today Plumbing provides fixed-price quotes once the fault is confirmed.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower can be caused by the fittings, the plumbing behind the wall, or the waste connection, and the right fix depends on where the water is escaping. If water is running outside the wet area or you can see moisture damage, book a plumber promptly to limit damage. After inspection, Fixed Today Plumbing provides a fixed-price quote before repairs proceed.

Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing provides blocked drain clearing and sewer repairs for Bardwell Park. Clearing usually starts with confirming the blockage location and cause, often using a CCTV drain camera in accessible lines, then removing the obstruction with the least disruptive method. If inspection shows structural pipe damage, repair options such as relining are explained and quoted once scope is established.
