Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For Bellevue Hill plumbing, a NSW-fully licensed NSW plumber is the safer option for anything beyond very minor issues because water and gas faults can cause property damage and safety risks. Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and can confirm the cause onsite. Once the scope is verified, you receive fixed upfront pricing before any work starts.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing cost in Bellevue Hill depends on what is actually found onsite, including access to the fault, 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), and a fixed-price quote is provided before we start once the scope is confirmed. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides general domestic and commercial plumbing in Bellevue Hill, plus specialist services like drain blockage unblocking and structural pipe repair, water heater installations, gas leak detection and new gas connections, and ruptured pipe repairs and water leak testing. The right solution depends on what the site assessment finds, and the fixed-price quote is provided before work starts.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, most jobs in Bellevue Hill need an onsite assessment because the cause and access are not always clear from a phone description. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the affected area, checks access, and uses diagnostic tools where required, then provides a flat-rate quote before work begins. If the issue is urgent, emergency jobs are dispatched immediately and the scope is still confirmed onsite.
What do Plumbers do?
Plumbers install, repair, and maintain water, drainage, and gas systems in homes and businesses. That includes fixtures like toilets and taps, as well as pipework, drains, hot water units, and gas connections. In NSW, the person attending should be licensed for the type of work being completed. Fixed Today Plumbing sends licensed technicians and completes work to applicable Australian Standards.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A constantly running toilet usually indicates an internal fault that needs repair to stop water waste and prevent overflow issues. The safest next step is to book a licensed and insured plumber so the cause can be confirmed and fixed properly. Fixed Today Plumbing can assess the toilet onsite in Bellevue Hill, explain what has failed, and provide fixed upfront pricing before completing the repair.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower should be assessed early because water can travel into walls and flooring before it becomes visible. Fixed Today Plumbing can inspect the shower in Bellevue Hill, identify where water is escaping, and explain the repair options. Once the scope is confirmed, a fixed-price quote is provided before work begins, and workmanship is backed by a Lifetime Labour Warranty.

Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Bellevue Hill, including using drain inspection cameras to locate the restriction and high-pressure water jetting to remove debris. This usually resolves typical blockages in accessible lines; if the camera reveals structural damage, options like repair or no-dig pipe lining are explained and quoted once scope is agreed.
