Plumbing FAQ's in Cabarita
Plumbing decisions are easier when you know what will happen next. These Cabarita FAQs cover pricing, timing, safety, and what an onsite assessment involves. If your question is about urgency, call 1800 349 338 and we'll confirm whether it needs immediate dispatch or can be booked as a same-day standard job.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For plumbing, drainage, and gas work in Cabarita, it's usually safer to use a properly licensed plumber because incorrect repairs can cause leaks, water damage, or unsafe gas operation. Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting. We diagnose first, then provide a fixed-fee quote before work starts so you can make an informed decision.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing cost is based on the confirmed scope, access, 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 the fixed price is provided before work starts. No call-out fee for many service areas (check specific suburb pages), so ask us to confirm the Cabarita call-out status when booking.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides general domestic and commercial plumbing services across Cabarita and Sydney. Common work includes blocked drains, sewer repairs, drain relining, CCTV inspections, hot water installation and repairs, leaking taps, toilets, burst pipes, roof and gutter leaks, and licensed gas fitting. If the issue involves regulated work, we confirm the requirements onsite and provide compliance documentation where required.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes. An accurate quote in Cabarita usually requires an onsite assessment, because access, pipe layout, and the fault location change what's involved. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the affected area, explains what we've found, then provides a fixed-price quote before any work begins. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued, so you have time to decide once the scope is clear.
What do Plumbers do?
Plumbers install, repair, and maintain water, drainage, and related systems in kitchens, bathrooms, and external pipework. They also test systems to confirm they are working correctly and safely. In NSW, some work, especially gas fitting and certain drainage tasks, must be done by a licensed tradesperson. Fixed Today Plumbing attends Cabarita jobs with properly licensed plumbers in NSW and quotes once the the scope is confirmed.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A toilet that keeps running usually has a worn internal valve or seal, and it can waste a surprising amount of water over time. In Cabarita, Fixed Today Plumbing can inspect the cistern, confirm which component has failed, then quote and repair it. If the toilet is also slow to clear or threatens to overflow, book an urgent visit so drainage can be checked as well.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower can come from the shower head, mixer, or a connection behind the wall, and ongoing leaks can damage cabinetry, floors, or wall linings. Fixed Today Plumbing can assess the shower in Cabarita, confirm where water is escaping, and provide a fixed price quote before repairs begin. If the leak is linked to drainage or hidden pipework, we explain options once the scope is clear.
Do you service the entire Cabarita area?
Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing services Cabarita and the broader Inner West, and we cover all Sydney metropolitan regions. For emergencies, we have the Capacity to service up to a 60km radius from base hubs for emergency calls. If access needs coordination, such as strata entry or tenant scheduling, let us know when booking so we can plan the visit properly.
Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing provides drain blockage clearing in Cabarita, including CCTV inspections to locate the restriction and high-pressure jetting to remove debris where suitable. If the inspection shows the blockage is caused by damaged pipework, we explain repair options such as structural pipe repair or trenchless drain relining, then quote once the scope is established.
How fast can you come?
For Cabarita emergencies, Fixed Today Plumbing arranges immediate dispatch and allocates the nearest available licensed plumber (NSW) from our Sydney dispatch points. For non-urgent work, same-day service is available for standard plumbing and gas enquiries. We provide clear arrival communication, including ETA updates where possible, but timing can still vary with traffic, current bookings, and property access.
