Plumbing FAQ's in Cammeray
Plumbing problems are disruptive, and it is hard to make decisions when you do not know the cause or the cost. These FAQs explain what locals in Cammeray typically ask about emergencies, pricing, arrival, and what happens on the first visit. If your question is not covered, you can call and describe what is happening and we will help you book the right plumber.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For plumbing and gas issues in Cammeray, a licensed professional is usually the safest option because poor repairs can cause leaks, water damage, or safety risks. Fixed Today Plumbing is duly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and all attending technicians are fully licensed plumbers in NSW. If the problem is urgent, the safest next step is booking an assessment rather than experimenting.
How much does plumbing cost in Cammeray?
Plumbing cost in Cammeray depends on the confirmed scope, access to the pipework, parts required, and whether the job is after-hours or urgent. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you receive a fixed-price quote before we start. If the inspection finds extra issues, options are explained and re-quoted once scope is confirmed.
What type of plumbing work can you help with in Cammeray?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides general domestic and commercial plumbing services across Cammeray and Sydney, including blocked drains, sewer repairs, drain relining, CCTV inspections, hot water work, gas fitting, leak identification, leaking taps, toilet repairs, and roof & gutter leaks. The exact approach depends on access and what the onsite assessment finds, which is confirmed before quoting.
Do you come to our house in Cammeray to quote?
Yes, Cammeray jobs are assessed onsite so the plumber can confirm the fault, access, and what is needed to repair it safely. Fixed Today Plumbing provides a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before work starts, based on confirmed scope. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued, which helps if you need to review the quote with a landlord or strata.
What do plumbers do in an emergency callout?
An emergency plumbing callout focuses on stopping damage and making the situation safe, then confirming the cause. Fixed Today Plumbing attends emergencies with immediate dispatch, and the plumber explains what has failed and what needs to be done before any work starts. Where testing is relevant, the result is verified before leaving so the system is working as expected.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A running toilet is usually caused by a worn inlet valve, a faulty flush valve, or a seal issue, and it can waste a lot of water. The simplest next step is booking a toilet repair so the cause can be confirmed and fixed correctly. If the toilet is overflowing or leaking onto the floor, treat it as urgent and arrange immediate help.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A shower leak often comes from the tap set, shower outlet, or pipework behind the wall, and it can damage cabinetry and plaster before it is obvious. The safest approach is to book a plumber to confirm the source and provide a fixed-price quote once the scope is clear. If water is escaping into adjoining rooms or ceilings, it should be treated as urgent.
Do you service the entire Cammeray area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Cammeray 2062 as part of the North Shore and all Sydney metropolitan regions. For emergencies, the business has capacity to service up to a 60km radius from base hubs. If you are in an apartment building or have restricted access, mention it when booking so arrival and setup can be planned properly.
Are you able to unblock drains in Cammeray?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains and provides sewer repairs, pipe relining, and CCTV inspections across Cammeray and Sydney. Clearing a blockage usually involves locating it first, then removing it using the least disruptive method for the pipework. If a camera inspection shows structural damage, repair options are explained and quoted once scope is confirmed onsite.
