Plumbing FAQ's in Camperdown
These Camperdown plumbing FAQs explain what to expect from an emergency callout, how fixed clear pricing works, and what can affect timing in Inner West properties. Each answer is general, and the right solution depends on what the site assessment finds, especially in apartment buildings where access and strata approvals can change the scope.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For Camperdown plumbing problems, a properly licensed, insured plumber is the safer option because water, drainage, and gas work can create property damage or compliance issues when it is not done correctly. Fixed Today Plumbing sends licensed NSW technicians, and the job is assessed onsite before a fixed-price quote is provided. If it is a small repair, it is often straightforward once the cause is confirmed.
How much does plumbing cost in Camperdown?
Plumbing cost in Camperdown depends on what is actually faulty, how accessible the pipework is, and whether the job is urgent or after-hours. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, clear pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you receive a fixed-price quote before work starts. No call-out fee applies in many service areas, so confirm call-out details when booking.
What type of plumbing work can you do in Camperdown?
Fixed Today Plumbing handles emergency and general plumbing across Camperdown, including blocked drains, burst and leaking pipes, toilet and shower repairs, hot water work, gutter and roof leaks, and licensed gas fitting. The exact solution depends on the onsite assessment because symptoms can have different causes in terraces versus apartment buildings. Once the scope is agreed, a fixed-price quote is provided before work starts.
Do you come to our house in Camperdown to quote?
Yes, most Camperdown jobs are quoted after an onsite assessment because accurate pricing depends on access, the location of the fault, and what is required to repair it properly. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the scope first, then provides a fixed-price quote before work starts. If inspection shows a bigger underlying issue, the options are explained and re-quoted once the scope is clear.
What do plumbers actually do?
A plumber diagnoses and repairs water, drainage, and related fixtures so the system works safely and reliably. In practice, that often means locating the cause of a leak or blockage, confirming what needs to be repaired, and completing the work to Australian Standards. Fixed Today Plumbing also provides licensed drainage and gas fitting services, where regulated work may require additional documentation after completion.
My toilet keeps running, is it urgent?
A running toilet is usually not a safety emergency, but it can waste a lot of water and it can get worse without warning. In Camperdown apartments, it can also cause nuisance noise for neighbours and sometimes point to a valve or cistern issue that needs correct parts. A plumber should assess it onsite, confirm the cause, then quote a fixed price before the repair starts.
My shower is leaking, should I stop using it?
If a shower leak is getting into walls, floors, or the ceiling below, it should be treated as urgent because water damage can escalate quickly. In Camperdown homes, the visible leak is not always the source, so an onsite inspection is the safest way to confirm the scope. Fixed Today Plumbing diagnoses first, provides a fixed-price quote, then repairs and tests the shower before leaving.

Are you able to unblock drains in Camperdown?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Camperdown using equipment such as high-pressure jetting and high-definition drain inspection cameras to locate the cause. The right method depends on what the inspection finds, for example grease buildup, a foreign object, or root intrusion. Once the scope is verified onsite, you receive fixed, transparent pricing before the drain is cleared and tested.
