Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Clontarf?

Fixed Today Plumbing dispatches licensed plumbers to Clontarf properties from our West Sydney hub, reaching most of the Northern Beaches area within typical response windows. Our team handles all plumbing work in Clontarf, from urgent ruptured pipe repairs to routine hot water servicing, with immediate dispatch available for emergencies and same-day bookings for standard jobs. This coverage includes Federation-era homes near the waterfront and newer developments further inland, where pipework, drainage, and access conditions vary by property age and street layout.

Many Clontarf homes were built during the post-war and 1970s expansion periods. Properties from these eras often contain terracotta or early PVC drainage lines, which are prone to root intrusion from established street trees and coastal vegetation. In practice, we see blockages caused by Ficus and Eucalypt roots that enter hairline cracks in aging pipes, trapping debris and eventually restricting flow. Coastal properties also face higher humidity and salt exposure, which can accelerate corrosion in older copper and galvanised steel pipework.

We provide reliable plumbing services across Clontarf, including blocked drain unblocking, water heater installations, gas fitting, leak detection, and general repairs. All attending technicians are properly licensed NSW plumbers, and we arrive in uniform with fully stocked mobile workshops. Our process follows a consistent sequence: diagnose the fault using CCTV cameras or leak detection tools where needed, confirm the scope and provide a fixed-price quote before we start, complete the repair to Australian Standards, and verify the outcome before leaving.

Fixed Today Plumbing is fully insured, with current Public Liability and Workers Compensation policies. Public Liability protects you if accidental property damage occurs during work, and Workers Compensation covers workplace injuries on the job. We've been operating across Sydney for over 15 years, and our near-perfect 5-star rating across 800+ verified reviews reflects our commitment to clear communication and quality workmanship. All repairs and installations are backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship, with standard manufacturer warranties applying to hardware and appliances.

General Plumbing Services in Clontarf

Everyday plumbing in Clontarf covers routine repairs, maintenance, and installations across residential and commercial properties. This includes fixing leaking taps, clearing blocked drains, repairing toilets and showers, and replacing worn fixtures. If onsite inspection reveals structural damage or compliance work beyond the initial scope, we explain the options and provide a separate fixed-price quote before proceeding.

Fixed Today Plumbing has been operating across Sydney for over 15 years, completing thousands of jobs in Northern Beaches suburbs including Clontarf. Our family-owned business dispatches licensed plumbers from local hubs, ensuring we understand the property types, pipework eras, and access constraints common to the area. We arrive in uniform, with police and background checks completed for all technicians, and we follow entry instructions carefully in occupied homes.

Our general plumbing process starts with a detailed onsite assessment. We confirm the affected area, check for related issues, and explain what we find in plain English. Once scope is confirmed onsite, we provide a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees. The price quoted is the price paid, and it's based on the job, not the hour. You decide whether to proceed once you know the full cost.

We handle blocked drains, leaking taps, toilet repairs, shower faults, and ruptured pipe emergencies, using high-definition CCTV drain cameras, high-pressure water jetting, and electronic leak location tools. Our mobile workshops carry premium parts for most common repairs, so we can often complete the work on the first visit. After completing repairs, we test the system to confirm proper function and clean up the work area before leaving.

All work is completed to Australian plumbing standards, and we provide compliance documentation where required for regulated work. Our Lifetime Labour Warranty covers all workmanship, and standard manufacturer warranties apply to hardware and appliances. We also service nearby suburbs including Wahroonga, North Turramurra, and Frenchs Forest.

We keep noise and disruption as low as practical during occupied home work. Drop sheets and protective covers are used to protect floors and finished surfaces, and we wear boot covers when requested or when conditions require it. If there's an urgent safety risk, we can provide brief safety-first guidance by phone to reduce harm while the plumber is on the way, without asking you to diagnose the fault yourself.

Hot Water Systems: Ensuring Continuous Warmth and Comfort

When a hot water system fails at a Clontarf property, the usual first sign is rust-coloured water in the morning or fluctuating temperature during use. This typically indicates a failing sacrificial anode rod or sediment buildup inside the tank, which insulates the heating element or gas burner and reduces effectiveness. We handle all hot water service service repairs and part replacements in Clontarf, including electric storage, gas continuous flow, and solar systems from major brands such as Rheem, Dux, and Rinnai.

Our hot water plumbers are licensed to install, repair, and maintain all system types. Following our standard process, we assess the fault onsite, confirm whether repair or replacement is needed, and provide a fixed-price quote before starting work. Under the National Construction Code and AS/NZS 3500 standards, hot water installations must include Tempering Valves to prevent scalding (limiting water to 50°C at the tap) and Pressure Relief Valves to prevent tank over-pressurisation. We ensure all installations meet these safety requirements.

Same-day service is available for most hot water repairs and like-for-like replacements in Clontarf, minimising disruption to your routine. If you're replacing an old system, we'll guide you through the options based on your household size, energy preferences, and budget. Electric storage systems offer lower upfront costs, while gas continuous flow systems provide energy efficiency and space-saving design.

Preventative maintenance extends the lifespan of hot water systems and reduces the risk of unexpected failure. We recommend periodic servicing to check the anode rod, flush sediment, and confirm pressure relief valve operation. Our affordable maintenance packages provide peace of mind and help avoid costly emergency replacements. All hot water work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship, with manufacturer warranties applying to tanks and components.

Blocked Drains: Preventing Clogs and Overflows

Drainage blockages in Clontarf properties often result from tree root intrusion in older terracotta and clay pipes, or Fat, Oil, and Grease (FOG) accumulation in kitchen lines. In practice, we see fine roots from established Ficus and Eucalypt trees entering microscopic cracks in aging pipes. Over time, these roots expand, trapping debris and restricting flow. In kitchen drains, FOG solidifies as it cools, creating stubborn deposits that narrow the pipe diameter and catch solid waste.

Our blocked drain specialists use high-definition drain inspection cameras to visually identify the blockage type, depth, and precise location within the property boundary. This diagnostic step allows us to recommend the most effective clearing method without invasive digging. High-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting) is the industry standard for clearing stubborn obstructions, using specialised nozzles that fire water at pressures between 3,000 and 5,000 PSI to pulverise roots and scour grease from pipe walls.

We also offer trenchless pipe lining for pipes with structural damage. This no-dig technology involves inserting a flexible, resin-saturated liner into the damaged pipe, which is then inflated and cured to create a seamless, structurally independent pipe-within-a-pipe. Relining is particularly effective for repairs beneath driveways, bathrooms, or established landscaping, avoiding the cost and disruption of excavation.

After clearing, we test flow rates and provide footage or photos of the findings where helpful. If inspection reveals collapsed pipes or extensive root damage beyond clearing, we explain the options and confirm scope before any additional work proceeds. All drainage work in Clontarf falls under Sydney Water's jurisdiction, and compliance certificates are issued where required for regulated work.

Leaking Taps: Saving Water and Money

A dripping tap wastes water and increases utility bills over time. Even a slow drip can waste thousands of litres per year, and the constant moisture can also promote mould growth around sinks and benchtops. We repair leaking taps, showerheads, and mixer fixtures across Clontarf properties, restoring them to proper working condition and preventing ongoing waste.

Most tap leaks are caused by worn washers, damaged O-rings, or deteriorated valve seats. Our plumbers carry replacement parts for common tap brands and can often complete repairs on the first visit. Where the tap body itself is corroded or cracked, we recommend replacement and can supply and install a new fixture to match your existing bathroom or kitchen style.

Besides saving you money on water bills, fixing leaks promptly prevents water damage to cabinetry and benchtops, and reduces the risk of mould growth in wet areas. We take care around finished surfaces such as stone benchtops and tiled splashbacks, and we clean up the work area before leaving.

Roof and Gutter Repairs: Protecting Your Home's Foundation

Roof and gutter leaks in Clontarf properties typically result from blocked downpipes, rusted box gutters, or damaged flashing around penetrations. During heavy rain, blocked gutters can overflow, directing water into wall cavities or under roof tiles, which leads to internal water damage and compromises structural integrity over time.

Our licensed plumbers inspect and repair roof plumbing systems, including gutters, downpipes, and overflow relief points. We clear blockages using high-pressure water jetting, replace rusted or damaged sections, and re-seal joints and flashing to restore weatherproofing. Where gutters are undersized for the roof catchment area or frequently overflow, we can install additional downpipes or upgrade to larger-capacity guttering.

Regular maintenance reduces the risk of overflow and water damage. We recommend annual gutter inspections and cleaning, particularly for properties with overhanging trees or coastal exposure. By addressing minor issues promptly, you can avoid costly repairs to ceilings, walls, and structural framing.

Shower Repairs: Rejuvenating Your Bathroom Oasis

Shower faults in Clontarf homes often present as low water pressure, leaking mixer taps, or slow drainage. Low pressure is commonly caused by mineral buildup in the showerhead or a failing pressure-balancing cartridge in the mixer. Leaks around the base of the shower screen or tray typically indicate failed silicone seals or cracked grout, which allows water to seep into the floor cavity and damage structural timbers or ceiling plaster below.

We repair all shower-related plumbing issues, including leaking showerheads, faulty mixer taps, blocked floor wastes, and failed waterproofing seals. Where the mixer cartridge is worn, we replace it with a genuine or equivalent part to restore consistent temperature control and flow. For drainage issues, we clear blockages using mechanical tools or water jetting, and we can also re-seal shower screens and trays to prevent water escape.

If inspection reveals structural water damage or failed waterproofing membranes, we explain the options and confirm scope before any additional work proceeds. All repairs are tested for proper function and checked for leaks before leaving.

Toilet Repairs: Eliminating Clogs and Leaks

Toilet faults commonly include slow flushing, constantly running cisterns, or complete blockages. A slow-flushing toilet is often caused by partial blockage in the trap or insufficient water volume from the cistern. A running cistern typically indicates a worn flapper valve or faulty inlet valve, which allows water to continuously flow into the pan, wasting water and increasing bills.

We handle all toilet repairs in Clontarf, from clearing stubborn blockages to replacing faulty cistern components such as flush valves, inlet valves, and overflow tubes. Our mobile workshops carry common replacement parts, so we can often complete repairs on the first visit without needing to return for parts.

For complete blockages that cannot be cleared with a plunger, we use mechanical augers or high-pressure water jetting to remove the obstruction. Where the blockage is located in the main sewer line beyond the property boundary, we coordinate with Sydney Water and provide documentation as required.

All toilet repairs are tested for proper flush function and checked for leaks before departing. If the toilet pan or cistern is cracked and cannot be repaired, we recommend replacement and can supply and install a new suite to match your bathroom style. Our work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

Gas Fitting: Ensuring Safety and Efficiency

Gas work in Clontarf properties includes new gas appliance installations, gas leak detection and repair, and periodic gas line inspections. Under AS/NZS 5601.1, all gas work in Australia must be performed by a fully fully licensed gasfitter, and any repaired or altered gas installation must undergo a pressure loss test to ensure the system is gas-tight before being recommissioned.

Our licensed gas fitters use specialised equipment including combustible gas detectors and thermal imaging to identify leaks behind walls or in sub-floors. The distinctive "rotten egg" odour in gas is an added mercaptan signal, but other indicators include hissing sounds near appliances, dying vegetation over underground lines, or unusual soot buildup on burners.

If you suspect a gas leak, turn off the gas supply at the meter if safe to do so, open windows for ventilation, avoid using electrical switches or open flames, and contact us immediately. We prioritise gas emergencies and dispatch a licensed gas fitter to assess the situation and make the system safe.

We also install new gas appliances including cooktops, ovens, hot water systems, and heating units. All installations are completed to Australian Standards, tested for leaks, and a compliance certificate is issued upon completion to verify the installation meets safety standards. Our work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship, with manufacturer warranties applying to appliances.

Burst and Leaking Pipes: Minimising Water Damage

Active leaks are stressful. The priority is getting a licensed plumbing specialist onsite to isolate the water supply, stop the leak, and limit property damage. Burst pipes in Clontarf properties often result from corrosion in older copper or galvanised steel pipes, ground movement in reactive clay soils, or freezing and expansion in exposed pipework during cold snaps.

Our plumbers use electronic ultrasonic leak detection tools to accurately pinpoint hidden leaks behind walls, under slabs, or in sub-floors. Once the leak location is confirmed, we isolate the affected section, repair or replace the damaged pipe, and test the system for leaks before restoring water supply.

Where the leak has caused water damage to ceilings, walls, or flooring, we can provide documentation and photos for insurance claims. If inspection reveals widespread pipe corrosion or multiple weak points, we explain the options and provide a separate quote for repiping before any additional work proceeds.

For emergency burst pipe situations, we provide immediate dispatch and arrival communication. If there's an urgent safety risk, we can provide brief safety-first guidance by phone to reduce harm while the plumber is on the way, such as isolating the water supply at the meter if safe to do so. Our work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

Strata Plumbing: Keeping Complexes Running Smoothly

Plumbing in strata complexes involves navigating shared infrastructure, common property boundaries, and coordination with building managers and strata committees. Our strata plumbers are experienced in managing these complexities, providing clear communication and documentation suitable for strata records and maintenance logs.

We handle routine maintenance, emergency repairs, and system upgrades for strata properties in Clontarf, including blocked drains, hot water unit servicing, gas leak identification, pipe relining, and leak detection and repair. We can work within strata-imposed access windows and follow site requirements such as inductions and sign-in procedures where required.

For common property plumbing issues, we coordinate with building managers to confirm responsibility boundaries and obtain access permissions. Where work affects multiple units or requires temporary water or gas shutdowns, we provide advance notice and clear communication to residents.

All work is completed to Australian plumbing standards, and we provide job documentation suitable for strata compliance records. Our Lifetime Labour Warranty covers all workmanship, and we can arrange periodic maintenance contracts for larger complexes to ensure ongoing system reliability and reduce emergency jobs.

Commercial Plumbing: Keeping Businesses Running Smoothly

Plumbing faults in commercial properties can disrupt operations, affect staff and customer comfort, and create safety risks. We provide comprehensive commercial plumbing services to businesses in Clontarf, including hospitality venues, retail spaces, office buildings, and healthcare facilities.

Our commercial plumbers handle blocked drains, burst pipe emergencies, water heater repairs, gas fitting installations, and compliance inspections. We prioritise rapid response to minimise downtime, and our fully stocked mobile workshops allow us to complete most repairs on the first visit.

We understand the operational constraints of commercial environments, including after-hours access requirements, noise restrictions, and the need for clear documentation. We can work within your operational schedule, coordinate with facility managers, and provide job documentation suitable for compliance records and maintenance logs.

All work is completed to Australian plumbing standards and relevant industry regulations, with compliance certificates issued where required for regulated work. Our Lifetime Labour Warranty covers all workmanship, and we can arrange periodic maintenance contracts to ensure ongoing system reliability and reduce the risk of unexpected failures.

Emergency Plumbing: Rapid Response When You Need It Most

Plumbing emergencies such as broken pipes, gas leaks, major blockages, or flooding require urgent attention to limit property damage and ensure safety. Our emergency plumbers are on call 24/7, dispatching from local hubs across Sydney to reach Clontarf properties as quickly as possible.

Urgent jobs are sent out first, and the nearest available technician is allocated from our dispatch points. We provide arrival communication and ETA updates where possible, and our plumbers arrive in uniform with fully stocked mobile workshops containing the tools and parts needed to resolve most emergencies on the spot.

Our emergency process prioritises safety and damage limitation. We assess the situation, isolate the affected system if needed, explain what's happening and what needs to be done, and provide a fixed-price quote before starting non-urgent work. For immediate safety actions such as isolating a gas supply or stopping an active leak, we act first and explain the scope once the situation is safe.

We understand that plumbing emergencies are stressful and disruptive. Our team will keep you informed throughout the process, answer your questions, and work efficiently to restore normal function and minimise disruption to your home or business. All emergency work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

Below are answers to questions Clontarf residents commonly ask about plumbing services, pricing, and what to expect when booking a plumber. If your question isn't covered here, contact us on 1800 349 338 or submit an enquiry online.

Should I hire a local plumbing professional or attempt DIY repairs?

Plumbing work in NSW must be performed by a licensed plumber to meet Australian Standards and maintain compliance with building codes and insurance requirements. DIY plumbing can void home warranties, create safety risks, and result in failed building inspections. For any plumbing installation or repair in Clontarf, it's always advised to hire a licensed professional.

How much does plumbing work cost in Clontarf?

Plumbing costs vary depending on scope, access, parts required, and time on site. We provide a fixed-price quote based on confirmed scope before starting work, so you know the full cost upfront. The price quoted is the price paid, with no hidden fees. To confirm call-out fee status for your booking, ask when scheduling your appointment.

What types of plumbing services do you provide in Clontarf?

We handle all domestic and commercial plumbing work in Clontarf, including blocked drains, hot water system repairs and installations, gas fitting, leaking taps, burst pipe emergencies, toilet and shower repairs, roof and gutter leak repairs, and CCTV drain inspections. If onsite assessment reveals additional work beyond the initial scope, we explain the options and provide a separate quote before proceeding.

Do you provide quotes over the phone or do you need to visit the property?

All jobs in Clontarf require onsite assessment to confirm scope and provide accurate pricing. Without inspecting the affected area, access conditions, and existing pipework, it's not possible to provide a reliable quote over the phone. We come to your property, assess the situation, and provide a flat-rate quote before starting work.

What does a plumber actually do?

Licensed plumbers install, repair, and maintain water supply systems, drainage systems, gas systems, and fixtures in residential and commercial properties. This includes pipework, taps, toilets, showers, hot water systems, gas appliances, gutters, and sewer lines. All work must meet Australian Standards and comply with local building codes and safety regulations.

How do I stop a toilet that keeps running after flushing?

A running toilet is typically caused by a worn flapper valve or faulty inlet valve in the cistern. While turning off the water supply at the tap behind the toilet can stop the flow temporarily, the underlying fault still needs repair. Toilet repairs are usually straightforward and cost-effective, and we can often complete them on the first visit.

Can you repair a leaking shower without major renovation work?

Most shower leaks can be repaired without major renovation. Common causes include worn mixer cartridges, failed silicone seals, or blocked floor wastes. We assess the fault onsite, confirm the cause, and provide a fixed-fee quote for the repair. If inspection reveals structural water damage or failed waterproofing, we explain the options and confirm scope before any additional work proceeds.

Do you service the entire Clontarf area?

Yes, we service all properties in Clontarf and across the Northern Beaches region. Our dispatch coverage extends up to a 60km radius from our hubs across Sydney, and we can reach most Clontarf properties within typical response windows. For emergency service calls, we provide arrival communication and ETA updates where possible.

Can you unblock drains in Clontarf properties?

Yes, our blocked drain specialists use high-definition CCTV cameras and high-pressure water jetting to clear blockages in Clontarf properties. We diagnose the cause, clear the obstruction, and test flow rates to confirm proper drainage. If inspection reveals structural damage or root intrusion beyond clearing, we explain the options and provide a separate quote for pipe relining or replacement.

How quickly can you reach Clontarf for emergencies?

We dispatch emergency plumbers to Clontarf 24/7 from local hubs across Sydney. Urgent jobs are sent out first, and the nearest available technician is allocated. Arrival timing depends on current bookings and traffic conditions, but we provide arrival communication and ETA updates where possible.
