Plumber Curl Curl

We've worked across Curl Curl's mix of mid-century brick homes and newer developments for over 15 years, building a near-perfect 5-star rating from 800+ verified customer reviews. Our family-owned business operates from localised dispatch points across Sydney, which means we can typically reach Curl Curl properties within standard response windows, even during peak traffic.

What sets us apart is transparency. We provide a fixed price quote before starting work?no hourly rate surprises or "unexpected" add-ons at the end. You're told what's included, what affects the price (scope, access, parts), and what happens next. If diagnostics reveal additional work, we explain the options and confirm scope before proceeding. That fixed quote is valid for one month, and it's backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

All our attending plumbers hold current NSW licences. Staff complete police checks and background checks, and they arrive in uniform so you can confirm identity before entry. We use drop sheets to protect floors, wear boot covers when requested, and clean up the work area before leaving. In homes with premium finishes?stone benchtops, timber floors, or tiled bathrooms?we isolate the work area and take reasonable care around visible surfaces.

Whether you're dealing with a blocked drain in an older home near the lagoon, a failing hot water system in a townhouse off Griffin Road, or a gas leak requiring urgent attention, we confirm the affected area onsite, explain what's involved, and provide a fixed quote before any work starts. That's how we've built trust across Sydney's Northern Beaches, and it's why Curl Curl residents keep calling us back.

A blocked drain in Curl Curl typically starts with slow drainage in sinks, showers, or floor waste, progressing to backups or overflows if left unaddressed. Fixed Today Plumbing locates the restriction using high-definition drain inspection cameras, then removes it with high-pressure water jetting or mechanical clearing, depending on what the inspection reveals. This covers typical internal and external blockages in accessible lines; if the camera shows structural damage or root intrusion requiring pipe repair, we explain the options and provide a fixed quote before any additional work proceeds.

In older Curl Curl properties near the lagoon?many built in the 1960s and 1970s?drainage lines are often original terracotta or early clay pipe. These materials are prone to root intrusion, where fine roots enter microscopic cracks, expand over time, and trap debris. In kitchens, Fat, Oil, and Grease (FOG) accumulation is common; as it cools and solidifies, it narrows the pipe diameter and catches solid waste, creating what's known as a "fatberg."

Our standard approach begins with a CCTV camera inspection to identify the blockage type, depth, and precise location within the property boundary. This visual confirmation allows us to select the right clearing method without guesswork. High-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting) is the industry standard for stubborn obstructions; it uses specialised nozzles that fire water at 3,000 to 5,000 PSI, pulverising roots and scouring grease from pipe walls to restore near-full capacity. For specific metal or plastic foreign objects, we may use mechanical "electric eels" instead.

Once the line is cleared, we verify flow with a final camera pass and explain what caused the blockage. If tree roots are the issue, we discuss options such as ongoing maintenance or trenchless pipe relining (a "pipe-within-a-pipe" solution that creates a seamless, root-resistant liner without excavation). All drainage work in Curl Curl falls under Sydney Water's jurisdiction, so compliance certificates are issued where required.

If you're dealing with slow drainage or a backup, don't wait for it to escalate. A brief call is enough to book a CCTV check and confirm the cause. We'll provide a fixed quote once scope is confirmed onsite, and you can decide with full transparency.

Roof and gutter leaks in Curl Curl can cause internal water damage, ceiling staining, and?if left unaddressed?structural deterioration or foundation issues. Fixed Today Plumbing identifies the entry point using visual inspection and water testing, then seals it using the appropriate method for the roofing material and leak location. This covers typical flashing failures, gutter overflow, and downpipe blockages; if inspection reveals broader structural issues or requires coordination with a roofing specialist, we explain the options and confirm scope before proceeding.

In practice, roof leaks often show up as ceiling stains or drips during heavy rain. The actual entry point may be several metres away from the visible damage, as water can travel along roof timbers or sarking before dripping through. Common causes include deteriorated flashing around chimneys or skylights, rusted valley gutters, or blocked downpipes that cause water to back up under roof tiles.

Gutter blockages are particularly common in Curl Curl's older streets with established trees. Leaves and debris accumulate in valley gutters, restricting flow and causing overflow during storms. We clear the blockage, test flow with water, and confirm the downpipes are discharging correctly. If the gutters are rusted or sagging, we explain replacement options and provide a fixed quote.

For strata properties or homes with tile or metal roofing, access and safety are key considerations. We follow site requirements where needed and coordinate with strata managers to confirm common property boundaries. All work is tested before we leave, and we clean up debris generated during the repair.

If you're seeing ceiling stains, drips during rain, or overflowing gutters, don't wait for the next storm. A quick call is enough to book an inspection. We'll identify the cause, explain what's involved, and provide a fixed quote so you can address it before further damage occurs.

Toilet faults in Curl Curl?constant running, weak flush, leaks at the base, or blockages?are disruptive and can waste significant water if left unaddressed. Fixed Today Plumbing restores function by repairing or replacing faulty components (cistern internals, flush valves, pan collars) or clearing blockages using the appropriate method for the obstruction type. This covers typical residential toilet repairs and replacements; if inspection reveals underlying drainage issues or structural problems requiring broader work, we explain the options and confirm scope before proceeding.

A toilet that keeps running after flushing usually indicates a faulty flush valve or fill valve inside the cistern. These components wear out over time, allowing water to leak continuously from the cistern into the bowl. We replace the faulty part onsite, test the flush cycle, and confirm the leak has stopped. Weak flush often traces back to a partially blocked rim jet or a faulty flush valve that's not releasing enough water per flush.

Leaks at the base of the toilet typically indicate a failed pan collar (the seal between the toilet and the waste pipe). This requires lifting the toilet, replacing the seal, and reinstalling the pan?a straightforward job that prevents water damage to flooring and subfloors. Blocked toilets are usually caused by excessive toilet paper, foreign objects, or?in older properties with original drainage?tree root intrusion further down the line. We clear the blockage using a mechanical auger or water jetting, then verify flow with a test flush.

For strata properties or homes with premium finishes (stone floors, underfloor heating), we isolate the work area, use drop sheets to protect surfaces, and coordinate with managers where needed. If the toilet is beyond economical repair, we provide a fixed quote for replacement that includes the new suite, labour, and disposal of the old unit.

If your toilet is running constantly, flushing weakly, leaking at the base, or blocked, a short call is enough to schedule an assessment. We'll confirm the cause onsite and provide a fixed quote so you can decide with confidence.

A burst or leaking pipe in Curl Curl can cause rapid water damage to floors, ceilings, walls, and belongings if not addressed immediately. Fixed Today Plumbing locates the leak using electronic ultrasonic leak detection or thermal imaging, isolates the water supply to stop further damage, then repairs or replaces the affected section. This covers typical ruptured pipe emergencies and concealed leaks in accessible locations; if inspection reveals broader pipe deterioration or requires access through finished surfaces, we explain the options and confirm scope before proceeding.

Burst pipes often occur suddenly?a loud bang followed by water spraying from walls, ceilings, or subfloors. Common causes include frozen pipes (rare in Curl Curl but possible during cold snaps), corrosion in older galvanised steel or copper pipes, or excessive water pressure. Concealed leaks are more insidious; they show up as damp patches, ceiling stains, rising water bills, or the sound of running water when all taps are off.

In practice, the first priority is stopping the water. We isolate the supply at the meter or nearest valve, assess the damage, and locate the leak using specialised detection tools. Once the leak is found, we repair it using the appropriate method?pipe patching, section replacement, or full-line replacement if the pipe is deteriorated. We test the repair under pressure, verify flow at all fixtures, and confirm the leak has stopped before leaving.

For homes with premium finishes?stone floors, timber ceilings, or tiled bathrooms?we isolate the work area, use drop sheets to protect surfaces, and coordinate access through finished surfaces where needed. In strata properties, we confirm lot vs common property boundaries and provide documentation suitable for insurance claims and maintenance logs.

If you're seeing water spraying from walls or ceilings, hearing running water when taps are off, or noticing unexplained damp patches, don't wait. Isolate the water supply if safe to do so, then call immediately. We'll dispatch a licensed and adequately insured plumber to locate the leak, stop the damage, and provide a fixed quote for the repair.

General plumbing in Curl Curl covers the full range of residential and light commercial services?everything from tap replacements and toilet repairs to heating system servicing and backflow prevention testing. Fixed Today Plumbing provides licensed plumbing services across Curl Curl, dispatched from local hubs with same-day availability for most jobs. This includes typical maintenance, repairs, and installations in accessible locations; if inspection reveals broader system issues or requires specialist coordination, we explain the options and confirm scope before proceeding.

Our fully equipped vehicles carry premium parts and testing tools, which means we can often complete repairs on the first visit. The standard process is straightforward: we assess the issue onsite, confirm the scope, provide a fixed quote, complete the work to Australian Standards, test the outcome, and clean up the work area before leaving. You're told what's included, what affects the price, and what happens next?no hourly rate surprises or "unexpected" add-ons at the end.

We also handle gas fitting (appliance connections, leak detection, compliance testing), roofing and guttering inspections (leak identification, gutter clearing, downpipe repairs), Thermostatic Mixing Valves (TMV installation for scalding prevention), and backflow prevention (annual testing and compliance certification). For strata properties, we coordinate with managers, confirm responsibility boundaries, and provide documentation suitable for maintenance logs.

Commercial plumbing work in Curl Curl?whether it's a café near the beach, a retail space along the Dee Why corridor, or a healthcare facility?requires minimal downtime, clear documentation, and coordination with operational constraints. Fixed Today Plumbing offers licensed commercial plumbing services across Curl Curl, covering maintenance, repairs, and installations for businesses of all sizes. This includes typical commercial work in accessible locations; if the job requires after-hours scheduling, specialist equipment, or coordination with building managers, we explain the options and confirm scope before proceeding.

In practice, commercial plumbing issues can halt operations quickly. A blocked drain in a restaurant kitchen affects food safety and service. A leaking toilet in a retail space creates slip hazards and reputational risk. A failed hot water supply service in a healthcare facility impacts hygiene and patient care. Our team understands these pressures and prioritises rapid response, clear communication, and first-visit resolution where practical.

We handle blocked pipes and drains (grease traps, floor waste, sewer lines), hot water service unit repairs and replacements (instantaneous gas, electric storage, heat pump systems), ruptured pipes and leak detection (minimising water damage and restoring supply), and gas fitting (appliance connections, leak detection, compliance testing). For strata commercial properties, we coordinate with building managers, follow site induction requirements, and provide documentation suitable for maintenance logs and compliance records.

Our commercial plumbers are licensed, insured, police-checked, and background-checked.
