Plumber Davidson

Fixed Today Plumbing provides residential and commercial plumbing services across Davidson, dispatched from hubs in West Sydney and surrounding North Shore areas. Our team includes licensed plumbers, drainers, and gasfitters, all holding current NSW licences (Licence 305428C). We've been operating across Sydney since 2010, completing thousands of jobs in suburbs like Davidson where a mix of older clay drainage and modern PVC systems requires different approaches depending on the property era.

We're a family-owned business, and that shapes how we work. Technicians arrive in uniform, confirm identity at the door, and explain what they're doing before starting. We use drop sheets to protect floors and clean up the work area before leaving. If you have specific entry instructions or security preferences, let us know when booking and we'll follow them.

Our pricing model is straightforward: you receive a fixed price quote after we assess the job onsite, and that quote is what you pay. No hourly rates, no surprise add-ons. If inspection reveals additional scope, we explain the options and provide a revised quote before proceeding. The call-out fee status varies by suburb, so confirm that detail when you book. All workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, meaning if the repair fails due to our work, we return and fix it at no additional labour cost.

We handle a wide range of plumbing work, including:

• Hot water system installation and repair for gas, electric, and solar models
• Blocked drain unblocking using high-pressure water jetting and CCTV inspection
• Tap and fixture leak repairs
• Roof plumbing and gutter maintenance
• Gas fitting and leak detection
• Burst pipe repairs and water leak detection
• Toilet repairs and like-for-like replacements
• Strata plumbing coordination

For emergency situations, we provide 24/7 dispatch. Urgent jobs are sent out first, and we aim to provide an ETA when you call. Same-day service is available for most standard plumbing enquiries, subject to technician availability and current workload. If you're unsure whether your situation is urgent, a quick call can clarify the risk and help us prioritise appropriately.

All our technicians complete police checks and background checks. We respect your home, follow site instructions, and provide documentation suitable for landlords, agents, and strata records where needed. If you have questions about a specific job or need advice before booking, our team is available to discuss your situation and confirm what's involved.

A drain blockage in Davidson typically starts with slow drainage in sinks or showers, followed by gurgling sounds or water backing up through floor waste grates. The most common cause in established properties is tree root intrusion, where fine roots from native eucalypts or garden plantings enter cracks in aging terracotta or clay pipes. Over time, these roots expand and trap debris, eventually restricting flow and causing backups.

We clear blockages using high-pressure water jetting, which fires water at pressures sufficient to pulverise roots and scour grease and sediment from pipe walls. For stubborn obstructions or when the blockage location is unclear, we insert a high-definition CCTV drain camera to visually inspect the line. The camera footage shows the exact blockage type, depth, and any structural damage such as cracks, collapses, or offset joints.

If the pipe is structurally sound, clearing the blockage restores normal flow. If inspection reveals damage, we explain the repair options: excavation and replacement for short damaged sections, or trenchless drain relining for longer runs or areas where digging would disrupt driveways, landscaping, or established trees. Relining involves inserting a resin-saturated liner into the existing pipe, then curing it to form a seamless internal pipe that is structurally independent of the old one.

For Davidson properties backing onto Garigal National Park or with large established trees near sewer lines, root intrusion is almost expected over time. Regular maintenance, such as periodic jetting and inspection, can identify early root penetration before it causes a full blockage. If you're experiencing slow drains or unusual odours, an assessment confirms the cause and the most cost-effective approach to restore flow.

Your roof and gutters channel rainwater away from the property, preventing water damage to walls, foundations, and landscaping. Over time, gutters accumulate leaf litter, particularly in Davidson properties surrounded by native bushland, and downpipes can become blocked with debris. When gutters overflow during heavy rain, water can pool near the foundation or seep into roof cavities, causing internal leaks and structural damage.

Fixed Today Plumbing delivers roof plumbing services including gutter cleaning, downpipe clearing, and leak repairs. We inspect the gutter system for rust, sagging sections, and damaged brackets, then clear debris and test water flow to confirm the system is draining correctly. If leaks are present, we identify the source (split seams, rusted sections, or damaged flashing) and provide a fixed-price quote for the repair.

For properties with large established trees overhanging the roofline, gutter guards can reduce the frequency of cleaning by preventing leaf buildup while still allowing water to flow freely. We can supply and install gutter guards as part of a maintenance visit, reducing the risk of blockages during Sydney's heavy storm seasons.

Roof plumbing work is scheduled around weather conditions and access requirements. If your property has steep roof pitches or limited safe access, we use appropriate safety equipment and follow WorkSafe NSW guidelines. All roof plumbing repairs are tested prior to leaving to confirm water is channelling correctly and no leaks remain.

Fixed Today Plumbing repairs and replaces toilets across Davidson, handling issues such as continuous running, weak flush, leaking cisterns, and blocked toilet bowls. A running toilet typically indicates a faulty flush valve or fill valve, both of which can be replaced during a single visit. A weak flush often results from blocked rim jets or an incorrectly adjusted water level in the cistern, both straightforward to resolve once diagnosed.

For blocked toilets, we assess whether the obstruction is in the bowl trap, the branch line, or further downstream in the main sewer. Most residential toilet blockages clear with a manual auger or high-pressure jetting. If the blockage is caused by tree roots in the sewer line, we use CCTV check to locate the restriction and confirm the best clearing method.

Toilet replacements are necessary when the pan is cracked, the flush mechanism is obsolete and parts are unavailable, or the toilet is outdated and inefficient. Modern dual-flush toilets use significantly less water per flush, reducing water bills over time. We supply and install compliant models, remove the old toilet, seal the new pan to the floor, and test for leaks and correct flush operation before finishing.

All toilet repairs are backed by our workmanship warranty. If the same issue recurs due to our work, we return and fix it at no additional labour cost. For urgent toilet blockages or leaks, same day service is typically available, provided a technician is dispatched and site access permits immediate work.

Burst pipes in Davidson properties typically result from corrosion in aging copper or galvanised steel pipes, ground movement stressing pipe joints, or freezing conditions in exposed external lines. A ruptured pipe causes rapid water loss, flooding, and potential damage to floors, walls, and furnishings. The priority is isolating the water supply to stop the leak, then repairing or replacing the damaged section.

We use electronic ultrasonic leak detection to locate hidden leaks behind walls or under concrete slabs without invasive demolition. Once the leak is located, we assess whether the pipe can be repaired with a patch or coupling, or whether a full section replacement is necessary. For extensive corrosion or multiple leaks in aging pipework, repiping the impacted area with modern materials (typically PEX or copper) provides a long-term solution and reduces the risk of future failures.

After completing the repair, we test the system under normal operating pressure to confirm the leak is resolved and no additional weak points are present. We also check for water damage to surrounding structures and advise on any drying or remediation work required. All pipe repairs are backed by our workmanship warranty, so if the same section fails due to our work, we return and fix it at no additional labour cost.

For urgent broken pipe situations, we provide 24/7 emergency dispatch. If you're experiencing active flooding, turn off the water at the main isolation valve if accessible, then call for immediate assistance. We'll dispatch the nearest available technician and provide an ETA based on current location and traffic conditions.

Fixed Today Plumbing handles all aspects of general plumbing for Davidson homes and businesses, from routine maintenance to major renovations. Our fully stocked vehicles carry the tools and parts needed for most standard residential repairs, allowing us to complete many jobs during the first visit without return trips for parts.

General plumbing services include leak repairs, tap and fixture replacements, toilet and cistern repairs, hot water service troubleshooting, drain unblocking, and installation of new fixtures. We also provide pre-purchase plumbing inspections for buyers assessing older properties, identifying potential issues such as corroded pipework, failing hot water systems, or drainage problems that may require future work.

Preventative maintenance reduces the likelihood of emergency failures and extends the lifespan of plumbing systems. Regular inspections identify early signs of wear, such as minor leaks, corroded fittings, or slow drains, allowing repairs to be scheduled at a convenient time rather than during a crisis. For properties with aging plumbing infrastructure, a maintenance plan provides peace of mind and helps manage long-term costs.

We provide upfront fixed pricing after assessing the job onsite, so you know the cost before work starts. If inspection reveals additional scope, we explain the options and provide a revised quote before proceeding. All work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, and we stand by the quality of our workmanship on every job.
