Plumbing FAQ's in Eastgardens
These are practical answers to common plumbing questions we hear from Eastgardens residents and property managers. If you are unsure whether the situation is urgent, a short call is usually enough to book the right technician and confirm what happens next once the issue is inspected onsite.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For most plumbing in Eastgardens, a correctly licensed plumbing technician is the safe choice when there is active leaking, sewage backup, hot water faults, or anything involving gas. DIY attempts can worsen damage and complicate repairs. Fixed Today Plumbing sends licensed plumbers in NSW, and the job is assessed first so the correct scope and fixed upfront price can be provided.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing costs depend on the fault, access, parts required, and whether the job is urgent or after-hours. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, transparent pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you see the price after the issue is assessed and before work starts. No hidden costs; quotes are valid for 30 days from the date issued, and confirm call-out fee status when booking.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing handles general domestic and commercial plumbing, including blocked drains, burst pipes, leak testing, hot water supply systems, and licensed gas fitting. The right approach depends on what the onsite inspection finds, because the same symptom can come from different causes. If the issue requires additional work beyond the initial scope, the options are explained and quoted once the scope is clarified.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing typically quotes after an onsite assessment in Eastgardens, because seeing the pipework, fixtures, and access conditions makes the scope clearer. Diagnostics may include tools such as CCTV inspection equipment or leak detection equipment where relevant. Once the cause is confirmed, a fixed-price quote is provided before any repair or installation work starts.
What do Plumbers do?
Plumbers repair, install, and maintain water, drainage, and (where licensed) gas systems in homes and businesses. In practice that includes fault-finding leaks, clearing drains, replacing failed fixtures, and verifying the system works safely before leaving. For regulated work, a licensed technician is required to meet safety requirements and support compliant outcomes.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A continuously running toilet usually needs a detailed inspection, because the cause can be a worn valve, a seal issue, or a setup problem inside the cistern. If water is overflowing, stop using the toilet and arrange an urgent visit, because water damage can escalate quickly. Fixed Today Plumbing can assess the fault onsite in Eastgardens, then provide fixed upfront pricing before completing the repair.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower can be a simple fitting issue or a concealed leak, and the right fix depends on where the water is escaping. If water is actively entering walls, ceilings, or cabinetry, arrange an assessment promptly to limit damage. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the likely leak point onsite in Eastgardens, explains what needs to be accessed, then provides a flat-rate quote before repairs begin.
Do you service the entire Eastgardens area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Eastgardens 2036 as part of All Sydney metro areas. The attending plumber is allocated from localised dispatch points across Sydney, and arrival timing depends on current bookings, access, and traffic conditions. If your property has strata entry rules or restricted parking, share that when booking so scheduling and setup can be planned.
Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Eastgardens using diagnostic tools such as CCTV check and clearing methods such as high-pressure water jetting where suitable. This typically resolves common clogs and sewer backups in reachable pipes. If inspection shows damaged or failed pipework, the repair options (including no-dig repair where appropriate) are explained and quoted after scope is defined.
How fast can you come?
Fixed Today Plumbing offers immediate dispatch for emergencies, and same-day service is available for all standard plumbing and gas enquiries. An ETA is provided when booking where possible, and we provide clear arrival communication, including ETA updates where possible. Timing can change depending on existing emergency jobs, traffic, and access constraints at the property.
