Plumber in Eastwood

Fixed Today Plumbing handles general plumbing work in Eastwood, covering blocked drains, leaking taps, toilet repairs, hot water installations, gas appliance connections, and bathroom or kitchen fixture upgrades. This includes typical residential and light commercial jobs; if inspection reveals structural pipe damage, strata common-property work, or compliance requirements beyond standard scope, we explain the options and confirm next steps before proceeding. We're dispatched from West Sydney, reaching most Eastwood properties within standard response windows, with same-day availability for non-emergency bookings depending on current demand and 24/7 dispatch for urgent situations.

The process starts with an onsite assessment. We confirm the affected area, identify the cause using diagnostic tools where needed (CCTV cameras for drains, electronic leak detectors for hidden bursts, gas detectors for suspected leaks), and provide a fixed-price quote before any repair work starts. The price quoted is the price paid, no hidden fees, no hourly rate surprises. Once you approve the quote, we complete the work, test the outcome (flow rates for drains, pressure tests for gas lines, temperature checks for hot water), and clean up the work area before leaving. All repairs are backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship, with manufacturer warranties applying to any hardware or appliances installed.

Our team is licensed in NSW for plumbing, drainage, and gas fitting, fully insured with Public Liability and Workers Compensation, and experienced across Sydney's varied property types, from post-war brick homes with ageing terracotta pipes to modern townhouses with PVC drainage. We carry a fully stocked mobile workshop with premium parts, so most jobs are completed on the first visit without return trips for supplies. Whether it's a blocked laundry sink, a leaking shower, a failing hot water unit, or a gas cooktop installation, we bring the tools, parts, and local working knowledge to sort it out properly.

Eastwood's mix of housing eras, older homes near the rail line with original clay pipes, and newer developments with modern systems, means plumbing issues vary by location and property age. We've handled drainage blockages caused by tree root intrusion in older lines, hot water failures in storage tanks affected by sediment buildup, and gas appliance installations in renovated kitchens. The team confirms access and parking constraints when booking (particularly around the shopping precinct and narrow side streets), arrives in uniform, and can identify themselves before entry. We explain the scope in plain English, confirm what's included in the quote, and keep the work area as tidy as practical throughout the job.

For Eastwood residents needing reliable plumbing support, whether it's routine maintenance, an urgent leak, or a system upgrade, we provide clear communication, transparent pricing, and quality workmanship across the 2122 postcode and surrounding areas including Macquarie Park, Meadowbank, and Ryde.

Sydney's tap water meets high safety standards, but it can still carry chlorine, sediment from ageing pipes, and trace contaminants picked up during distribution. A water filtration system removes these unwanted elements, delivering cleaner drinking water at the tap. In Eastwood properties with older internal plumbing, particularly homes built in the post-war era with galvanised steel or copper pipes, sediment and rust particles are common concerns, and a filter provides an additional layer of protection.

We install, repair, and replace water filtration systems for Eastwood homes, including under-sink filters, benchtop units, and whole-house systems depending on your needs and existing plumbing setup. The installation process involves confirming the water supply line, fitting the filter unit, connecting it correctly, and testing flow and filtration performance. We explain the maintenance schedule (typically filter cartridge replacement every 6—12 months depending on usage and water quality) and provide documentation for future reference.

If you're concerned about water quality, sediment in your taps, or chlorine taste, a filtration system is a practical solution. Our team can recommend the most suitable filter type based on your property's plumbing, water pressure, and usage patterns, ensuring a refreshing and safe drinking water supply throughout your Eastwood home.

Plumbing emergencies, active leaks, ruptured pipes, gas smells, or sewage backups, require immediate attention to prevent property damage, health hazards, or safety risks. Fixed Today Plumbing offers 24/7 emergency dispatch for Eastwood, with urgent jobs sent out immediately from our West Sydney hub and the nearest available NSW-licensed plumber allocated. We provide arrival ETA updates where possible and confirm what the first visit involves: isolating the water or gas supply where needed, assessing the affected area, and explaining the options before any repair work proceeds.

For active leaks, the priority is stopping water flow and preventing further damage. We locate the source, isolate the supply, and assess whether it's a burst pipe, failed fixture, or damaged fitting. Once the leak is controlled and scope is defined, we provide a fixed-price quote for the permanent repair. Gas emergencies follow a similar process: if you smell gas, we recommend turning off the gas at the meter if safe to do so, evacuating the property, and calling us immediately. Our licensed gas fitters arrive with detection equipment, locate the leak, make the system safe, and explain the repair options once the immediate risk is managed.

Sewage backups and overflowing drains are unpleasant and unsanitary. We respond quickly, assess the blockage location using CCTV cameras where needed, and clear the obstruction with high-pressure water jetting or mechanical tools. If the backup is caused by tree root intrusion or structural pipe damage, we explain the long-term repair options (including trenchless drain relining) and confirm scope before proceeding. The goal is to restore flow, verify the system is working properly, and prevent recurrence.

Our emergency plumbers are licensed, insured, and experienced across Sydney's varied property types. We bring the tools, parts, and local working knowledge to handle urgent situations professionally, with minimal disruption and clear communication throughout. If you're facing a plumbing emergency in Eastwood, don't wait, call us now and we'll dispatch the nearest available plumber to get the situation under control.

Drainage blockages in Eastwood properties often result from a mix of causes: fat, oil, and grease (FOG) solidifying in kitchen lines, tree root intrusion in older terracotta sewer pipes, and foreign objects (wipes, sanitary products, hair buildup) restricting flow. When a blockage forms, wastewater backs up into sinks, showers, or toilets, creating an unsanitary and disruptive situation. Stormwater drains can also overflow during heavy rain if debris, leaves, or sediment accumulate in the line, particularly in properties with established trees or ageing drainage infrastructure.

Our licensed plumbers in Eastwood assess the blockage by confirming which fixtures are affected, identifying the likely location (internal line, boundary trap, or council main), and using high-definition CCTV drain cameras to visually inspect the pipe. The camera reveals the obstruction type, depth, and any structural issues such as cracks, root intrusion, or pipe collapse. Once the cause is confirmed, we clear the blockage using high-pressure water jetting, firing water at 3,000, 5,000 PSI to pulverise roots, scour grease from pipe walls, and flush debris through to the main sewer. For solid obstructions like tree roots or foreign objects, mechanical tools may be used to break up the blockage before jetting.

If inspection shows structural damage, cracks, collapsed sections, or severe root intrusion, we explain the long-term repair options, including trenchless pipe relining (a "no-dig" method that creates a new pipe relining inside the damaged section without excavation). We confirm scope, provide a fixed-price quote for the repair, and ensure the drainage system is tested and flowing properly before leaving. All work is backed by our workmanship warranty, with documentation provided for strata, agents, or council records where required.

Recurring blockages often indicate an underlying issue—root intrusion in older lines, incorrect pipe gradient, or FOG buildup from kitchen waste. We explain what's causing the repeat problem and recommend preventative measures or permanent repairs to avoid future disruptions. For Eastwood properties dealing with blocked drains, overflowing sewers, or stormwater issues, our team brings the diagnostic tools, clearing equipment, and local working knowledge to restore flow and confirm the long-term solution.

Gas systems require careful handling due to the serious risks involved: gas leaks can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, fires, or explosions if not detected and repaired promptly. Fixed Today's licensed gas fitters (NSW Licence 305428C) handle all gas plumbing work in Eastwood, including gas leakage detection, appliance installation (cooktops, ovens, hot water units, BBQs), gas line extensions, and compliance testing. All gas work is completed to AS/NZS 5601.1 standards, with pressure loss testing performed after any installation or repair to confirm the system is gas-tight before being recommissioned.

If you smell gas, a distinctive "rotten egg" odour caused by added mercaptan, turn off the gas at the meter if safe to do so, evacuate the property, and call us immediately. Our licensed gas fitters arrive with combustible gas detectors and thermal imaging equipment to locate the leak, even if it's behind walls or under floors. Once the leak is found, we isolate the supply, repair or replace the damaged section, and pressure-test the entire system to confirm there are no additional leaks. We then restore gas supply, test all appliances, and issue a compliance certificate where required for council or insurance records.

Gas appliance installations follow a similar process: we confirm the gas supply is adequate for the new appliance, run or extend the gas line as needed, connect the appliance correctly, test for leaks, and verify proper operation (flame colour, burner performance, ventilation). For new gas connections, adding gas to a property that previously relied on electric-only systems, we coordinate with the gas distributor, install the meter and supply line, run internal pipework to appliance locations, and complete all compliance testing and certification.

Gas work is not a DIY task. It's a legal requirement that all gas fitting, repairs, and installations are performed by a properly licensed gas fitter, and non-compliance can void insurance, create serious safety hazards, and result in fines. Our team brings the licensing, equipment, and experience to handle gas plumbing safely and correctly, with clear communication and transparent pricing throughout. If you're dealing with a suspected gas leak, planning a kitchen renovation with new gas appliances, or need a gas hot water system installed, we're available 24/7 for emergencies and same-day for standard bookings across Eastwood.
