Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Epping?

Fixed Today Plumbing services Epping by dispatching licensed plumbers from our West Sydney hub, reaching most jobs in the area within typical response windows. We're available 24/7 for emergencies and same-day bookings for standard work. All attending technicians are licensed plumbers (NSW), adequately insured with Public Liability and Workers Compensation, and backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

Epping's housing includes a mix of older homes from the 1960s and 1970s (often with terracotta or early PVC drainage) alongside modern townhouses and apartments built in the last two decades. This variety means plumbing systems vary widely by property age, and we adjust our approach accordingly. Older homes sometimes present root intrusion or corroded pipe issues, while newer builds typically use PVC and may have different pressure or fixture configurations.

We provide upfront, fixed-price quotes once the scope is established onsite. The price quoted is the price paid, with no surprise charges. For many service areas, there's no call-out fee; when booking, confirm the call-out fee status for your suburb. You can decide whether to proceed once you've seen the scope and the fixed quote.

Our work covers general residential plumbing (leaking taps, toilet repairs, burst pipes), hot water system repairs and installations (gas, electric, solar), drain blockage clearing using CCTV cameras and high-pressure jetting, gas fitting and leak location, and trenchless pipe relining. We complete the job to Australian Standards, test and verify outcomes before leaving, and clean up the work area.

If you're dealing with an urgent issue like an active leak or gas smell, contact our emergency plumbing team immediately. For non-urgent work, we can schedule an assessment at a time that suits your access requirements.

Comprehensive Plumbing Services in Epping

We handle the full range of residential and commercial plumbing work in Epping, from diagnosing a slow drain to installing a complete hot water unit. Our team has over 15 years of experience across Sydney, with the tools and parts on hand to resolve most issues on the first visit when access and scope allow.

The process starts with an onsite assessment. We identify the fault, explain what's involved, and provide a fixed-price quote before any work begins. Once you've confirmed the scope and price, we complete the repair or installation, test the system, and verify the outcome before leaving. This covers typical residential situations; if inspection reveals something outside the original scope (such as structural damage requiring relining or excavation), we explain the options and provide a separate quote for that work.

Our licensed plumbers are qualified to work on drainage (blockages, CCTV inspections, relining), overflowing drains, hot water supply (storage and continuous flow, gas and electric), gas fitting (appliance connections, leak identification, compliance testing), ruptured pipes, leaking taps and fixtures, and toilet and bathroom installations. We've completed jobs across Western Sydney, including burst pipe repairs in West Pennant Hills, blocked drain cleaning in Parramatta, and water heater replacements in Picnic Point.

All work is performed by licensed master plumbers and gas fitters, and we're properly insured. We arrive in uniform, confirm identity on arrival, and follow your access instructions. We use drop sheets to protect floors, wear boot covers when requested, and clean up the work area at the end of the job. For commercial plumbing or strata environments, we can follow site induction requirements and provide documentation suitable for maintenance logs.

Same-day service is available for most standard plumbing work when you book early. For emergencies, we dispatch immediately and provide an ETA when booking. If you're unsure whether your situation is urgent, a brief call is enough to confirm priority and arrange the right technician.

Upfront Fixed Pricing

We provide a fixed-price quote after confirming the scope onsite. The price quoted is the price paid, with no hidden costs or unexpected charges at the end of the job.

Near-Perfect Customer Rating

With over 800 verified reviews and a near-perfect 5-star rating, our customers consistently report satisfaction with our clear communication, professionalism, and quality of work.

24/7 Emergency Dispatch

Urgent jobs are sent out first. We dispatch from local hubs across Sydney, including West Sydney, and provide ETA updates where possible so you know when to expect arrival.

Licensed, Insured, Verified

All attending technicians are correctly licensed plumbers in NSW. We're properly insured (Public Liability and Workers Compensation), and police and background checks are completed for all staff.

Leaking Taps

A dripping tap usually indicates a worn washer, cartridge, or O-ring inside the tap body. In some cases, the leak originates from a loose connection or corroded pipe behind the wall rather than the tap itself. Either way, the persistent drip wastes water and can increase your bill over time.

We start by isolating the water supply to the affected tap, then disassemble the tap to inspect the internal components. If it's a simple washer or cartridge replacement, we carry common parts on the van and can complete the repair immediately. If the issue traces back to a damaged pipe or connection, we'll explain what's involved and provide a quote for that additional work before proceeding.

Older homes in Epping sometimes have original tapware from the 1970s or earlier, which can be harder to source parts for. In those situations, we discuss replacement options that match the existing style and function. For leak detection behind walls or under slabs, we use electronic ultrasonic equipment to pinpoint the source without invasive demolition.

Once the repair is complete, we test the tap under normal operating pressure to confirm the leak has stopped and check nearby connections for any secondary issues. The work area is left clean, and we provide a receipt suitable for landlords or agents if required.

Emergency Plumbing

An emergency plumbing situation in Epping typically involves an active water leak, a broken pipe, a gas smell, or a complete loss of water supply or drainage. These situations require immediate attention to prevent property damage, safety risks, or further system failure.

When you contact us for an emergency, we dispatch the nearest available duly licensed plumber from our local hubs. Urgent jobs are sent out first, and we provide an ETA when booking so you know when to expect arrival. If it's safe to do so, we may provide brief guidance by phone to reduce immediate harm while the plumber is on the way, such as isolating the water supply at the meter or turning off gas at the main valve. We don't ask you to diagnose the fault or attempt repairs yourself.

On arrival, we assess the situation, make it safe (isolate water or gas, stop active leaks), and explain what's required to restore normal function. For broken pipes, that usually means cutting out the damaged section and installing a new length of pipe. For gas leaks, we conduct a pressure loss test to confirm the system is gas-tight after the repair. For drainage backups, we clear the blockage using high-pressure jetting or mechanical clearing, then run a CCTV camera to confirm flow and check for structural damage.

We're available 24/7, including weekends and public holidays. The fixed-price model still applies: you'll receive a quote once the scope is confirmed onsite, and you can decide whether to proceed. For emergencies where immediate action is required to prevent further damage, we'll explain the priority work and provide the quote for any additional repairs separately.

Blocked and Leaking Toilets

Toilet faults in Epping homes range from a simple blockage (caused by excessive paper or foreign objects) to a leaking cistern, cracked bowl, or faulty flush mechanism. We handle all toilet repairs and full toilet suite replacements, and we can assess the issue onsite to confirm what's required.

For blockages, we start by attempting to clear the obstruction using a manual auger or high-pressure jetting if the blockage is further down the line. If the blockage is in the toilet trap itself, we can usually resolve it on the spot. If it's in the main sewer line, we'll run a CCTV camera to locate the restriction and confirm whether it's a simple blockage or a structural issue like root intrusion or pipe collapse.

Leaking toilets often involve a worn flush valve, damaged cistern seal, or cracked porcelain. We carry common replacement parts and can repair most leaks immediately. If the bowl or cistern is cracked, replacement is usually the safest option. We can supply and install a new toilet suite on the same day in most cases, and we'll remove and dispose of the old unit as part of the job.

For full bathroom installations or renovations, we coordinate with other trades where needed and ensure all plumbing work meets Australian Standards. We test the flush and check for leaks under pressure before leaving, and we clean up thoroughly, including removing packaging and debris.

Blocked Drains

When a drain blocks, it's usually because something has restricted the flow inside the pipe. In kitchens, that's often a buildup of fat, oil, and grease that solidifies as it cools, trapping food particles and narrowing the pipe over time. In bathrooms, soap residue and hair combine to form a dense mass that catches on pipe joints or bends. In older Epping properties with terracotta or clay drainage, tree roots are a common cause, especially where large established trees are present near the sewer line.

We start by running a high-definition CCTV camera through the line to locate the blockage and identify the cause. This tells us whether it's a simple obstruction that can be cleared with high-pressure water jetting, or whether there's structural damage (cracks, root intrusion, collapsed pipe) that requires relining or excavation. The camera footage also shows us the pipe material, diameter, and depth, which informs the clearing method and any follow-up work.

For straightforward blockages, we use a high-pressure water jetter (hydro-jetting) that fires water at pressures between 3,000 and 5,000 PSI to break up the obstruction and scour the pipe walls clean. This restores the line to near-full capacity and removes buildup that could cause future blockages. For root intrusion, we use a mechanical cutting head to remove the roots, then recommend relining to seal the entry points and prevent regrowth.

If you're dealing with a clogged drain in Epping, contact us to arrange an assessment. We'll confirm the cause, explain the options, and provide a fixed quote before starting any clearing or repair work. Once the blockage is cleared, we test the flow and provide a copy of the CCTV footage if requested.

Hot Water Systems

Choosing a hot water service depends on your household size, fuel type availability (gas or electric), space constraints, and budget. We supply and install storage systems (tank-based, gas or electric), continuous flow systems (instantaneous, gas or electric), and heat pump or solar systems where suitable.

Storage systems are often the most cost-effective upfront and work well for households with predictable hot water usage patterns. Continuous flow systems provide hot water service on demand and are more energy-efficient, but they require higher gas pressure or electrical capacity and cost more to install. Heat pump and solar systems have higher upfront costs but lower running costs over time, and they may be eligible for rebates depending on your location and system type.

We can recommend a system based on your usage patterns, available space, and fuel preference. Common brands we install include Rheem, Rinnai, Dux, Bosch, and Thermann, and we carry warranty coverage on both the unit (manufacturer warranty) and the installation (our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship). For hot water system replacement, we can often complete the installation on the same day, including removal and disposal of the old unit.

If your existing system is failing, the most common signs are rust-coloured water (indicating a corroded tank or anode rod), fluctuating temperatures (failing thermostat or heating element), or visible leaks around the base (tank corrosion or pressure relief valve fault). We assess the system onsite, explain whether repair or replacement is the more cost-effective option, and provide a fixed quote before proceeding.

All installations include compliance with Australian Standards, installation of a Tempering Valve (to prevent scalding), and a Pressure Relief Valve (to prevent over-pressurisation). We test the system under normal operating conditions before leaving and provide documentation suitable for warranty registration and compliance records.

Water Filters

Tap water in Sydney is treated to meet safety standards, but it can still contain trace amounts of chlorine (used in the sanitation process), sediment from aging pipes, and naturally occurring minerals. A water filtration system removes these contaminants and improves the taste and clarity of your drinking water.

We install under-sink filters (point-of-use), whole-house filters (point-of-entry), and reverse osmosis systems depending on your water quality concerns and budget. Under-sink filters are the most common for residential properties and are installed on the cold water line feeding your kitchen tap. Whole-house filters treat all water entering the property and are useful if you have high sediment levels or want filtered water at every tap. Reverse osmosis systems provide the highest level of filtration and are typically installed under the sink with a separate tap for drinking water.

We assess your water quality, explain the options, and recommend a system that suits your needs. Installation is usually completed on the same day, and we test the system to confirm flow rate and filtration effectiveness before leaving. Filters require periodic replacement (typically every 6 to 12 months depending on usage and water quality), and we can arrange a service reminder or provide replacement filters as needed.

If you're unsure whether a filter is necessary, we can test your tap water onsite or recommend a water quality test to identify specific contaminants. Once the system is installed, you'll notice improved taste, reduced chlorine odour, and clearer water suitable for drinking, cooking, and filling appliances like coffee machines.

Burst Pipe Repair

A burst pipe is an urgent situation that requires immediate isolation and repair to prevent property damage and water loss. Pipe failures in residential properties typically result from high water pressure (above the recommended range), corrosion (especially in older galvanised steel or copper pipes), ground movement (shifting soil or tree roots), or freezing (rare in Sydney but possible in winter for exposed pipes).

When you contact us for a broken pipe, the priority is to isolate the water supply at the meter or isolation valve to stop the leak. If you're unsure how to do this, we can provide brief guidance by phone while the plumber is on the way. Once onsite, we locate the burst section, cut out the damaged pipe, and install a new length using the appropriate material (copper, PVC, or PEX depending on the application and existing system).

In older Epping homes, we sometimes find that the burst is a symptom of broader system issues, such as corroded pipes throughout the property or excessive water pressure from the mains. In those cases, we explain the options: repair the immediate burst and monitor for future failures, or replace the affected section of pipework to reduce the risk of repeat failures. We also check the water pressure and install a pressure-limiting valve if the mains pressure exceeds the safe range.

Once the repair is complete, we test the system under normal operating pressure to confirm there are no leaks, and we check nearby connections for any secondary issues. The work area is cleaned up, and we provide documentation suitable for insurance claims if required.

Gas Plumbing

Gas work in NSW must be performed by a licensed and insured gas fitter and requires compliance with AS/NZS 5601.1 (the Australian Standard for gas installations). Our team includes licensed gas fitters qualified to install, repair, and test gas appliances, pipework, and connections safely.

Common gas work in Epping includes connecting new appliances (cooktops, ovens, gas hot water systems, BBQs), investigating suspected gas leaks, and upgrading or relocating gas lines for renovations. Gas leaks are identifiable by the distinctive "rotten egg" odour (an added mercaptan signal), a hissing sound near appliances or pipes, or dying vegetation over underground gas lines.

If you suspect a gas leakage, evacuate the property, avoid using electrical switches or open flames, and contact us immediately. We'll dispatch a licensed gas fitter to locate the leak using a combustible gas detector or thermal imaging, isolate the gas supply, and repair or replace the faulty section. Once the repair is complete, we conduct a pressure loss test to confirm the system is gas-tight before recommissioning the supply.

For new installations or alterations, we provide a compliance certificate (required in most jurisdictions) to verify the work meets safety standards. All gas work is tested and verified before leaving, and we explain how to operate the appliance safely and what to do if you notice any issues in future.

Gas systems are potentially more dangerous than water systems if not installed correctly. Carbon monoxide poisoning, fires, and explosions can result from faulty gas work. That's why it's essential to use licensed professionals for all gas fitting, and why we take compliance and safety testing seriously on every job.

Pipe Relining

Pipe relining (also called trenchless pipe repair or "No-Dig" repair) is a method of repairing damaged or blocked drainage pipes without excavating the entire line. It's particularly useful where the damaged pipe runs beneath driveways, pathways, established gardens, or permanent structures, and where excavation would be costly or disruptive.

The process involves inserting a flexible, resin-saturated liner into the damaged pipe through an access point (usually an existing inspection opening or a small excavation at one end). The liner is positioned to cover the damaged section, then inflated and cured using hot water, air, or UV light. Once cured, the liner hardens to form a seamless, structurally independent "pipe within a pipe" that restores full flow capacity and seals cracks, root entry points, or joint failures.

Pipe relining is effective for PVC, clay, terracotta, cast iron, and concrete pipes, provided the original pipe structure hasn't completely collapsed. It's commonly used to repair root intrusion, cracked joints, or corroded sections in older sewer lines. In Epping properties with established trees and aging terracotta drainage, relining is often the most cost-effective long-term solution because it seals the pipe and prevents future root regrowth.

We start with a CCTV CCTV check to confirm the pipe is suitable for relining (the pipe must retain enough structural integrity to support the liner). If relining is viable, we provide a quote for the work, including any preparatory clearing or root cutting required. The relining process typically takes a day, depending on the length and access, and the relined section is ready for use within hours of curing.

Once complete, we run the camera through again to verify the liner is correctly positioned and the pipe is fully sealed. The relined section is backed by our workmanship warranty, and the liner itself carries a long service life (typically decades) when installed correctly.

Roof and Gutter Installations

Your roofing and guttering system channels stormwater away from the property to prevent water damage to walls, foundations, and landscaping. Common issues include blocked gutters (from leaf litter and debris), rusted or corroded guttering, loose or damaged downpipes, and leaking roof penetrations (around vents, skylights, or flashing).

We provide roof plumbing services including gutter clearing, gutter and downpipe replacement, roof leak detection and repair, and installation of new guttering for extensions or renovations. For blocked gutters, we remove the debris, flush the system to confirm flow, and check that downpipes are clear and properly connected to stormwater drainage.

Leaking gutters often result from rust holes, failed joints, or improper fall (the gutter should slope slightly toward the downpipe to allow water to drain). We assess the condition of the existing guttering and recommend repair or replacement depending on the extent of the damage. For full gutter replacement, we measure and fabricate new sections onsite using Colorbond steel or Zincalume, and we install them with the correct fall and secure brackets.

Roof leaks can be harder to trace because water often travels along rafters or sarking before appearing inside the property. We use a combination of visual inspection, water testing, and thermal imaging to locate the entry point, then repair or replace the affected flashing, sealant, or roofing material. Once the repair is complete, we test the area under simulated rain conditions to confirm the leak has been resolved.

Regular gutter clearing (typically once or twice a year, depending on tree coverage) reduces the risk of overflow, water damage, and pest nesting. If you're unsure when your gutters were last cleared, it's worth arranging an inspection, especially before the wet season.

Plumbing FAQ's in Epping

The process of hiring a plumber can be stressful, especially when you're dealing with an urgent issue. To help you make an informed decision, we've answered the questions Epping residents ask most frequently. If your question isn't covered below, our phone line is always open.

Should I attempt a DIY repair or hire a properly licensed plumbing technician?

Minor issues like replacing a tap washer might seem straightforward, but plumbing work often involves hidden complexities (such as water pressure, compliance, or access to concealed pipes) that aren't obvious until you start. DIY repairs can void warranties on appliances or property insurance, and some work (such as gas fitting or drainage alterations) is legally required to be performed by licensed professionals. If you're unsure, a quick assessment by a properly licensed plumbing specialist confirms what's required and whether it's safe to proceed.

What affects the cost of plumbing work in Epping?

The cost depends on the scope of work, access to the problem area, parts required, and time on site. For example, clearing a simple kitchen sink blockage is less expensive than relining a collapsed sewer line beneath a driveway. We provide a fixed-fee quote once the scope is confirmed on site onsite, so you know the cost before work starts. The price quoted is the price paid, with no hidden costs or hourly rate surprises.

What plumbing services do you provide in Epping?

We handle blocked drains and sewer repairs, hot water system repairs and installations, gas fitting and leak detection, ruptured pipe repairs, leaking taps and fixtures, toilet and bathroom installations, CCTV drain inspections, drain relining, roof and gutter work, and water filter installations. If it involves water, gas, or drainage, we can assess it and provide a solution.

Do you provide free quotes in Epping?

All jobs in the 2121 postcode require an onsite assessment to confirm the scope and provide an accurate fixed-price quote. We don't provide quotes over the phone because it's impossible to assess the full situation without inspecting the impacted area. When booking, confirm the call-out fee status for your suburb; for many service areas, there's no call-out fee.

What does a plumber actually do during an assessment?

A plumber identifies the fault, confirms the affected area, checks access and existing pipework, and explains what's required to resolve the issue. For drainage, that might involve running a CCTV camera to locate a blockage. For hot water, it might involve testing the thermostat and pressure relief valve. Once the assessment is complete, we provide a fixed-price quote and explain what's included before any work starts.

How do I fix a running toilet?

A running toilet usually indicates a faulty flush valve, damaged cistern seal, or incorrectly adjusted overflow pipe. While it's possible to replace these components yourself, it's easy to misdiagnose the issue or install the wrong part. If you're not confident, contact us to assess the toilet and confirm what's required. We carry common replacement parts and can usually resolve the issue on the same visit.

What's involved in fixing a leaking shower?

A leaking shower can involve a faulty tap cartridge, damaged grout or sealant, or a leak behind the wall from a cracked pipe or failed waterproofing membrane. We start by identifying where the water is escaping, then explain the repair options. Simple tap leaks can be resolved quickly; structural leaks behind tiles require more invasive work and a separate quote. Leak detection using electronic equipment helps us pinpoint the source without unnecessary demolition.

Do you service the entire Epping area?

Yes, we service all properties in the 2121 postcode, and we dispatch from local hubs across Sydney including West Sydney. We've completed plumbing work throughout the broader Sydney region, and Epping is well within our standard service area. Same-day service is available for most bookings when you contact us early.

Can you clear blocked drains in Epping?

Yes, we have a team of licensed plumbers trained in blocked drain diagnostics and clearing. We use CCTV cameras to locate the blockage, then clear it using hydro jetting or mechanical cutting depending on the cause. If the blockage is caused by structural damage (such as root intrusion or collapsed pipe), we explain the options and provide a quote for relining or excavation.

How quickly can you attend an emergency in Epping?

For emergencies, we dispatch the nearest available licensed plumber (NSW) immediately and provide an ETA when you book. Urgent jobs are sent out first, and arrival timing depends on current bookings and traffic conditions. For non-urgent work, we can schedule an assessment at a time that suits your access requirements. If you're unsure whether your situation is urgent, a quick call is enough to confirm priority.
