Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Forest Lodge?

Fixed Today Plumbing provides licensed plumbing, drainage, and gas fitting services across Forest Lodge and the broader Inner West, dispatching from local hubs including West Sydney to ensure quick arrival. For urgent plumbing situations, we offer immediate dispatch and same-day availability, with arrival timing confirmed when you book. We've been operating in Sydney for over 15 years, backed by full Public Liability and Workers Compensation insurance, and all work is completed by NSW licensed plumbers (Licence 305428C).

Forest Lodge sits close to Sydney's CBD, with a mix of Victorian-era terraces, Federation homes, and more recent apartment developments. Older properties in the area often have original terracotta or cast iron drainage, which can be prone to root intrusion and structural wear. We've completed hundreds of drainage and pipe repairs across the Inner West, so we're familiar with the access constraints, parking realities, and property layouts common to Forest Lodge streets.

Our process is straightforward: we assess the situation onsite, confirm the scope, provide a flat-rate quote before starting work, and test the outcome before leaving. All workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, and we keep the work area tidy throughout. If you need a licensed and insured plumbing technician in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338 or enquire online.

24/7 Emergency Dispatch

For urgent plumbing situations, we offer immediate dispatch from local hubs including West Sydney. An ETA is provided when you book, and we keep you updated throughout.

Fully Licensed & Insured

All attending technicians are licensed plumbers in NSW (Licence 305428C). We carry full Public Liability insurance (protection if accidental property damage occurs) and Workers Compensation cover.

Hot Water Systems

When a hot water unit fails in Forest Lodge, the priority is restoring reliable hot water supply with minimal disruption. Fixed Today Plumbing handles installation, repair, and replacement for all major brands including Rheem, Dux, and Rinnai, covering electric storage, continuous flow gas, and heat pump systems across domestic and commercial properties.

Common hot water faults include fluctuating temperatures (often caused by failing thermostat or sediment buildup), rust-coloured water in the morning (indicating sacrificial anode corrosion), or no hot water at all (element failure in electric systems or burner issues in gas units). We assess the system onsite, confirm whether repair or replacement is the right approach, and explain the options in plain English before quoting.

All hot water installations in NSW must comply with AS/NZS 3500 standards, which includes mandatory Tempering Valves (limiting tap temperature to 50°C to prevent scalding) and Pressure Relief Valves (preventing tank over-pressurization). Our licensed plumbers ensure every installation meets these requirements, and we test the system before leaving to confirm safe operation and correct flow.

If replacement is needed, we explain the differences between system types; electric storage offers lower upfront cost, continuous flow gas provides energy efficiency and space savings, and heat pumps reduce running costs over time. The choice depends on your property setup, household size, and budget. Once the scope is confirmed, we provide a fixed-price quote covering supply, installation, compliance, and disposal of the old unit where required.

Hot water system work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship, plus standard manufacturer warranties on the unit itself. If you're dealing with no hot water service or unreliable supply in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338 to arrange an assessment.

Blocked Drains

A drain blockage in Forest Lodge typically starts with slow drainage in sinks or showers, progressing to gurgling sounds, unpleasant odours, or water backing up entirely. In older Inner West properties with terracotta or cast iron drainage, blockages often trace back to tree root intrusion (roots enter hairline cracks seeking moisture) or structural pipe deterioration. In kitchen lines, fat, oil, and grease solidify as they cool, narrowing the pipe and trapping solid waste.

We begin every clogged drain job with a high-definition CCTV drain camera inspection, which allows us to see the blockage type, depth, and exact location without invasive digging. Once the cause is identified, we select the clearing method that restores flow without damaging the pipework. For root masses and grease buildup, high-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting at 3,000, 5,000 PSI) pulverizes obstructions and scours the pipe walls clean. For foreign objects or specific metal blockages, mechanical clearing tools may be used.

If the CCTV inspection reveals structural damage, collapsed sections, offset joints, or severe root penetration—we explain the options and confirm scope before proceeding. In many cases, trenchless pipe relining can repair the damaged section without excavating driveways, bathrooms, or established landscaping. This involves inserting a resin-saturated liner into the existing pipe, which is then cured to form a seamless, structurally independent pipe-within-a-pipe.

Drainage work in Forest Lodge falls under Sydney Water's jurisdiction, and compliance certificates are issued where required. All work is completed to Australian Standards, and we test flow and function before leaving. If you're dealing with a blocked drain, slow drainage, or recurring blockages, call 1800 349 338 or enquire online for blocked drain clearing.

Leaking Taps

A dripping tap wastes water, increases bills over time, and often signals a worn washer, deteriorated O-ring, or faulty cartridge inside the tap body. The persistent drip-drip sound is disruptive, and if left unaddressed, the leak can worsen and cause damage to surrounding fixtures or benchtops.

Fixed Today Plumbing repairs all tap types including mixer taps, separate hot and cold taps, and sensor-operated models. We assess the tap onsite, identify the failing component, and explain whether repair or replacement is the right approach. In many cases, a washer or cartridge replacement restores the tap to full function. If the tap body is corroded or the internal threads are damaged, replacement may be more cost-effective than repair.

We carry common tap parts and replacement units in our fully stocked vehicles, so most leaking tap repairs can be completed on the first visit. Once the repair is done, we test the tap under normal operating pressure to confirm the leak is resolved and there are no secondary issues. All workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty.

If you're dealing with a leaking tap in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338 to arrange a repair. The sooner it's fixed, the less water you waste and the lower your bill stays.

Roof & Gutter Repairs

Leaking gutters or roof plumbing in Forest Lodge can lead to water damage inside the property, staining on ceilings and walls, or structural issues if water penetrates the building envelope. In older terraces and Federation homes, original guttering may be rusted, undersized for current rainfall intensity, or improperly pitched, causing water to pool and overflow.

We assess the roof plumbing system onsite, checking for leaks at joints, damaged downpipes, blocked gutter sections, or faulty flashing around penetrations like vents and chimneys. If the issue is a blockage (leaf litter, debris, or sediment buildup), we clear the obstruction and test flow. If structural damage is present, rusted sections, split joints, or sagging gutters, we explain the repair options and provide a fixed-price quote once scope is clarified.

Roof and gutter work requires safe access, appropriate fall protection, and an understanding of how water flows across the roof surface. We use drop sheets and protective coverings to protect landscaping and paved areas below the work zone, and we clean up debris before leaving. All repairs are completed to Australian Standards, and we test the system under simulated flow conditions where practical.

If you're seeing water stains, overflow during rain, or visible gutter damage in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338 to arrange an inspection. Early intervention reduces the risk of internal water damage and costly structural repairs.

Shower Repairs

Shower issues in Forest Lodge properties range from leaking shower heads and mixer taps to low water pressure, temperature fluctuations, or water pooling due to blocked waste outlets. In older homes, original shower plumbing may include outdated fixtures, corroded pipework, or inadequate waterproofing behind tiles, which can lead to concealed leaks and structural damage over time.

We assess the shower system onsite, checking for visible leaks, testing water pressure at the shower head, and inspecting the waste outlet for blockages or poor drainage. If the issue is a failing washer, cartridge, or shower head, we repair or replace the component and test under normal operating conditions. If low pressure is present, we trace the cause, often a partially closed isolating valve, sediment buildup in the mixer, or undersized supply pipework.

For concealed leaks behind tiles or inside the shower base, we use electronic leak detection methods to locate the source without unnecessary demolition. Once the leak is found, we explain the repair approach and confirm scope before proceeding. All shower repairs are completed to AS/NZS 3500 standards, and we test the system before leaving to confirm correct flow, temperature control, and drainage.

If you're dealing with a leaking shower, inconsistent temperature, or poor water pressure in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338 to arrange an assessment.

Toilet Repairs

Toilet faults in Forest Lodge include continuous running after flushing (indicating a faulty flapper valve or fill valve), weak flush (caused by blocked rim jets or incorrect cistern water level), or complete blockages that prevent flushing entirely. In older properties, original ceramic pans and cisterns may have worn internal components, and the flush mechanism may no longer meet modern water efficiency standards.

We assess the toilet onsite, checking the cistern internals, testing flush performance, and inspecting the waste outlet for blockages or restrictions. If the issue is a worn flapper, fill valve, or flush button, we replace the component and adjust the water level to restore correct operation. If the blockage is in the pan trap or waste line, we clear it using appropriate tools and test the flush to confirm normal flow.

For recurring blockages or chronic flushing issues, we investigate further using CCTV drain camera inspection to check for restrictions in the waste line, tree root intrusion, or structural damage. Once the cause is identified, we explain the options and provide a fixed-fee quote before proceeding with repairs.

If replacement is needed, due to cracked ceramic, obsolete parts, or inefficient water use, we supply and install modern dual-flush models that meet WELS (Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards) requirements. All toilet repairs and installations are completed to AS/NZS 3500 standards, and we test the system before leaving. If you're dealing with a running toilet, weak flush, or blockage in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338.

Gas Fitting

Gas fitting work in Forest Lodge includes new gas appliance installations (cooktops, ovens, hot water systems, heating), gas leak detection and repair, and gas line extensions or upgrades. All gas work in NSW must be performed by a fully licensed gas fitter and comply with AS/NZS 5601.1 safety standards. Fixed Today Plumbing holds full gas fitting accreditation (Licence 305428C), and we issue compliance certificates for all regulated gas work.

Gas leaks are a safety priority. The distinctive "rotten egg" odour (added mercaptan) is the most obvious warning sign, but leaks can also present as hissing sounds near appliances, dying vegetation over underground lines, or unusual soot buildup on burners. If you suspect a gas leak, turn off the gas supply at the meter if safe to do so, ventilate the area, do not operate electrical switches, and call a licensed gas fitter immediately.

We use combustible gas detectors and thermal imaging to locate leaks behind walls, under floors, or in concealed pipework. Once the leak is found, we isolate the affected section, repair or replace the faulty component, and conduct a pressure loss test to confirm the system is gas-tight before recommissioning. All repaired or altered gas installations must pass this test to meet safety standards.

For new gas appliance installations, we assess the existing gas supply capacity, confirm the appliance is compatible with the available gas type (natural gas or LPG), and install the appliance with correct isolation valving and compliance labelling. We test the appliance for correct operation and issue a compliance certificate where required.

If you need gas fitting services in Forest Lodge, whether it's a new appliance, a suspected leak, or a gas line upgrade, call 1800 349 338 to arrange an assessment.

Burst & Leaking Pipes

A burst or leaking pipe in Forest Lodge can cause significant water damage in a short time, affecting floors, walls, ceilings, and belongings. Burst pipes typically occur due to corrosion in older galvanised steel or copper pipework, mechanical damage during renovations, or sudden pressure surges in the water supply. In winter, exposed pipes in uninsulated roof spaces or external walls can freeze and burst when temperatures drop overnight.

If you discover a burst pipe, the main priority is isolating the water supply to stop further flooding. Locate the property's main water shutoff valve (usually near the water meter or inside the property boundary) and turn it off. Then call a NSW-licensed plumbing technician for immediate dispatch. Our team carries electronic leak detection equipment and pipe repair materials, so most burst pipe repairs can be completed on the first visit.

We assess the burst section onsite, confirm the extent of damage, and explain whether a localised repair or full pipe replacement is needed. For accessible pipework, we cut out the damaged section and install a new length of pipe with approved fittings. For concealed pipes inside walls or under floors, we use electronic ultrasonic leak detection to pinpoint the burst location and minimise demolition.

Once the repair is complete, we test the system under normal operating pressure to confirm the leak is resolved and there are no secondary weak points. We also check for signs of water damage and recommend drying or remediation where needed. All pipe repairs are completed to AS/NZS 3500 standards and backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty.

If you're dealing with a broken pipe or active water leak in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338 for immediate dispatch.

Strata Plumbing

Plumbing work in strata properties requires clear communication with strata managers, committee members, and residents, plus an understanding of lot versus common property boundaries. Fixed Today Plumbing provides strata plumbing services across Forest Lodge apartment buildings and multi-unit complexes, handling everything from individual lot repairs to common property drainage, hot water systems, and emergency callouts.

Common strata plumbing issues include blocked stacks (affecting multiple units), leaking common property pipework, shared hot water supply system failures, and drainage problems in basements or underground car parks. We respond promptly to strata callouts, assess the issue onsite, and confirm whether the fault is within an individual lot or common property before quoting. This boundary distinction is important for cost allocation and insurance claims.

For common property work, we provide documentation suitable for strata records, including scope of work, compliance certificates where required, and photos or CCTV footage showing the issue and the completed repair. We can coordinate access with building managers, work around resident schedules, and follow site induction or sign-in procedures where required.

All strata plumbing work is completed to meet Australian Standards and local building codes, and we provide clear invoicing suitable for strata accounting and levy recovery. If your strata building in Forest Lodge needs plumbing attention, whether it's an emergency callout or planned maintenance, call 1800 349 338 or enquire online for strata plumbing services.

General Plumbing

Fixed Today Plumbing handles all routine plumbing maintenance and repairs across Forest Lodge commercial and domestic properties. General plumbing services cover a wide range of tasks, including fixing leaks, replacing taps and fixtures, addressing toilet faults, repairing or replacing hot water systems, clearing blockages, and installing new plumbing fixtures.

We approach every job with the same process: assess the issue onsite, confirm the scope, provide a fixed-fee quote before starting work, complete the repair or installation to meet Australian Standards, and test the outcome before leaving. Our vehicles are fully stocked with common parts and replacement fixtures, so most general plumbing jobs can be completed on the first visit without return trips or delays.

For property owners and landlords, we provide documentation suitable for rental records and agent reporting. For businesses, we can schedule work around operating hours to minimise disruption. All general plumbing work is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship, plus standard manufacturer warranties on supplied parts and fixtures.

If you need a fully duly licensed plumbing technician in Forest Lodge for routine maintenance, repairs, or new installations, call 1800 349 338 or enquire online for general plumbing services.

Emergency Plumbing

Plumbing emergencies don't follow a schedule. Burst pipes, gas leaks, major blockages, and flooding can happen at any time, and the damage escalates quickly if not addressed. Fixed Today Plumbing offers 24/7 emergency plumbing services across Forest Lodge, with immediate dispatch for urgent situations and an ETA provided when you book.

When you call for emergency plumbing, we prioritise the callout based on the risk level. Situations involving active flooding, gas leaks, or complete loss of water or sewerage are sent out first, with the nearest available technician allocated from our local dispatch hubs. We keep you updated on arrival timing and confirm the technician's ETA as they travel to your property.

Our emergency plumbers carry diagnostic equipment, pipe repair materials, and common replacement parts, so most urgent repairs can be completed onsite to make the property safe and restore function. If the full repair requires parts or access that aren't immediately available, we implement a temporary solution to stop the damage and schedule a return visit to complete the permanent fix.

Emergency callout pricing is clearly explained when you book, and we provide a fixed-price quote for the repair work once scope is established onsite. All emergency repairs are backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship. If you're dealing with a plumbing emergency in Forest Lodge, call 1800 349 338 now for immediate dispatch.

Commercial Plumbing

Commercial plumbing help in Forest Lodge covers offices, retail premises, cafes, restaurants, and light industrial sites. Commercial plumbing systems operate under higher demand than residential properties, with more fixtures, larger hot water requirements, and stricter compliance obligations including backflow prevention, grease trap maintenance, and Workplace Health and Safety standards.

Fixed Today Plumbing provides commercial plumbing services including clogged drain clearing, hot water unit installation and repair, gas fitting for commercial kitchens, backflow prevention device testing, and emergency callouts to minimise business downtime. We understand that plumbing faults in commercial settings can disrupt operations, affect staff and customers, and create safety risks, so we prioritise fast response and efficient resolution.

We can schedule work outside business hours to avoid disruption, provide documentation suitable for compliance records and insurance claims, and coordinate with building managers or facility teams where required. All commercial plumbing work is completed to AS/NZS 3500 standards, relevant workplace safety regulations, and local council requirements.

If your business in Forest Lodge needs commercial plumbing support, whether it's planned maintenance, an urgent repair, or a new installation, call 1800 349 338 or enquire online for commercial plumbing services.

Plumbing FAQ's in Forest Lodge

Below are answers to common questions we receive from Forest Lodge residents and businesses. If your question isn't covered here, call 1800 349 338 and we'll answer it directly.

Should I attempt plumbing repairs myself or hire a licensed and fully insured plumber?

DIY plumbing can void warranties, create safety risks, and lead to non-compliant work that fails building inspections. In NSW, most plumbing work must be completed by a licensed plumbing technician to meet legal and insurance requirements. If you're unsure whether a job requires a plumber, a quick call can confirm the right approach.

How much does plumbing work cost in Forest Lodge?

Plumbing costs depend on scope, access, parts required, and time on site. We provide a fixed price quote based on confirmed scope before starting work, so you know the cost upfront. The price is by the job, not by the hour, and there are no hidden fees added at the end.

What plumbing services do you provide in Forest Lodge?

We handle blocked drains, hot water systems, leaking pipes and taps, roof and gutter repairs, shower and toilet repairs, gas fitting, ruptured pipe repairs, strata plumbing, general maintenance, emergency callouts, and commercial plumbing. If it's plumbing, drainage, or gas fitting, we can help.

Do you provide quotes over the phone or do you need to visit the property?

Most jobs in Forest Lodge require an onsite assessment to confirm scope accurately. We inspect the issue, explain the options, and provide a flat-rate quote before starting work. This ensures the quote reflects the actual situation and there are no surprises later.

What does a licensed and fully insured plumber actually do?

Licensed plumbers install, repair, and maintain water supply systems, drainage, sewerage, hot water systems, gas appliances, and roof plumbing. In NSW, plumbers must hold a licence issued by NSW Fair Trading, and all work must comply with AS/NZS 3500 standards and local regulations.

How do I stop my toilet from running continuously?

A running toilet usually indicates a faulty flapper valve or fill valve inside the cistern. If turning off the isolation tap behind the toilet stops the running, the issue is internal. Call a licensed plumbing technician to replace the worn component and restore correct operation.

Can you repair a leaking shower head or mixer tap?

Yes. Most leaking showers are caused by worn washers, cartridges, or O-rings inside the mixer or shower head. We assess the tap onsite, identify the failing part, and repair or replace it. The repair is tested under normal pressure to confirm the leak is resolved.

Do you service the entire Forest Lodge area?

Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing services all of Forest Lodge (postcode 2037) and the broader Sydney metropolitan area. We dispatch from local hubs including West Sydney, and we can travel up to 60 km from base for emergency callouts.

Can you clear blocked drains in Forest Lodge?

Yes. We use CCTV inspection equipment to locate the blockage, then clear it using high-pressure water jetting or mechanical tools depending on the obstruction type. If structural damage is found, we explain the repair options and provide a fixed-price quote once the scope is confirmed.

How quickly can you respond to an emergency in Forest Lodge?

For urgent situations, we offer immediate dispatch from local hubs. An ETA is provided when you book, and we keep you updated if traffic or job sequencing affects arrival timing. Urgent jobs involving flooding, gas leaks, or complete loss of service are prioritised and sent out first.
