Plumbing FAQ's in Horsley Park
These are practical plumbing questions we regularly hear from Horsley Park residents, landlords, and local businesses. Each answer is general information and the right fix still depends on what is found onsite, because access and existing pipework change the scope. If you have an active leak, sewage backup, or a gas smell, arrange an urgent visit so the system can be checked and made safe.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
Most plumbing and gas work in Horsley Park should be handled by a licensed and insured plumber (NSW), because mistakes can lead to water damage, ongoing leaks, or non-compliant work. Fixed Today Plumbing sends licensed NSW technicians, and the job is assessed onsite before a fixed price is provided. If inspection shows the issue is more complex than it first looked, options are explained and quoted once scope is clarified.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing costs in Horsley Park depend on the confirmed scope, reaching the pipework, parts required, and whether the job is after-hours. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, transparent pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you see the full price before work starts. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued, and there are no hidden costs.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides general domestic and commercial plumbing services in Horsley Park, including blocked drains, leak repairs, burst pipe repairs, hot water supply system work, and licensed gas fitting. The exact work completed depends on what is found during the initial assessment, because similar symptoms can have different causes. Once the fault is confirmed, a fixed price quote is provided before any work begins.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, most jobs in Horsley Park are quoted after an onsite assessment, because accurate pricing depends on access, the fault location, and what parts are required. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the scope first, then provides a fixed-price quote before starting work. If the inspection shows additional work is needed, the options are explained clearly and quoted once the scope is confirmed.
What do Plumbers do?
Plumbers install, repair, and maintain water, drainage, and waste systems in homes and businesses. In practice, that includes fixing leaks, clearing drains, repairing toilets and taps, installing hot water systems, and carrying out drainage repairs. Some jobs also involve regulated gas fitting, which must be completed by a licensed gas fitter and tested before being put back into service.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A toilet that keeps running usually means a component inside the cistern is not sealing correctly, and it can waste a lot of water over time. A plumber can assess what has failed and repair or replace the parts, then confirm the toilet shuts off properly. If the toilet is overflowing or causing water damage, arrange an urgent visit so it can be made safe.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower in a Horsley Park home often needs prompt attention because ongoing moisture can damage waterproofing, cabinetry, and walls. The correct repair depends on where the water is escaping, so an onsite check is needed before pricing. Once the cause is confirmed, Fixed Today Plumbing provides a fixed price quote and completes the repair, then checks the shower is functioning properly.
Do you service the entire Horsley Park area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Horsley Park 2175 as part of our coverage across all Sydney metropolitan regions, including South Western Sydney. For emergencies, we have the capacity to service up to a 60km radius from base hubs, and jobs are allocated from localised dispatch points across Sydney.

Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Horsley Park, and the method depends on what is causing the restriction and the condition of the pipework. CCTV drain camera inspection is often used to locate the blockage and confirm whether the pipe is damaged. Once the cause is confirmed, the job is quoted at a fixed price before work starts, and flow is checked before leaving.
