Plumbing FAQ's in Killarney Heights
Plumbing decisions are easier when you know what will happen next and what affects cost and timing. These are practical questions we hear from Killarney Heights locals, with straightforward answers based on how licensed plumbing work is normally handled onsite.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For anything involving gas, drainage, concealed leaks, or changes to pipework, a licensed and insured plumbing technician is the safe option because the risks include property damage and non-compliant work. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the cause onsite and provides a fixed-fee quote before work starts. If the issue turns out to be bigger than the original symptom, options are explained and priced once scope is finalised.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing cost depends on what is actually required once the fault is confirmed, plus access, parts, and whether it is after-hours emergency work. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you can see the price before work starts. If findings change the scope, the next steps are explained and quoted before proceeding.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides general domestic and commercial plumbing services in Killarney Heights and across Sydney, including blocked drains, hot water unit work, leaking taps, burst pipes, roof and gutter leaks, and licensed gas fitting. The specific approach depends on what the onsite diagnosis shows. Once the scope is finalised, a flat-rate quote is provided before work starts.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, most jobs in Killarney Heights need an onsite assessment before a fixed price can be given, because access and pipe layout affect both scope and timing. Fixed Today Plumbing completes diagnosis first, then provides a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before work starts. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued, so you can make an informed decision.
What do Plumbers do?
A plumber installs, repairs, and maintains water, drainage, and in many cases gas systems in homes and businesses. That can include taps and toilets, hot water units, drain lines, and leak repairs. In NSW, gas and drainage work must be completed by properly licensed tradespeople. Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A running toilet usually indicates a fault inside the cistern or an issue affecting how the toilet refills and seals. Because the symptom can mask other problems, the safest option is to arrange an site assessment so the cause can be confirmed. Fixed Today Plumbing offers a fixed-price quote once the scope is clear, and verifies correct operation before leaving.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower should be assessed early because ongoing moisture can damage walls, floors, and cabinetry. The leak can come from the visible fittings, but it can also be behind the wall or under the floor, so it needs confirmation onsite. Fixed Today Plumbing investigates the cause, explains what is required in plain English, and provides a fixed-price quote before we start.
Do you service the entire Killarney Heights area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Killarney Heights (2087) as part of all Sydney metropolitan regions, including the North Shore. For emergency calls, there is capacity to service up to a 60km radius from base hubs. If access is restricted or the job is in strata, it helps to disclose entry and parking requirements at booking so attendance is planned correctly.
Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains and also handles sewer repairs, pipe relining, and CCTV inspections when needed. The technician first confirms where the restriction is and what caused it, then provides a fixed-price quote before clearing begins. If the inspection shows structural damage rather than a simple blockage, repair options are explained and quoted once the scope is confirmed.
