Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Kingsford?

Fixed Today Plumbing offers drain blockage unblocking and broader plumbing support across Kingsford, including properties in the Randwick City area. We confirm access and the affected fixtures on arrival because onsite conditions vary between freestanding homes, villas, and unit blocks. Emergency jobs are available 24/7, and standard plumbing and gas enquiries can usually be booked for service the same day.

A drain blockage is more than an inconvenience because rising water can overflow, damage finishes, and create hygiene issues. The usual sequence is straightforward: we inspect the line (often with CCTV for drain work), confirm what is actually blocked and where, then provide fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour) before any work starts. After clearing or repairing the line, we test flow and clean up the work area before leaving.

Fixed Today Plumbing is a family-owned and operated plumbing company with over 15+ years of service in the Sydney region. Jobs are completed by licensed technicians, and the business is fully insured, with current insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation). Public Liability insurance helps if accidental property damage occurs during work, and Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries on the job.

Many Kingsford customers call us for drainage, but the team also handles general plumbing and gas work across Sydney, including:

  • Blocked drains and sewers
  • Leaking taps and showerheads
  • Hot water system repairs
  • Toilet repairs and replacements
  • Gas fittings and installations

A pattern we notice on blocked drain jobs is that the first sign is often slow drainage and odours, but the actual restriction may be further down the line than expected. Grease build-up, foreign objects, and tree roots are common causes in Sydney, and inspection is the most direct way to confirm whether the fix is a standard clear or whether structural repair needs to be discussed and quoted once scope is finalised.

Blocked Drains Problem

Blocked drains in Kingsford usually mean wastewater cannot leave the property at the normal rate, so sinks, showers, or toilets may back up. Fixed Today Plumbing clears the blockage after confirming where the restriction is and what caused it. This covers typical internal and external drainage issues in accessible pipework, and if inspection shows damaged pipes, repair options are explained and quoted after scope is finalised.

What typically happens is the blockage starts small, then builds until water begins to pool or overflow. Kitchen lines often restrict due to grease and food waste, while toilets and main lines can block from paper build-up or foreign objects. Stormwater drains can also clog when debris washes in during rain.

For Kingsford drainage callouts, our standard approach is to locate the problem and clear it thoroughly, rather than just pushing water past it. That is why our plumbers commonly use tools such as:

  • High-pressure water jetting to scour debris and restore flow
  • CCTV drain inspections to confirm the blockage location and condition of the pipe
  • Electric pipe locators to help pinpoint buried lines when required

Once the blockage and access are confirmed onsite, you receive a fixed-fee quote before work starts, so you can decide with clear scope and no hidden costs. If the issue involves a collapsed section or a recurring fault, the next step is to talk through repair options, including less invasive methods where suitable for the pipe condition.

Honest, fixed upfront pricing

Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), which means the work is quoted after the scope is agreed onsite. The Fixed Price Guarantee (the price quoted is the price paid) is designed to reduce surprises when the job takes longer than expected or access is tighter than first assumed.

Verified reviews and long-term local service

Fixed Today Plumbing has a near-perfect 5-star rating based on 800+ verified customer reviews and has over 15+ years of service in the Sydney region. That track record matters on drainage work because repeat blockages are often linked to an underlying cause that needs proper inspection, not guesswork.

24/7 emergency support and clear arrival updates

Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 Emergency support for residential and commercial clients, with immediate dispatch for emergencies and service the same day available for all standard plumbing and gas enquiries. Urgent jobs are sent out first, and we provide clear arrival communication, including ETA updates where possible, so you are not left wondering when help will arrive.

Licensed, insured, and identifiable technicians

Fixed Today Plumbing is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting (NSW Licensed Plumber, Drainer & Gasfitter - 305428C, ABN: 49 147 237 741) and the business is comprehensively insured, with current insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation). Public Liability insurance helps protect you if accidental property damage occurs during the work, and Workers Compensation relates to injuries on the job. Technicians arrive in uniform, confirm identity on arrival, and police checks and background checks are completed for technicians.

Burst Pipes

Burst pipes in Kingsford are urgent because ongoing water flow can damage floors, cabinetry, and walls quickly. Fixed Today Plumbing attends burst pipe jobs across Sydney day and night, starting with leak location and isolation where required, then confirming the repair method and fixed-price quote before the work begins. If inspection shows the damaged section cannot be reliably repaired, replacement or relining options are explained once scope is confirmed on site.

On first inspection, the most common clues are sudden loss of pressure, wet patches that spread, or water noise where it should be quiet. Age, movement, and existing weak joints can all contribute, and the exact cause is usually clearer once the pipe run is located and inspected.

Depending on the pipe material, access, and where the leak sits, repairs may involve targeted replacement, leak detection and repair, or trenchless solutions where suitable. Fixed Today Plumbing also offers no-dig drain relining for eligible pipes, which can reduce excavation when the existing pipe is structurally repairable rather than fully collapsed.

  • Leak detection and ruptured pipe repairs
  • Targeted pipe replacement where required
  • Leak detection and repair for difficult-to-locate water loss

For homes with finished surfaces or landscaped areas, we take reasonable care around tiles, timber floors, and garden edges, and we use protective covers in work zones where practical. You will also receive documentation suitable for landlords, agents, and business records when needed.

Emergency Drainage

Emergency drainage in Kingsford covers situations like sewage backflowing, an overflowing toilet, or a main line blockage that stops multiple fixtures at once. Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing support for commercial and residential clients, and emergencies receive immediate dispatch, with urgent jobs sent out first. Once onsite, the cause is confirmed and you receive a fixed price quote before any repair or clearing starts.

A drain backing up is disruptive. The goal is to restore flow safely, then confirm what caused the backup so it does not repeat. In practice, once flow is temporarily restored, camera inspection is often the fastest way to see whether the line is simply clogged or whether it is failing structurally and needs repair planning.

Arrival timing depends on current bookings, traffic conditions, and site access, especially where parking is limited or access requires coordination with strata or tenants. We provide clear arrival communication, including ETA updates where possible, and we confirm access permissions at the door before we start.

After the job, we test the drain function where practical and leave the area clean and tidy. Work is completed to applicable Australian Standards and safety requirements, and required documentation is provided where required for regulated work.

Gas Fitting

Gas fitting and installation in Kingsford should be completed by a fully licensed gas fitter because even small leaks or incorrect connections can create safety risks. Fixed Today Plumbing is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and gas work is handled by licensed technicians. The first visit focuses on confirming the appliance, the pipe run, and the scope required, then providing fixed, clear pricing before any work begins.

From the jobs we see across Sydney homes and small businesses, a common situation we encounter is that a gas issue is noticed as an odour, appliance shutdowns, or poor burner performance. The only safe way to respond is a proper assessment with the right equipment, followed by testing of the system once repairs or changes are completed.

Fixed Today Plumbing can assist with new gas points, leak detection, repairs, and new gas connections, where accessible and where the existing installation allows safe connection. Where regulated paperwork applies, compliance documentation is provided for the work completed.

We also support safety-sensitive requests. Technicians can identify themselves before entry, confirm identity on arrival, and we explain what we are doing in plain English before starting.

Hot Water

Hot water problems in Kingsford often come down to a failing system, a component fault, or an installation issue that shows up as temperature swings or no hot water at all. Fixed Today Plumbing repairs and installs hot water systems across Sydney, and the scope is confirmed on site onsite before you receive a fixed-price quote. If inspection shows the unit is at the end of its service life, replacement options are explained based on your household needs and available connections.

What often happens is the issue appears suddenly, but the underlying wear has been building for some time. Storage systems can deteriorate internally, and continuous flow units can shut down due to faults that only show up under load. An onsite check helps confirm whether repair is sensible or whether a replacement is the more reliable path.

Working with reputable brands such as:

  • Rheem
  • Dux
  • Vulcan
  • Aquamax
  • Thermann

Following our standard process, repair and installation work is completed to applicable Australian Standards and safety requirements. Where required, compliance documentation is provided, and the system is tested before leaving. We also take reasonable care around finishes and keep the work area tidy throughout the job.

Blocked Drain FAQ's in Kingsford

What are the common causes of blocked drains?

Blocked drains in Kingsford are commonly caused by grease and food waste in kitchen lines, paper and foreign objects in toilet lines, and debris entering outdoor drains. Tree roots can also intrude into small cracks in older pipework over time. The exact cause matters because it changes the right fix, so an onsite inspection is usually needed to confirm scope before quoting.

How can I prevent my drains from getting blocked?

Preventing blocked drains is mostly about what goes into the plumbing. Keep fats and oils out of sinks, avoid flushing wipes or sanitary items, and use simple strainers where appropriate to reduce hair and food waste entering the pipe. If your Kingsford property has a history of repeat blockages, a professional inspection can confirm whether there is an underlying pipe defect.

What should I do if my drain is blocked?

If a drain is blocked in Kingsford, limit water use in the affected area and arrange a duly licensed plumbing technician to inspect it, especially if there is overflow or sewage. Blockages can worsen quickly because pressure and backups build as other fixtures are used. Once onsite, the cause can be confirmed and a fixed-price quote provided before any clearing starts.

Can I use chemical drain cleaners to unblock my drains?

Chemical drain cleaners can damage pipes and fittings over time, and they can also make a professional repair messier and less safe if the line needs to be opened. If a Kingsford drain is slow or backing up, the safer option is an inspection and mechanical clearing method suited to the pipe condition. The right approach depends on what is actually blocking the line.

How do plumbers clear blocked drains?

Plumbers typically clear blocked drains by locating the restriction and removing it using the least disruptive method for the pipework. For many blockages, high-pressure water jetting is used to clear debris, and CCTV check helps confirm the blockage location and check pipe condition. If inspection shows structural damage, repair options are explained and quoted after scope is established.

What are the signs of a blocked drain?

Common signs of a drain blockage include slow drainage, gurgling sounds, unpleasant odours, and water backing up in sinks, showers, or toilets. In Kingsford, a key warning sign is when multiple fixtures are affected at once, which can indicate a main line restriction. If there is overflow or sewage, treat it as urgent and schedule an assessment.

Can blocked drains cause damage to my property?

Yes, blocked drains can cause property damage because backed-up water can overflow into bathrooms, kitchens, or external areas and soak walls and floors. Ongoing moisture can also lead to mould and deterioration of building materials. If a Kingsford drain is repeatedly blocking, an inspection can help confirm whether the issue is a recurring buildup problem or a pipe fault that needs repair.

How often should I have my drains inspected and cleaned?

Drain inspection frequency depends on how the system behaves at your property. If you have repeated blockages, strong odours, or slow drainage that returns soon after clearing, an inspection can help confirm the underlying cause and the most reliable fix. For properties without symptoms, many owners only book inspections when there is a practical reason, such as a recurring issue or a renovation.
