Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Lavender Bay?

Blocked drains in Lavender Bay often need proper diagnosis because the fastest fix depends on where the restriction sits and what the pipe is made of. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the affected fixtures and access on arrival, checks the line using the latest technology including CCTV inspection equipment and high-pressure jetters, then provides fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour) before any work starts.

If you are dealing with repeated overflows or slow drainage at a property in Lavender Bay, it is usually a sign something is building up or catching inside the pipe. What typically happens is the problem gets worse over time, until water starts backing up and you are forced to stop using a sink, shower or toilet.

Fixed Today Plumbing follows a clear process so you can decide with the facts in front of you:

  • Diagnosis: a detailed onsite assessment using specialised diagnostic tools
  • Upfront Quote: provision of a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before work starts
  • Completion: repair or clearing completed to Australian Standards
  • Verification: testing of the system and site cleanup to confirm the result prior to leaving

We also handle related plumbing work in the area, including:

  • Plumbing renovations and rough-ins
  • Pipe relining (no-dig where suitable)
  • Sewer and stormwater drain unblocking
  • Electronic leak detection for hidden bursts
  • Floor waste and basement drain overflows

Professional Blocked Drain Solutions in Lavender Bay

Blocked drains in Lavender Bay are usually resolved by finding the exact location of the restriction, clearing it safely, then checking the line is flowing as it should. This covers most common household drainage problems in accessible pipework. If inspection shows the pipe is damaged or collapsed, the options are explained and quoted once the scope is confirmed.

A drain often gives you a few warnings before it stops completely. On first inspection, the most common signs are slow drainage, gurgling sounds, or water returning through a floor waste. Leaving it too long can lead to overflows and water damage because the pipe has nowhere left to send the water.

In plumbing, the usual causes are grease build-up in kitchen lines, foreign objects, or roots entering a joint in an older run of pipe. A pattern we notice is that kitchens often clog gradually, then fail suddenly when the remaining opening finally blocks over.

Lavender Bay properties can have very different access points, especially where drainage runs under floors, through basements, or via shared areas. If there are strata rules or restricted available access windows, tell us when booking so we can plan the visit and bring the right equipment.

Pricing is fixed and confirmed before work begins. The final figure depends on what the inspection finds, how easy it is to reach the pipe, and whether specialist methods are needed to protect the line while clearing the blockage.

Fixed, upfront pricing you can approve first

A blocked drain is priced by the job, not by the hour. The scope is defined onsite and a fixed-price quote is provided before work starts, backed by our Fixed Price Guarantee (the price quoted is the price paid). Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued.

800+ verified reviews across Sydney

Fixed Today Plumbing has a near-perfect 5-star rating based on 800+ verified customer reviews. That review history reflects day-to-day work across Sydney suburbs, including drainage faults that need clear explanations and tidy finishes.

24/7 emergency help and same-day availability

Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 Emergency support for residential and commercial clients. For urgent drainage problems, we arrange immediate dispatch and allocate the nearest available licensed plumbing technician from localised dispatch points across Sydney, with ETA updates where possible.

Licensed, insured, and accountable

Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting (NSW Licensed Plumber, Drainer & Gasfitter - 305428C). The business is comprehensively insured, with active insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation). Public Liability helps protect you if accidental property damage occurs during the job, and Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries on site.

Drain unblocking services

Drain unblocking services in Lavender Bay focus on restoring flow and confirming what caused the blockage, so it is less likely to return. This generally covers sinks, showers, toilets and main sewer lines within the property boundary, where access is available. If a camera inspection indicates structural failure, repair options are explained and priced once the affected section is confirmed.

In established residential plumbing, the most common blockage sources include:

  • Poor waste management
  • Hair or small objects lodged in the shower drain
  • Accumulation of grease and fat
  • Invasive underground tree roots

Once a line is restricted, pressure and overflow risks rise because water has fewer paths to escape. The usual sequence is a slow drain first, then occasional bubbling, then a full blockage during heavy use.

Fixed Today Plumbing uses CCTV drain cameras to confirm what is happening inside the pipe and high-pressure water jetting to clear debris. For accurate locating where needed, we also use electric pipe locators so the right section is addressed without guesswork.

After clearing, we verify flow and function before packing up. If the blockage is a symptom of damage, you will be shown what was found and the next steps are quoted clearly before any additional work proceeds.

Burst Pipe Plumbers

A broken pipe at a Lavender Bay property needs fast isolation and a proper assessment because water can spread quickly through walls, floors, and cabinetry. Fixed Today Plumbing handles broken pipe repairs and water leak location across Sydney, with immediate dispatch available for emergencies. If the inspection shows a repair can be completed without excavation, options like drain relining may be suitable once the damaged section is confirmed.

From similar jobs, the first clues are often indirect. A sudden drop in pressure, unexplained wet patches, or a higher than normal water bill can point to a hidden leak that has been running for a while.

Fixed Today Plumbing uses Electronic Ultrasonic Leak Detection to help locate hidden bursts, then completes repairs to Australian plumbing standards. Where trenchless repair is appropriate, trenchless pipe lining technology can repair certain underground failures with less disruption than full replacement.

If you need documentation for a landlord, strata, or property manager, we provide receipts and invoices suitable for agents and business records. And once the repair is completed, we test and verify outcomes before leaving.

Emergency Blocked Drains

An emergency drain blockage in Lavender Bay is any blockage that is overflowing, backing up into the home, or stopping you from using essential plumbing. Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency services and arranges immediate dispatch, allocating the nearest available technician from our localised dispatch points across Sydney. Once onsite, the cause is confirmed and a flat-rate quote is provided before work begins.

Backups are disruptive. The priority is stopping damage, restoring flow, and confirming whether the issue is a simple obstruction or something more serious in the line.

We keep arrival communication clear, including ETA updates where possible. If there is an urgent safety risk, we can provide brief safety-first guidance by phone while the plumber is on the way, without asking you to diagnose the fault.

After the system is made safe and flowing again, we check performance before leaving. If access is restricted due to building rules or booking windows, we work around those constraints when they are disclosed at the time of booking.

Gas Fitting

Gas fitting work in Lavender Bay should be completed by a NSW licensed gas fitter because the job must be made safe, tested, and documented where required. Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting (NSW Licensed Plumber, Drainer & Gasfitter - 305428C). This covers gas leak detection, appliance connections, and new gas connections, with scope confirmed before quoting.

Gas faults are time-sensitive because even a small leak can create risk inside a home or commercial space. If you can smell gas, arrange an assessment so the system can be checked and made safe.

We cater to a comprehensive assortment of gas services:

  • Gas repairs
  • Connecting primary gas lines
  • Setting up new gas points
  • Fixing gas leakages

Work is completed to applicable Australian Standards and safety requirements. Where required, compliance documentation is provided for regulated work, and we confirm the system is operating correctly before leaving.

Hot Water Servicing

Hot water servicing in Lavender Bay covers fault-finding, repairs, and replacements for gas, electric, and solar systems. Fixed Today Plumbing works on common household brands such as Rheem, Dux, and Rinnai, with manufacturer warranties applying to hardware and appliances. If inspection shows the unit is at end of life or unsafe, replacement options are explained and quoted once the installation details are confirmed.

What often happens is a system starts failing in small ways before it stops completely. You might notice temperature swings, running out of hot water faster than normal, or noisy operation from a storage unit.

We are available 24/7 for urgent hot water service problems, and same-day service is available for standard enquiries. Once onsite, we confirm the cause, explain the practical options in plain English, then provide fixed, transparent pricing before proceeding.

All work is completed to meet Australian Standards, and the site is left tidy. Where a new unit is installed, we test operation before leaving so you are not guessing whether it is working properly.

Blocked Drain FAQ's in Lavender Bay

These answers cover the most common clogged drain questions we hear from Lavender Bay residents and property managers. Each situation is confirmed onsite because access, pipe materials, and where the blockage sits will change the method and the fixed-price quote.

What causes blocked drains in Lavender Bay?

Blocked drains in Lavender Bay are most often caused by build-up inside the pipe, or something catching and narrowing the line over time. Common sources include kitchen grease, hair in bathroom lines, foreign objects, and tree roots entering joints. The exact cause is confirmed onsite, because the safest clearing method depends on the pipe condition and access.

Do you use CCTV cameras to find a drain blockage?

Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing uses high-definition CCTV drain cameras to diagnose many drain blockage problems. A CCTV inspection helps confirm where the restriction is and what is causing it, which avoids guesswork. If access to the line is limited, the inspection approach may change, and the options are explained before any further work proceeds.

What happens on the first visit for a blocked drain?

The first visit for a drain blockage in Lavender Bay is focused on confirming the affected fixtures, checking access to inspection points, and diagnosing the cause using suitable tools. Once the scope is clear, you are given fixed, upfront pricing before we begin. If the inspection shows pipe damage, repair options are explained and quoted once confirmed.

Is a blocked drain an emergency?

A drain blockage is treated as an emergency when it is overflowing, backing up into the home, or creating a hygiene risk that stops you using essential plumbing. Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing support and arranges immediate dispatch for urgent situations. If it is not actively overflowing, same-day service is often available, depending on bookings.

What affects the price to clear a blocked drain in Lavender Bay?

The price to clear a drain blockage depends on what is blocking the line, how far into the pipe the restriction sits, and how easy it is to access the right inspection point. It can also change if a CCTV shows structural damage that needs repair. Fixed Today Plumbing provides fixed, upfront pricing before starting work, so you can approve the job first.

Do you charge a call-out fee in Lavender Bay?

Fixed Today Plumbing has no call-out fee for many service areas, and suburb pages can vary. For Lavender Bay bookings, the best approach is to confirm call-out fee details when you schedule the visit, before a technician is sent. Regardless of call-out policy, you will still receive a fixed-fee quote before any work starts.

Are you licensed and insured for clogged drain work?

Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing is duly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting (NSW Licensed Plumber, Drainer & Gasfitter - 305428C) and the business is fully insured. Public Liability helps protect you if accidental property damage occurs during work, and Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries on site. All attending technicians are licensed and insured plumbers in NSW.

Can blocked drains damage my property?

Yes, blocked drains can cause property damage because water can overflow into floors, walls, and cabinetry once the pipe cannot carry flow away. That can also create odour and hygiene issues, especially if sewage is involved. If you are seeing repeated backups or overflow, arrange an inspection so the cause can be confirmed and cleared before damage spreads.
