Plumbing FAQ's in Leets Vale
These are practical answers to common plumbing questions we hear from Leets Vale customers, especially during urgent callouts. Each answer explains what usually happens next and what affects price and timing, without guessing your exact cause before an on-site assessment.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
In most emergency situations, hiring a fully licensed NSW plumber is the safer option because leaks, sewer overflows, and gas issues can cause property damage quickly. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the fault onsite in Leets Vale, explains the scope in plain English, then provides fixed, upfront pricing before work starts. If the issue is minor, the assessment still helps prevent repeat failures.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing costs vary based on the scope, access, parts required, and whether the job is urgent or after-hours. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you receive a fixed-price quote before work starts and the Fixed Price Guarantee means the price quoted is the price paid. Ask when booking if a call-out fee applies for Leets Vale.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides domestic and commercial plumbing across Sydney, including Leets Vale. Common work includes blocked drains, sewer repairs, pipe relining, CCTV inspections, hot water service repairs and installs, burst pipe and leak fixes, and licensed gas fitting. The exact approach depends on what is found onsite, and options are explained once the fault and access are confirmed.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing offers an on-site assessment in Leets Vale before quoting because plumbing faults often look similar until tested properly. The technician confirms the affected area, checks access, and uses suitable diagnostics where needed. You then receive a fixed-fee quote with no hidden fees before work starts, so you can make a clear decision once the scope is known.
What do Plumbers do?
A plumber repairs, installs, and tests water, drainage, and related fixtures so systems work safely and reliably. In NSW, regulated plumbing and gas work must be completed by licensed professionals. Fixed Today Plumbing is properly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and attending technicians are licensed plumbers in NSW. Work is verified before the technician leaves.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A running toilet is usually caused by a seal or valve that is not closing properly, and it can waste water continuously if left unchecked. The safest way to resolve it is an on-site repair so the correct part is identified and replaced. Fixed Today Plumbing assesses the toilet in Leets Vale and provides a fixed-fee quote before repairs begin, then tests flush and refill operation.
The shower is leaking; how do I stop it?
A leaking shower should be assessed promptly because water can track into walls or flooring and expand the repair scope over time. The cause might be a plumbing connection, a tap set, or a failure around the shower area, and those need different fixes. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the source onsite in Leets Vale, explains the repair options, then quotes before starting work.
Do you service the entire Leets Vale area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Leets Vale as part of our Sydney metropolitan coverage. For emergencies, we use localised dispatch points across Sydney, including West Sydney, and the closest available licensed trade technician is allocated.

Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains, and the most reliable approach is locating the restriction first, then clearing it using the right method for the pipe. camera inspection can confirm whether the blockage is caused by debris, grease build-up, or root intrusion. If the camera shows structural damage, repair options are explained and quoted once scope is verified.
