Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For plumbing, drainage, and gas work in Leumeah, a NSW-fully licensed plumber is the safest option when there is a leak, a blockage that keeps returning, or any gas concern. DIY work can create water damage or safety risks, and it can cause compliance issues later. If you are unsure, booking an assessment lets the scope be confirmed and priced before work starts.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing cost in Leumeah depends on the scope of work, access to the pipework, parts required, and whether it is an urgent after-hours job. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, transparent pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you receive a set price once the job is assessed. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides domestic and commercial plumbing across Sydney, including Leumeah. This covers general plumbing repairs, blocked drains and sewer repairs, hot water unit work, gas fitting, leak detection, and common fixture repairs like toilets and taps. If inspection finds a larger fault, such as structural pipe damage, options are explained and quoted once the scope is confirmed.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, an onsite assessment is used for quoting in Leumeah because accurate pricing depends on what is actually found at the property. Phone descriptions rarely show access limits, the exact location of the fault, or whether pipework is damaged. After the assessment, a fixed-price quote is provided before any work starts, so you can decide with clear information.
What do plumbers do?
A plumber installs, repairs, and maintains water, drainage, and related fixtures around a property, including toilets, taps, showers, hot water supply systems, and pipework. Licensed plumbers also handle drainage work, and licensed gas fitters manage gas appliances and gas pipework. In Leumeah, the first visit usually focuses on diagnosis and making the issue safe before any repair is confirmed.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A toilet that keeps running usually indicates a worn internal component that needs replacement or repair, and the right fix depends on the cistern type and condition. It is best to book a plumber in Leumeah when the running is constant, the toilet is leaking at the base, or flushing is unreliable. Once inspected, the job is quoted with fixed, upfront pricing before work proceeds.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower can come from the shower head, the taps, or hidden pipework behind tiles, and ongoing water can cause damage even when it looks minor. If you see water staining, swelling, or persistent damp, arrange an assessment so the source can be confirmed. In Leumeah, the cost usually depends on access, and a flat-rate quote is provided before repairs start.
Do you service the entire Leumeah area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Leumeah and the wider Sydney metropolitan regions. The team has capacity to service up to a 60km radius from base hubs for emergency calls, and uses localised dispatch points across Sydney. If you have access constraints such as tenants, strata rules, or restricted parking, mention it when booking so the visit can be planned.
Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Leumeah and can also inspect drains using CCTV cameras to confirm the cause. Clearing is often straightforward when the line is accessible, but if inspection shows structural damage or ongoing root intrusion, the repair options are explained and quoted once the scope is verified. The goal is to restore flow and reduce repeat blockages.
How fast can you come?
For emergencies in Leumeah, Fixed Today Plumbing provides immediate dispatch, meaning urgent jobs are allocated first from local Sydney dispatch points. Arrival timing depends on the current workload and traffic, but ETA updates are provided where possible. For non-urgent work, same-day service is available for all standard plumbing and gas enquiries, subject to availability when you book.
