Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Lilli Pilli?

Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Lilli Pilli (Sutherland Shire) using a diagnose-first approach, so the restriction is confirmed before anything is priced or repaired. We service all Sydney metropolitan regions and use local dispatch locations across Sydney, including Dolans Bay, to get the nearest available duly licensed NSW plumber allocated. Onsite conditions vary between properties, so access and the affected line are confirmed first, then options are explained.

Our standard service process is simple and consistent. We complete a detailed onsite inspection using specialised tools, then provide a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before work starts. Once approved, the repair or clearing work is completed to Australian Standards, and the line is tested and the area is cleaned up before we leave.

For Lilli Pilli drainage jobs, the first visit is usually about finding the actual cause, not guessing. A pattern we notice is that symptoms like a slow gully or an overflowing grate can come from different points in the line, so inspection matters. Where suitable, we use high-definition CCTV drain cameras to see what is happening inside the pipe, then clear the blockage with high-pressure water jetting.

Pricing is kept clear. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), backed by a Fixed Price Guarantee (the price quoted is the price paid). Quotes are valid for 30 days from the date issued. No call-out fee applies for many service areas (check specific suburb pages), so when booking in Lilli Pilli, ask the team to confirm whether a call-out fee applies for your address and time of day.

Work is carried out by a family-owned and operated plumbing company with over 15+ years of service in the Sydney region, and a near-perfect 5-star rating based on 800+ verified customer reviews. Fixed Today Plumbing is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and all attending technicians are properly licensed plumbers in NSW. Licence: NSW Licensed Plumber, Drainer & Gasfitter - 305428C (ABN: 49 147 237 741).

Insurance is current and maintained, with comprehensive Public Liability and Workers Compensation. Public Liability insurance is there to help protect you if accidental property damage occurs during the job. Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries on the job. Workmanship is backed by a Lifetime Labour Warranty on all workmanship, alongside standard manufacturer warranties on hardware and appliances.

If you need more than drain clearing, the team also assists with everyday plumbing and gas work across Lilli Pilli, including:

  • Blocked drains and sewer problems
  • Repairing leaking taps and leaking pipes
  • Hot water system installation, repairs, and servicing
  • Bathroom and toilet plumbing repairs
  • Professional gas fitting and appliance connections

Urgent work is available any time, with 24/7 Emergency support for residential and commercial clients. Immediate dispatch means emergencies are sent out first and the next available technician is allocated from local Sydney dispatch points, then ETA updates are provided where possible.

Do you have a blocked drain?

Blocked drains in Lilli Pilli usually need more than a quick clear, because the right fix depends on what is actually restricting the line. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms where the blockage is and what is causing it, then clears it using an appropriate method for the pipework. This covers typical internal and external residential blockages in accessible lines, and if inspection shows structural damage, the options are explained and quoted once the scope is confirmed.

A drain blockage is not just annoying. It can push wastewater back into sinks, showers, or floor wastes, and repeated overflows can damage cupboards, flooring, and wall linings. The practical goal is to restore flow and reduce the risk of the same problem returning.

On first inspection, blocked drains often show up as slow drainage, gurgling, or unpleasant smells, but those symptoms do not always point to the same cause. In practice, we see kitchen lines commonly affected by grease build-up, while toilets and main lines are more likely to be impacted by foreign objects or a restriction further downstream.

Some common causes of blocked drain issues include:

  • Grease, fat, and food waste narrowing the pipe
  • Hair and soap residue collecting in shower and bathroom lines
  • Foreign objects entering the drainage system
  • Tree roots intruding into underground pipework where joints or cracks exist

Fixed Today Plumbing uses tools that make the assessment more certain, including CCTV drain inspections and high-pressure water jetting. That means the location and nature of the blockage can be confirmed before deciding whether a straightforward clear is enough, or whether a repair is the better long-term option.

If you are organising access for a property in Lilli Pilli, mention any timing windows, strata rules, or restricted parking when booking. It helps the attending technician plan the visit and reduces delays once onsite.

Once the cause is confirmed, you receive a fixed-price quote before work starts, and you can decide based on a clear scope rather than a guess. If you want to use the web offer, ask about the $55 off by mentioning "web55" when you book (limited to 1 per person/paying jobs).

Fixed upfront pricing, confirmed before we begin

A blocked drain is priced once the scope is defined onsite, so you receive a fixed price quote with no hidden fees before starting work. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, transparent pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), and quotes are valid for one month from the date issued. If a call-out fee applies to your address or time, it is confirmed when booking.

Evidence of performance through customer reviews

Fixed Today Plumbing has a near-perfect 5-star rating based on 800+ verified customer reviews. The company has over 15+ years of service in the Sydney region, so the team has seen repeat drainage patterns across many property types, not just one-off jobs.

24/7 emergencies, with clear arrival communication

24/7 emergency plumbing support is available for residential and commercial clients. Immediate dispatch means urgent jobs are sent out first and the nearest available licensed and comprehensively insured plumber is allocated from local Sydney dispatch points. ETA updates are provided where possible, and entry instructions are confirmed at the door.

Licensed, insured, and accountable for workmanship

All attending technicians are licensed plumbers in NSW, and Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting. The business is comprehensively insured, with current insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation). Workmanship is backed by a Lifetime Labour Warranty on all workmanship, and hardware is covered by standard manufacturer warranties.

Burst Pipes

Burst pipes at a Lilli Pilli property can cause rapid water damage, because a pressurised line can release a lot of water into walls, ceilings, or subfloors. Fixed Today Plumbing repairs burst pipes and investigates the cause, so the immediate leak is stopped and the repair suits the condition of the pipework. This includes common domestic and commercial broken pipe scenarios, and if the damage is extensive or access is complex, the repair options are explained once the scope is confirmed on site.

What typically happens is that a small weakness in an older line finally gives way, and the first obvious sign is water staining or a sudden pressure drop. The sooner the leak is contained, the lower the chance of secondary damage like swollen flooring or mould growth.

Fixed Today Plumbing also provides no-dig drain relining for suitable underground pipe repairs. Relining repairs the damaged pipe from the inside, which can reduce the need for excavation when the original pipe has not completely collapsed. If inspection indicates relining is not appropriate, the options are discussed and priced clearly before work proceeds.

If you are dealing with an active leak, book an urgent visit. Immediate dispatch is available for emergencies, and the attending technician can talk you through what will be assessed on arrival and what access is needed to make the area safe.

Emergency Blocked Drains

An overflowing toilet or a sewer backing up in Lilli Pilli is disruptive and time-sensitive, because wastewater can quickly affect floors, bathrooms, and nearby rooms. Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 Emergency support and immediate dispatch for emergency blocked drains across Sydney. This covers urgent domestic and commercial callouts, and if the cause is structural damage rather than a simple obstruction, the next step is explained and quoted after the scope is verified.

In an emergency, the priority is to stop further overflow and make the site safe. Avoid using the affected fixtures until a licensed plumbing technician (NSW) has assessed the line, especially if multiple drains are backing up, as that often indicates a restriction in the main sewer connection.

Immediate dispatch is organised from localised dispatch points across Sydney, including Dolans Bay, West Sydney, and Ruse. That usually means the plumber allocated is the nearest available technician at the time, and ETA updates are provided where possible, since traffic and current bookings can affect arrival timing.

Following our standard diagnose-and-quote approach, the attending plumber confirms what is backing up, checks access to the affected drainage points, and uses appropriate equipment to restore flow. If the blockage keeps returning, inspection findings are explained in plain English, so you can decide whether clearing is enough or whether a repair is the smarter fix.

Gas Plumbers

Gas fitting work in Lilli Pilli needs to be handled by a licensed gas fitter, because gas leakages and incorrect connections create immediate safety risks. Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and can assist with gas leak testing and new gas connections. This covers typical domestic and commercial gas work, and if the job needs additional compliance steps, these are explained before work proceeds.

A common situation we encounter is a customer noticing a gas smell or an appliance that is not operating normally and wanting certainty quickly. Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 Emergency support, and urgent gas enquiries are treated as time-sensitive so the system can be checked and made safe.

Where gas work is repaired or altered, a standard industry expectation is that the system is tested before it is returned to service. Fixed Today Plumbing explains what has been found, confirms what is being changed, then provides transparent pricing before any gas work starts.

Hot Water Systems

Hot water problems in Lilli Pilli are usually caused by a failing unit, a control fault, or a leak, and the right fix depends on what the system is doing onsite. Fixed Today Plumbing installs, repairs, and maintains hot water service systems, including major brands, with same-day service available for standard enquiries and 24/7 emergency services when there is an urgent loss of hot water. Once the issue is confirmed, a fixed-price quote is provided before work starts.

On first inspection, the early signs are often inconsistent temperature, reduced hot water volume, or visible leaking around the unit. Leaving it too long can lead to a full breakdown, and in the case of a leaking storage tank, it can also cause property damage.

Fixed Today Plumbing services electric and gas systems, and can advise on replacement when repair is not practical. In plumbing generally, a compliant installation includes correct valves and safe temperature control, and regulated work may require compliance documentation. Manufacturer warranties apply to the unit or parts supplied, and workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on all workmanship.

Contact Your Local Plumber

Blocked drains and sewer problems in Lilli Pilli are handled by confirming the cause, then clearing or repairing the line so it flows properly again.

If you are unsure how urgent your drainage problem is, a quick call can confirm whether it needs immediate dispatch or can be booked as a same-day visit. You do not need to diagnose the cause, the attending technician will confirm it onsite and outline the next step.

For properties with tenants, strata, or tight scheduled access windows, tell our team what the site requires when booking. We can coordinate access with property managers and confirm entry instructions on arrival. Technicians are uniform-wearing, respectful, and committed to leaving work areas clean/tidy, including using protective covers where practical.

Blocked Drain FAQ's in Lilli Pilli

What are the common causes of blocked drains?

Blocked drains in Lilli Pilli are commonly caused by build-up inside the pipe, or a restriction further down the line, such as grease in kitchen waste, hair and soap residue in bathroom drains, foreign objects, or tree roots entering a damaged joint. The exact cause matters because clearing and long-term repair are priced differently once the scope is confirmed on site onsite.

How can I prevent my drains from getting blocked?

Reducing clogged drains usually comes down to limiting what enters the line and addressing slow drainage early. In practice, kitchens block up when fats and food waste build up over time, and bathrooms block up when hair collects in the waste. If the property has a history of repeat blockages, a professional inspection can confirm whether there is an underlying pipe fault.

What should I do if my drain is blocked?

If a drain is blocked, the safest next step is to stop using the affected fixture if it is backing up, then book a licensed plumbing technician to confirm the cause. Fixed Today Plumbing can attend Lilli Pilli for same-day service on standard enquiries and immediate dispatch for emergencies. Once the restriction and access are confirmed onsite, a fixed-price quote is provided before work starts.

Can I use chemical drain cleaners to unblock my drains?

Chemical drain cleaners are not always suitable, because harsh products can damage some pipe materials and may not clear the underlying cause of a serious blockage. They can also make professional clearing harder if the chemical remains in the line. If the blockage is recurring, involves multiple fixtures, or includes overflow, a camera inspection is a safer way to confirm what is actually obstructing the pipe.

How do plumbers clear blocked drains?

Professional drain clearing usually starts with confirming where the restriction is, then removing it with equipment suited to the pipe and blockage type. Fixed Today Plumbing commonly uses CCTV drain cameras to identify the cause, then clears the line using high-pressure water jetting where appropriate. If inspection shows pipe damage rather than a simple obstruction, repair options are explained and priced once scope is defined.

What are the signs of a blocked drain?

Common signs of a clogged drain include slow-draining water, gurgling sounds, unpleasant odours, or water backing up in a sink, shower, or toilet. A more serious warning sign is when multiple drains are affected, as that can indicate a restriction in the main line. If overflow is occurring, it should be treated as urgent and booked as an emergency.

Can blocked drains cause damage to my property?

Yes, blocked drains can damage a Lilli Pilli property because water or wastewater can overflow into bathrooms, laundries, or kitchens, affecting floors, cabinetry, and wall linings. Ongoing moisture can also increase the chance of mould. If pressure builds in the wrong part of the system, it can contribute to pipe failure. Early inspection and clearing usually reduces the overall repair scope.

How often should I have my drains inspected and cleaned?

How often drains need inspection depends on how the property is used and whether there is a history of repeat blockages. Many homes only need attention when symptoms appear, while properties with recurring issues may benefit from periodic inspection to confirm the cause and condition of the pipework. A camera inspection provides clarity, and any recommended work is quoted once scope is confirmed onsite.
