Plumbing FAQ's in Lindfield
These Lindfield plumbing FAQs explain what usually affects urgency, cost, and booking time for common problems like leaks, hot water faults, blocked drains, and gas work. Each answer is general, because the exact scope and price can only be confirmed after an onsite assessment. If your question is not covered below, call and we will help you book the right licensed plumber.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
Hiring a NSW-duly licensed plumbing technician in Lindfield is the safer option when water damage, gas, or compliance is involved, because the cause is not always visible and incorrect repairs can create bigger risks. Fixed Today Plumbing is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting. If an onsite assessment finds a simple fix, it can be quoted as a fixed price before work starts.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing cost depends on the confirmed scope, access to the affected area, parts required, and whether it is an emergency or a standard booking. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you see the price before any work starts. No call-out fee for many service areas (check specific suburb pages), and you can confirm Lindfield call-out details when booking.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing delivers general domestic and commercial plumbing services across Sydney, including Lindfield. Work commonly includes blocked drains, broken pipes, leak testing, hot water repairs and part replacements, toilet and tap repairs, roof and gutter leaks, and licensed gas fitting. If the job requires specialised structural pipe repair, the options are explained after the onsite diagnosis.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, an onsite assessment is the reliable way to confirm the cause and scope before pricing, because many plumbing problems cannot be accurately priced from a description alone. Fixed Today Plumbing completes diagnosis first, then provides a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before we begin. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued, which helps with scheduling access.
What do Plumbers do?
Plumbers install, repair, and maintain water, drainage, and gas systems in homes and businesses. That includes diagnosing leaks and blockages, replacing faulty fixtures, repairing burst pipes, servicing hot water systems, and completing regulated gas work safely. In any job, the important part is confirming what is actually causing the problem before approving repairs and pricing.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A running toilet is usually caused by a worn internal valve or seal, and it should be assessed because the same symptom can come from different faults. If water is overflowing, isolate the water supply if you can do so safely, then book a licensed, insured plumber. Fixed Today Plumbing can inspect the cistern, confirm the failed part, and quote a fixed price before repairs start.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower should be checked early because water can travel behind tiles and damage the wall or floor structure. If there is active water flow you cannot control, book an urgent assessment. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms whether the leak is from the fittings, pipework, or another source, then provides fixed, upfront pricing once the scope is clear.
Do you service the entire Lindfield area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Lindfield and the wider Sydney metropolitan regions, including the North Shore. For emergencies, the business has capacity to service up to a 60km radius from base hubs, depending on current bookings. For Lindfield jobs, the attending technician is allocated from localised dispatch points across Sydney, and an ETA is provided when booking where possible.
Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains and can also handle structural pipe repair when inspection shows damage. The work commonly involves locating the restriction with high-definition CCTV inspection equipment, clearing it with high-pressure water jetting where suitable, and then confirming flow. If the drain is damaged or collapsed, repair options such as no-dig pipe lining can be explained and quoted after scope is confirmed onsite.
How fast can you come?
For Lindfield emergencies, Fixed Today Plumbing provides immediate dispatch and sends urgent jobs out first, using localised dispatch points across Sydney. For standard plumbing and gas enquiries, same-day service is available. Arrival timing depends on current jobs, access requirements, and traffic, but we provide clear arrival communication, including ETA updates where possible, so you know what to expect.
