Plumbing FAQ's in Little Bay
These are practical plumbing questions we regularly hear from people in Little Bay 2036, especially when they are trying to understand cost, timing, and what happens on the first visit. Each answer is written to help you decide whether the issue is urgent and what you can expect from a properly licensed and fully insured plumber, including fixed upfront pricing once the scope is defined.
Should I hire a professional or do it myself?
For plumbing and gas work in Little Bay, hiring a licensed professional is the safer option when there is any risk of leaks, damage, or compliance requirements. DIY work can create hidden water damage or make later repairs more complex. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the cause onsite, explains the scope in plain English, then provides a fixed-price quote before any work begins.
How much does plumbing cost?
Plumbing cost in Little Bay depends on what is found onsite, because access, the impacted area, and parts required change the scope. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, clear pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you receive a fixed-price quote before work starts. Ask when booking whether a call-out fee applies in Little Bay, and note that quotes are valid for one month from the date issued.
What type of plumbing can be done?
Fixed Today Plumbing provides general domestic and commercial plumbing services in Little Bay, including blocked drains, broken pipe repairs, leak testing, hot water systems, roof and gutter leaks, and gas fitting. The exact work recommended depends on diagnosis onsite, and if inspection shows additional issues, options are explained and priced before any added work proceeds.
Do you come to our house to quote?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing attends properties in Little Bay to assess and quote onsite, because accurate pricing depends on confirming the scope, access, and what has actually failed. After the assessment, you receive a fixed-price quote before any work starts. If you want to avoid surprises, confirm call-out fee details when you book for the 2036 area.
What do Plumbers do?
A plumber installs, repairs, and maintains water, drainage, and related systems in homes and businesses. In NSW, licensed plumbers can also be licensed for drainage and gas fitting. For Little Bay properties, that often means diagnosing leaks or blockages, repairing or replacing failed parts, then testing the outcome. Fixed Today Plumbing completes work to applicable Australian Standards and cleans up before leaving.
How do I stop my toilet running?
A running toilet is usually caused by a faulty inlet valve or flush valve that needs repair or replacement. The practical way to stop ongoing water loss is to book a licensed plumbing professional to confirm which component has failed and fix it properly. If water is escaping onto the floor or the toilet is close to overflowing, stop using it and request urgent help.
The shower is leaking, how do I stop it?
A leaking shower should be assessed early because water can travel behind tiles and cause damage before you see it. Fixed Today Plumbing can inspect the shower, confirm whether the leak is from a fitting, a seal, or concealed pipework, then provide a fixed-price quote before completing the repair. If water is actively pooling outside the shower area, limit use and book urgently.
Do you service the entire Little Bay area?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Little Bay 2036 as part of the Eastern Suburbs and the wider Sydney metropolitan regions.

Are you able to unblock drains?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains in Little Bay, and the right method depends on what is causing the restriction and the condition of the pipe. A CCTV check is commonly used to locate the blockage and check for damage, then the drain is cleared and flow is verified. If the pipe is damaged, repair options such as relining are explained and quoted once scope is clarified.
