Plumber Longueville

Fixed Today Plumbing has served commercial and domestic clients across Longueville and the wider North Shore for over 15 years, building a track record of near-perfect 5-star ratings from more than 800 verified customer reviews. We handle everything from routine tap repairs and fixture replacements to urgent pipe bursts and gas safety checks, with all work performed by NSW-licensed plumbers (Licence 305428C) and backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

Our approach starts with a detailed onsite assessment using high-definition drain inspection cameras, electronic leak detectors, and pressure testing equipment to confirm the cause and extent of the problem. Once the scope is clear, we provide a fixed-price quote before starting work?the price quoted is the price paid, with no surprise charges or hourly rate surprises. You decide whether to proceed once you know exactly what is involved and what it will cost.

The business is family-owned and adequately insured. Public Liability insurance protects against accidental property damage during work, while Workers Compensation covers workplace injuries. All attending technicians are licensed plumbers (NSW), and police and background checks are completed as part of our vetting process. Technicians arrive in uniform, confirm their identity at the door, and explain what they are doing before starting.

We keep work areas tidy using drop sheets and boot covers where requested, and clean up thoroughly before leaving. For occupied homes, noise and movement are kept as low as practical. For security-sensitive properties or high-end finishes, we take extra care around stone benchtops, tiled bathrooms, and timber floors, isolating the work area to protect surfaces.

From the North Shore suburbs of Cremorne Point, Chatswood West, and Cammeray through to Waverton and beyond, Fixed Today has become a trusted partner for both emergency jobs and planned maintenance. Whether it's a blocked drain in Naremburn, an urgent gas leak in McMahons Point, or a hot water service replacement in Milsons Point, our technicians consistently deliver reliable outcomes grounded in practical experience across Sydney's diverse housing stock.

A blocked drain in Longueville typically starts with slow drainage in sinks or showers, gurgling sounds from waste pipes, or water pooling around floor drains. In older Federation and Californian bungalow properties common across the suburb, the cause is often tree root intrusion into original terracotta or clay sewer lines, where fine roots enter hairline cracks and expand over time, trapping toilet paper and solid waste.

Fixed Today Plumbing begins every blockage job with a high-definition CCTV drain camera inspection to locate the obstruction and confirm whether it is debris buildup, root intrusion, or structural pipe damage. The camera feed shows the exact depth and nature of the blockage, which determines the clearing method. For soft blockages?grease, hair, soap scum?we use high-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting) at 3,000 to 5,000 PSI to scour the pipe walls and restore near-full capacity. For tree roots or foreign objects, mechanical cutting tools may be required.

If the CCTV check reveals cracked or collapsed pipes, we explain the options: trenchless pipe relining to create a structural "pipe-within-a-pipe" without excavation, or targeted excavation and replacement where access allows. Relining is often preferred for properties with established landscaping, driveways, or heritage features, as it avoids the cost and disruption of digging up finished surfaces.

After clearing, we run water through the system to verify flow and confirm the blockage is fully resolved. For recurring blockages caused by root intrusion, we recommend periodic CCTV inspections to catch early regrowth before it becomes a full obstruction again. Drainage work within the Lane Cove council area that affects sewer mains or requires council permits is coordinated with Sydney Water where compliance certificates are needed.

Roof and gutter leaks in Longueville properties often result from blocked downpipes, rusted valley gutters, or cracked flashing around chimneys and roof penetrations. In established suburbs with mature trees, leaf litter and debris accumulate quickly, restricting water flow and causing overflow that saturates fascia boards and internal ceilings.

Our licensed plumbers assess the full roof drainage system during the first visit: clearing blockages in downpipes, checking gutter fall and alignment, inspecting box gutters for rust or ponding, and testing stormwater drains to confirm they are discharging correctly. Where leaks have already caused water damage, we identify the entry point and recommend repairs to prevent recurrence.

For Federation and interwar homes common across the suburb, box gutters and concealed valley gutters are frequent leak points. These designs rely on correct fall and sealed joins; when they fail, water tracks sideways into ceiling cavities before becoming visible inside. We explain the extent of the issue, provide a fixed quote for repair or replacement, and coordinate with roofers where structural work is required.

Stormwater drainage in the Lane Cove area is managed by Sydney Water and local council regulations. Where roof runoff connects to council stormwater mains, we confirm the system complies with current standards and that overland flow paths are not blocked. After repairs, we test the system under simulated rainfall or by flushing water through gutters to verify proper discharge and confirm no further leaks are present.

When a toilet keeps running after flushing, fails to flush completely, or backs up with waste, Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the fault onsite and provides a fixed price for the repair. Common issues include worn flapper valves that allow water to leak continuously from the cistern into the bowl, blocked siphon jets that reduce flushing power, or obstructions in the trap that prevent waste from clearing.

A constantly running toilet wastes significant water?often hundreds of litres per day?and the sound is disruptive in occupied homes. Our technicians isolate the water supply, inspect the cistern internals, and test the flush mechanism to confirm whether the fault is a failed flapper, faulty fill valve, or damaged overflow tube. Once identified, we replace the component and adjust the water level to restore normal operation.

For blocked toilets, we assess whether the blockage is in the toilet trap itself or further downstream in the sewer line. If plunging does not resolve it, we use an electric drain auger to clear the obstruction or run a CCTV camera to locate the restriction. Where the blockage is caused by tree roots or structural pipe damage, we explain the options and provide a quote for clearing or relining before proceeding.

After toilet repairs, we test the flush multiple times under normal use conditions to confirm proper operation and check that the cistern refills correctly without overflowing. The work area is cleaned, and any water spilled during the repair is mopped up before we leave.

A broken pipe is urgent because it floods rapidly, damages property, and creates safety hazards from electrical contact or structural saturation. Fixed Today Plumbing responds immediately to pipe bursts across Longueville, dispatching the nearest available plumber to isolate the water supply, contain the leak, and begin repairs as quickly as conditions allow.

The first step is always to stop the flow. We isolate the affected section at the closest stop valve or, if necessary, shut off the main water supply at the meter. Once the water is off, we assess the damage: confirm where the pipe has failed, check for water pooling in subfloor spaces or ceiling cavities, and identify whether the burst is due to corrosion, freezing, or excessive pressure.

In Longueville's older homes, galvanised steel pipes are a common failure point. Corrosion gradually thins the pipe wall until water pressure causes it to rupture, often behind walls or under floors where the damage is not immediately visible. For copper pipes, pinhole leaks may develop due to water chemistry or electrochemical corrosion at joints. Our technicians use electronic ultrasonic leak detection equipment to locate hidden leaks without invasive demolition.

After repairing or replacing the failed section, we pressure-test the system to confirm the repair is holding, then restore water supply and check all fixtures to verify normal operation. If the burst has caused water damage to walls, ceilings, or flooring, we document the affected areas so you can coordinate drying and restoration work. The priority is always to make the property safe, stop further damage, and provide a permanent repair backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

Beyond emergency callouts and specific repairs, Fixed Today Plumbing handles the full range of general plumbing work for Longueville homes and businesses: bathroom renovations, kitchen fixture upgrades, laundry installations, outdoor tap replacements, and backflow prevention device testing.

For bathroom renovations, we coordinate with builders and tilers to install new vanities, toilets, showers, and baths, ensuring all pipework is correctly sized, pressure-tested, and compliant with AS/NZS 3500 standards. This includes running new hot and cold water lines, relocating waste pipes, installing wall-mounted fixtures, and testing drainage under load to confirm proper fall and venting.

Kitchen plumbing involves connecting sinks, dishwashers, and instant hot water taps, with careful attention to water pressure, drainage capacity, and clearances around cabinetry. For properties with older galvanised steel pipes, we often recommend upgrading to copper or PEX during renovations to avoid future corrosion issues.

Outdoor plumbing work includes replacing garden taps, installing irrigation systems, and connecting external hot water units with correct clearances and ventilation. We confirm that stormwater drainage from roofs and paved areas discharges correctly to council mains or approved disposal points, and that backflow prevention devices are tested annually to protect the potable water supply.

Every general plumbing job follows our standard process: confirm the scope onsite, provide a fixed price before starting, complete the work to meet Australian Standards, test and verify outcomes, and clean up thoroughly before leaving. Whether it is a single tap washer or a full bathroom fitout, we treat every job with the same attention to detail and accountability.

Commercial plumbing work in Longueville requires rapid response to minimise downtime, clear documentation for business records, and strict adherence to safety standards in occupied workplaces. Fixed Today Plumbing works with cafes, offices, retail premises, and industrial sites across the North Shore, providing reliable commercial plumbing solutions that keep businesses operational.

Common commercial plumbing issues include blocked grease traps in food service premises, failed hot water units in staff amenities, leaking taps that waste water and increase utility costs, and ruptured pipes that disrupt operations. We respond quickly to emergency service calls, isolate the fault, and implement repairs that restore service as fast as conditions allow.

For commercial properties, we follow site-specific requirements such as induction procedures, safe work method statements, and out-of-hours access protocols. We coordinate timing to avoid peak trading hours where possible, and provide clear communication about water shutoffs or access requirements that affect staff or customers.

All commercial work is documented with detailed invoices, scope descriptions, and testing records suitable for business accounting and compliance purposes. Where work involves gas appliances, backflow prevention, or trade waste systems, we provide the required compliance certificates and coordinate inspections with relevant authorities.

Fixed Today Plumbing has built a reputation across Sydney's commercial sector for reliable service, professional conduct, and lasting repairs backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship. Whether it is a blocked drain at a Lane Cove café or a failed water heater at a North Shore office, our commercial plumbers deliver efficient solutions that minimise disruption and protect business operations.
