Plumber Marrickville

Local plumbing in Marrickville means identifying what is actually failing, then fixing it safely and to standard, without guessing. Fixed Today Plumbing handles domestic and commercial work across 2204, from urgent leaks to planned replacements. This covers the common problems most properties face, and if the inspection shows a larger fault (like damaged underground drainage), the next options are explained and quoted once scope is clarified.

The service process is consistent: detailed onsite diagnosis using specialised tools, provision of a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before work starts, expert repair or installation performed to Australian Standards, then testing of the system and site cleanup to confirm a permanent resolution. In practice, the diagnostic step is where most cost uncertainty disappears, because the exact fault and access requirements become clear.

Fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour) means you know the job price before work begins, and our Fixed Price Guarantee means the price quoted is the price paid. What typically changes the cost is scope and access: how easy it is to reach the pipe or fixture, whether parts are required, and whether the job is urgent after hours. Quotes are good for 30 days from the date issued, which helps if you need approval from a landlord or strata manager.

Technicians attending are fully licensed plumbers in NSW, and Fixed Today Plumbing is fully insured, with valid insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation). Public Liability is there to cover accidental damage to property during the work. Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries while the job is being carried out. On arrival, staff identity is confirmed, technicians arrive in uniform, and police checks and background checks are completed for technicians.

Common work booked in Marrickville includes:

• Blocked drains and sewer line clearing, including CCTV inspection when needed
• Burst pipes and hidden water leak testing
• Hot water repairs and replacements (gas, electric, solar)
• Gas leak detection and new gas connections by a properly licensed gas fitter
• Toilet, tap, and shower repairs in occupied homes and rentals

If you are unsure whether it is urgent, a quick call is usually enough to book the right technician and confirm what information will help on arrival, including access, parking, and any strata requirements.

Overflowing sewer or stormwater drains in Marrickville usually mean the line cannot carry water away fast enough, so it backs up at the lowest point. Fixed Today Plumbing restores flow by confirming where the restriction sits, then clearing it with the least disruptive method for the pipework. This covers typical on-property lines, and if the issue appears to be outside the property boundary, the next steps are explained after inspection.

Heavy rain can expose weak points quickly, particularly when leaves, silt, or debris narrow the pipe. We use high-pressure water jetting to remove stubborn obstructions, and CCTV drain cameras to inspect the line and confirm whether cracks, joint movement, or root intrusion are contributing. A pattern we notice in denser pockets of the Inner West is that access can involve basements, common driveways, or strata-controlled areas, so it helps to flag any access restrictions when booking.

Burst pipes are stressful because damage can spread fast through floors and walls. Fixed Today Plumbing handles burst pipe repairs in Marrickville by locating the leak, making the area safe, then repairing the failed section once access and scope are confirmed. For emergencies, we arrange immediate dispatch, and if further pipe replacement is needed beyond the initial break, options are explained and quoted before proceeding.

Burst pipes can be linked to high water pressure, corrosion, impact damage, or hidden movement in older connections. We use electronic ultrasonic leak detection when the burst is not obvious, and we carry commonly used parts in fully stocked mobile workshops to reduce delays where practical. After repair, we verify the fix by testing flow and pressure where possible, then clean up the work area.

At Fixed Today, our general plumbing services are delivered with upfront pricing and clear inclusions before work begins. If you are booking from a unit or strata-managed site, let us know about parking and access rules so we can plan the visit properly.

Blocked or leaking toilets in Marrickville are usually caused by a restriction in the outlet, a failed seal, or a worn internal valve that will not shut off properly. Fixed Today Plumbing repairs toilets by confirming whether the problem is in the cistern, pan, or the drainage connection, then quoting the repair once the fault and access are clear. If the blockage appears to be in the main line, the next steps are explained after inspection.

At Fixed Today, we offer comprehensive toilet repairs and suite installations in Marrickville. The usual sequence is to assess the leak path, check the fixing points, then confirm whether replacement parts are needed before proceeding. We use drop sheets or protective covers in work areas where practical, and we clean up and remove debris generated by the work.

Hot water system work in Marrickville includes fault finding, repairs, and full replacements for gas, electric, and solar units. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the existing system type, connections, and safety requirements onsite, then provides a fixed-price quote before any replacement or major repair begins. If the installation requirements change due to space, flue position, or pipework condition, the options are explained before work proceeds.

Whether you prefer gas, electric, instantaneous, or solar solutions, our licensed plumbers can talk you through what is suitable for your household and your existing connections. We commonly work with major brands, including:

• Rheem hot water service systems
• Rinnai hot water systems
• Dux hot water systems
• Bosch hot water systems
• Thermann hot water systems

Once installed or repaired, the system is tested and checked for correct operation before we leave. Workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on all workmanship, and hardware and appliances are covered by standard manufacturer warranties.

Blocked drains in Marrickville are cleared by locating the restriction, choosing the safest clearing method for the pipe, then verifying flow before the job is closed out. Fixed Today Plumbing uses CCTV drain inspection and hydro jetting where needed to remove grease build-up, debris, and root intrusion. This covers most accessible household and commercial blockages, and if the camera shows broken pipework, repair options are explained and quoted once the scope is defined.

For all your blocked drain concerns in Marrickville, our team is available to identify the underlying cause rather than only clearing the symptom. What typically happens is the blockage returns if the pipe is cracked, has a sag, or has root entry that has not been properly removed. Leaving a blockage can lead to sewer overflow, bad odours, and water damage, especially when the line backs up through a low floor waste.

Don\'t delay, send a request to us if water is backing up or overflowing. You do not need to diagnose it, we can confirm the cause onsite and provide fixed, transparent pricing before any repair or clearing work begins.
