Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Mcmahons Point?

Fixed Today Plumbing resolves blocked drain problems in McMahons Point by confirming where the restriction is, clearing it with the least disruptive method for the pipework, and then checking flow before leaving. This covers most accessible household and strata drain blockages; if inspection shows a damaged or collapsed line, the options are explained and quoted once the scope is defined.

McMahons Point sits in North Sydney and many properties have shared drainage runs or strata access rules, so entry instructions and parking constraints can affect the order we inspect fixtures. When you book, it helps to mention if the issue is in a unit, a common area, or a commercial tenancy so the attending technician can plan access and testing.

Fixed Today Plumbing is a family-owned and operated plumbing company with over 15+ years of service in the Sydney region. All attending technicians are licensed plumbers in NSW, and the business is comprehensively insured, with current insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation).

For urgent situations, we provide 24/7 emergency plumbing support for residential and commercial clients and immediate dispatch for emergencies. For non-urgent drainage enquiries, same-day service is available, and we provide clear arrival communication, including ETA updates where possible.

If price uncertainty is holding you back, the pricing model is simple: fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour). After diagnosing the cause, we provide a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before work starts, and you can decide once the scope is clear.

Drain unblocking services

Blocked drain unblocking in McMahons Point is usually about restoring safe, reliable flow and then confirming what caused the backup, so it does not keep coming back. Fixed Today Plumbing starts with an onsite assessment and, where needed, uses CCTV drain cameras and high-pressure jetting to clear the line. If the inspection shows structural damage, we explain repair options and confirm scope before any additional work proceeds.

What typically happens is the first symptom looks minor, like a slow sink, and then another fixture starts gurgling or backing up. That usually means the restriction is further along the line than the original fixture.

In plumbing, the most common causes of blocked drains include:

  • Grease and food waste setting inside kitchen pipework over time
  • Hair and soap residue building up in shower and basin lines
  • Foreign objects lodged in the pipe (often in toilets)
  • Tree roots entering older or cracked underground drains

Our standard method is transparent and consistent. We diagnose using the appropriate tools, confirm what is affected and why, then provide fixed, clear pricing before work starts. After clearing or repairing the drain, we test and verify flow and function, then leave the area clean and tidy.

Costs vary based on access, the location of the obstruction, whether multiple fixtures are affected, and whether extra work is needed after inspection. Where McMahons Point parking or building access is restricted, it can also influence setup time. If you are unsure about the call-out policy for your address, ask when booking as there is no call-out fee for many service areas (check specific suburb pages).

If you are dealing with blocked drains in McMahons Point, book an inspection and we will confirm the cause onsite and explain the next step in plain English.

Fixed, upfront pricing you can decide on

Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour). After we confirm the scope onsite, you receive a fixed-price quote with no hidden fees before work starts, backed by our Fixed Price Guarantee (the price quoted is the price paid).

800+ verified customer reviews

Fixed Today Plumbing has a near-perfect 5-star rating based on 800+ verified customer reviews. It is a useful indicator when you need a tradesperson to arrive, explain the problem clearly, and complete work to a consistent standard.

24/7 emergency support and same-day availability

Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing support for domestic and commercial clients, with immediate dispatch for emergencies. Same-day service is available for general plumbing and gas enquiries, and we provide ETA updates where possible once your booking is confirmed.

Licensed and insured for drainage work

Fixed Today Plumbing is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting. The business is fully insured, with current insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation), which helps protect you if accidental property damage occurs during work or if a workplace injury happens on the job.

Burst Pipes

Burst pipe repairs in McMahons Point are about stopping water damage quickly, then fixing the failed section properly so pressure and flow return to normal. Fixed Today Plumbing can attend for urgent leaks with 24/7 Emergency support, and we provide a fixed-price quote once the cause and access are confirmed onsite. If investigation shows the leak is part of a larger pipe failure, the options are explained before any extra work proceeds.

Active leaks are stressful. The priority is getting a NSW-licensed plumbing professional onsite to make it safe and stop further damage.

A pattern we notice is that a pipe does not always fail where the water shows up. Water can track along framing, down walls, or through floors, so locating the source is part of the first visit.

Fixed Today Plumbing uses modern leak detection and repair methods, including electronic ultrasonic leak detection for hidden bursts. Where a drain line is damaged rather than a pressure line, trenchless options such as drain relining may be discussed after inspection, since not every pipe is suitable for relining and the scope has to be confirmed first.

If you are seeing rapid water escape, ongoing dampness, or a sudden drop in pressure, book a licensed and insured plumber. We can also coordinate access with tenants, property managers, or strata when that is relevant in McMahons Point buildings.

Blocked Drain Emergencies

A drain backup emergency in McMahons Point is any blockage that risks overflow, wastewater coming back up, or damage to floors and walls. Fixed Today Plumbing provides immediate dispatch for emergencies and 24/7 emergency plumbing services for residential and commercial clients. Once onsite, we confirm what is backing up and where, then provide fixed, upfront pricing before starting work.

A drain backing up is disruptive. The goal is to restore flow and confirm what caused it, so the problem does not return next week.

On first inspection, we look at which fixtures are affected and whether the issue appears to be a local line blockage or a main drain restriction. That distinction matters because it changes the clearing method and what we need to test after the work.

After the line is cleared or repaired, we verify the result with practical testing and leave the work area clean and tidy. If the inspection indicates a larger issue, such as structural failure or a recurring root intrusion point, we explain options and confirm the scope before proceeding.

Gas Fitting

Gas fitting and repairs in McMahons Point must be completed by a licensed and properly insured gas fitter, because gas work needs to be safe and compliant. Fixed Today Plumbing is correctly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and attending technicians are licensed and fully insured plumbers in NSW. Same-day service is available for standard enquiries, and urgent safety matters can be booked through our 24/7 emergency assistance.

From similar work across Sydney, the most common reason people call about gas is a concern about a smell, appliance performance, or a new connection they want done correctly the first time. The first visit focuses on confirming what is installed, what needs changing, and what tests are required before recommissioning.

Our gas fitting services include:

  • New gas point installation
  • Installation and repair of gas hot water systems
  • Gas appliance installation and servicing
  • Gas leak testing and repair
  • New gas connections

If you smell gas, arrange an urgent assessment so the system can be checked and made safe. Where regulated work requires it, compliance documentation is provided.

Hot Water Problems

Hot water repairs and part replacements in McMahons Point start with confirming whether the fault is with the unit, the supply, or a related valve, then recommending the most practical fix for your household. Fixed Today Plumbing services and installs hot water systems and provides fixed, upfront pricing once the scope is clarified onsite. If the unit is beyond repair, replacement options are explained and quoted before work proceeds.

The usual sequence is that hot water becomes inconsistent before it fails completely. People often notice temperature swings, reduced hot water duration, or discoloured water, and those clues help guide what needs to be checked during the visit.

Our technicians work across common system types, including:

  • Electric hot water systems
  • Gas hot water service systems
  • Solar hot water systems

We install and repair major brands including Rheem, Dux, and Rinnai, with standard manufacturer warranties on all hardware and appliances. Workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on all workmanship.

Pricing depends on access, the system type, and what is required to complete a compliant installation. Once we have confirmed the scope, you receive a flat-rate quote, and quotes are valid for one month from the date issued.

Book a local licensed plumber

Booking a plumber in McMahons Point is simplest when the job is matched to the right technician and the site access is clear. Fixed Today Plumbing services all Sydney metropolitan regions and allocates jobs from localised dispatch points across Sydney, which helps with immediate dispatch for emergencies and service the same day for standard enquiries. Final pricing is only confirmed after an onsite diagnosis, because access and scope affect the work required.

When you book, tell us if the property is a unit, townhouse, or commercial site, and whether there are strata sign-in rules, parking limits, or a specific access window. We can work around restricted parking or booking windows when disclosed, which is common in parts of North Sydney.

For safety and greater reassurance, staff identity is confirmed on arrival, and technicians can identify themselves before entry. Technicians arrive in uniform, police checks are completed for technicians, and we use drop sheets or protective covers to protect floors and surfaces in work areas.

If you are cost-conscious, ask about call-out details for your address at the time of booking, as there is no call-out fee for many service areas (check specific suburb pages). You can also mention "web55" to receive $55 off for customers mentioning "web55" (limited to 1 per person/paying jobs).

To book, call 1800 349 338 or email jobs@fixedtoday.com.au. Payment is available via all major Credit Cards (Visa, Mastercard).

Blocked Drain FAQ's in McMahons Point

What usually causes blocked drains in McMahons Point?

Blocked drains in McMahons Point are most often caused by grease buildup in kitchen lines, soap residue and hair in bathroom wastes, foreign objects in toilets, or tree roots entering underground pipes. In areas with apartments and shared pipe runs, one restriction can affect multiple fixtures. A CCTV inspection can confirm the cause before repair options are quoted.

Is a slow drain something I should treat as urgent?

A slow drain is not always an emergency, but it can become one if it starts backing up or affecting multiple fixtures. Slow flow often means the pipe is narrowing over time, so the next step is usually an onsite assessment to confirm how far along the line the restriction is. If overflow is likely, stop using the affected fixture and book a NSW-licensed plumbing professional.

What is involved when a plumber clears a blocked drain?

Clearing a blocked drain typically involves locating the restriction, choosing a clearing method suited to the pipe material, and then verifying flow afterward. Fixed Today Plumbing may use CCTV drain cameras to see the blockage and high-pressure jetting to remove debris. If inspection shows structural damage, repair options are explained and quoted once the scope is verified.

Do you give a price before you start unblocking the drain?

Yes, pricing is provided upfront once the scope is confirmed onsite onsite. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so the fixed-price quote reflects the actual work required after diagnosis. If the inspection reveals additional issues, the options are explained and quoted before any extra work proceeds.

Do blocked drains cause property damage if ignored?

Yes, blocked drains can lead to overflow, wastewater backflow, and water damage to floors, walls, and cabinetry if the blockage worsens. Persistent blockages can also contribute to pipe stress and leaks. Early assessment matters because it lets the cause be confirmed and cleared before contamination or structural damage becomes more likely.

Can I use chemical drain cleaners for blocked drains?

Chemical drain cleaners are not always suitable and can damage some pipe materials or fittings. They also do not confirm whether the cause is grease, roots, or a foreign object, which matters for a lasting result. A professional assessment can identify the blockage type and clear it safely, then confirm the line is flowing properly before the job is closed out.

Is there a call-out fee in McMahons Point?

Call-out fee arrangements can vary by service area, so it is best to confirm the call-out details when booking for a McMahons Point address. Fixed Today Plumbing has a call-out policy of no call-out fee for many service areas (check specific suburb pages). Once onsite, a fixed-price quote is provided after diagnosis so you can decide with the scope clear.

Can you work in strata buildings or rentals in McMahons Point?

Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing can work in strata and rental properties, and we can coordinate with property managers, strata, or tenants for access. In practice, the main difference is access and responsibility boundaries, such as whether the issue is within a unit or in common property drainage. We confirm access permissions at the door and provide invoices suitable for agents and records.
