If your situation does not fit neatly into one question, the phone line is open and we can confirm the next step based on what youre seeing.
Do I need a licensed plumbing specialist for plumbing work in Meadowbank?
Yes, its safest to use a fully licensed and properly insured plumber, especially for drainage and gas work where mistakes can cause damage or safety risks. Fixed Today Plumbing is properly licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and all attending technicians are NSW-licensed plumbers. The right approach is an on-site inspection so the scope is clear before any work begins.
How is pricing worked out for plumbing jobs in Meadowbank?
Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour) once the job is assessed and the scope is defined onsite. Price usually changes with access, the condition of existing pipework, parts required, and whether work is after-hours. If the diagnosis shows extra work is needed, it is explained and quoted before proceeding.
What plumbing services can Fixed Today Plumbing help with in Meadowbank?
Fixed Today Plumbing handles general domestic and commercial plumbing services in Meadowbank, including blocked drains, sewer repairs, hot water systems, gas fitting, leak detection, burst pipes, and general maintenance like toilets and taps. Same-day service is available for all standard plumbing and gas enquiries, subject to safe access and parts availability for the specific job.
Do you need to inspect the job onsite before quoting in Meadowbank?
Yes, an onsite inspection is the safest way to quote plumbing accurately because the cause and access are not always obvious from symptoms alone. Fixed Today Plumbing confirms the affected area, checks what can be accessed safely, and then provides a fixed-price quote before work starts. This avoids surprises and gives you a clear decision point once scope is established.
Do you charge a call-out fee for Meadowbank?
Call-out fees depend on the service area. Fixed Today Plumbing has no call-out fee for many service areas (check specific suburb pages), so its best to confirm the Meadowbank call-out policy when booking. Regardless of call-out arrangements, pricing for the repair itself is fixed and provided upfront once the issue is assessed onsite.
My toilet keeps running, is it urgent?
A running toilet is not always an emergency, but it can waste a lot of water and sometimes indicates a component that is close to failing completely. A plumber can usually confirm the cause quickly onsite and quote the repair at a fixed price before starting. If water is escaping onto the floor or into nearby rooms, treat it as urgent and arrange a visit.
What should I do if a shower is leaking into the wall or floor?
A leak that is getting into walls or floors should be assessed promptly because moisture can damage framing, cabinetry, and finishes over time. The right next step is booking an onsite inspection so the leak source can be confirmed and quoted properly. Fixed Today Plumbing can explain what is found in plain English before proceeding with any repair work.

Can you clear blocked drains and blocked sewer drains in Meadowbank?
Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains and can attend blocked sewer drain problems, using diagnostics like CCTV drain cameras to confirm what is causing the restriction. Clearing is then completed using the most suitable method for the pipework, such as high-pressure water jetting. If inspection shows structural damage, repair options are explained and quoted once confirmed.
