Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Newtown?

Fixed Today Plumbing offers licensed plumbing, drainage and gas fitting for homes and businesses in Newtown (Inner West Council), with urgent jobs sent out first from localised dispatch points across Sydney (including West Sydney, Dolans Bay, and Ruse). Newtown properties are a mix of older terraces and newer apartments, so access and existing pipework are checked on arrival before any fixed-price quote is confirmed.

Bookings cover general plumbing services as well as urgent emergency plumbing callouts. Same-day service is available for standard enquiries, while emergencies are immediately dispatched. Arrival timing still depends on current bookings and traffic, but we provide clear arrival communication and ETA updates where possible.

Fixed Today Plumbing is a family-owned and operated plumbing company with over 15+ years of service in the Sydney region and a near-perfect 5-star rating based on 800+ verified customer reviews. All attending technicians are fully licensed and insured plumbers in NSW, and the business is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting (NSW Licensed Plumber, Drainer & Gasfitter - 305428C, ABN: 49 147 237 741).

Pricing is fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), and the Fixed Price Guarantee means the price quoted is the price paid. Many service areas have no call-out fee (check specific suburb pages), so it is worth confirming the call-out fee status for Newtown when booking. For enquiries, call 1800 349 338 or email jobs@fixedtoday.com.au.

Expert Plumbing Services in Newtown

Plumbing help in Newtown usually starts with an onsite check, because the right fix depends on where the problem is and how the pipework is set up. Fixed Today Plumbing handles commercial and domestic work across the suburb, and once the cause is confirmed, you receive a flat-rate quote before any work starts. If inspection shows extra damage or access constraints, the options are explained and re-quoted after scope is clarified.

What typically happens is that a small symptom, like slow drainage or a damp patch, traces back to a bigger cause such as a partial blockage, a worn valve, or a hidden leak. Finding that cause early matters, because leaks can damage cabinets and walls, and blocked wastewater lines can overflow quickly.

  1. Diagnosis: A detailed onsite assessment using specialised diagnostic tools, such as camera inspection equipment, high-pressure jetters, and electronic ultrasonic leak detection where relevant.
  2. Upfront Quote: A fixed-fee quote with no hidden fees before work starts, with inclusions and exclusions explained in plain English.
  3. Completion: The repair or installation is completed to Australian Standards using stocked mobile workshops with premium parts.
  4. Verification: The system is tested where practical, and the work area is cleaned up before leaving.

For many customers, the most sensible next step is a short call to explain what is happening and whether it is urgent. You do not need to diagnose it. The first visit confirms the scope, then you can decide once the fixed price is clear.

Fixed upfront pricing (by the job)

Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, clear pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour). After the onsite inspection confirms scope and access, a fixed-price quote is provided before work starts, and the Fixed Price Guarantee means the price quoted is the price paid. Quotes are valid for one month from the date issued.

Accountable workmanship warranty

Work completed by Fixed Today Plumbing is backed by a Lifetime Labour Warranty on all workmanship. That warranty covers the labour component of the work performed, while parts and appliances are covered by standard manufacturer warranties.

24/7 emergency support and same-day bookings

Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing services for commercial and residential clients, and same-day service is available for regular plumbing and gas enquiries. For emergencies, urgent jobs are immediately dispatched, and we provide ETA updates where possible.

Licensed and insured for NSW plumbing and gas work

Fixed Today Plumbing is fully licensed in NSW for Plumbing, Drainage, and Gas Fitting, and all attending technicians are fully licensed plumbers in NSW. The business is comprehensively insured, with current insurance policies maintained (Public Liability and Workers Compensation). Public Liability helps if accidental property damage occurs during work, and Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries on the job.

Leaking Taps

A leaking tap in a Newtown home is usually caused by worn internal seals or a failing valve, and it can lead to water damage under sinks and ongoing water waste. Fixed Today Plumbing investigates the source, confirms whether the leak is isolated to the tap or linked to pipework, then provides a fixed-fee quote before proceeding. If inspection suggests a hidden leak, the next step is explained and quoted once scope is confirmed.

On first inspection, we often find that the visible drip is not the only problem, because water can track along cabinetry or into wall linings before it shows up. Where leak location is unclear, we can use specialised detection methods to narrow it down and reduce unnecessary disruption. If you need targeted help, our team can arrange leak detection via leak detection services.

Work is completed to applicable Australian Standards and tested before leaving. The workmanship component is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, so you have clear accountability if a workmanship-related issue returns.

Water Filtration Systems

A water filtration system is fitted to improve taste and reduce sediment and chlorine-type odours at the tap. Fixed Today Plumbing installs and replaces water filtration systems in Newtown, with the right option depending on your existing pipework, available space, and whether you want whole-of-home filtration or a single drinking tap. Once the setup is confirmed onsite, you receive fixed upfront pricing before installation begins.

A pattern we notice is that many installations fail early because the filter is squeezed into a cupboard with poor access, so cartridges are skipped and fittings loosen over time. We check mounting points, shut-off locations, and clearances, then complete the install neatly and test for leaks before leaving.

If you are booking for a unit or strata-managed building, it helps to share any available time windows or entry instructions upfront, because this can affect arrival logistics and how quickly the job can be completed.

Toilet Troubles

Toilet problems like constant running, weak flushing, slow refills, and recurring clogs usually come down to worn valves, poor sealing, or a partial blockage in the outlet. Fixed Today Plumbing resolves toilet issues across Newtown, and the work starts with confirming whether the fault is inside the cistern, at the pan connection, or further along the drain. A fixed price quote is provided before repairs or replacement go ahead.

From similar visits in older Newtown bathrooms, access and fixing points can be the deciding factor, especially where the toilet is tight to a wall or built into cabinetry. We explain what will be done before starting, use protective covers where practical, and clean up the work area when finished.

For landlords, agents, and strata properties, we can provide receipts and invoices suitable for records. If you need a dedicated service, toilet work can be booked through our fixed-price toilet repair services.

Blocked Kitchen Drains

Blocked kitchen drains in Newtown are commonly caused by grease and food residue building up on the pipe walls, which slows flow and eventually traps debris. Fixed Today Plumbing clears kitchen lines by confirming where the restriction is, then removing it with the least disruptive method suitable for the pipework. This covers typical accessible kitchen drain blockage issues, and if inspection points to broken or collapsed pipework, the repair options are explained and quoted once the scope is confirmed onsite.

The usual sequence is that the sink drains slowly for a while, then it suddenly backs up during heavier use. In older buildings, harsh chemicals can also be a problem because they may damage older fittings or shift debris further down the line.

Once diagnosed and quoted, clearing work may involve high-pressure water jetting to restore flow and a camera check where needed to confirm the cause. After the line is cleared, we verify drainage performance before leaving.

Emergency Plumbing

Plumbing emergencies are stressful, and the priority is stopping damage and making the situation safe. Fixed Today Plumbing delivers 24/7 emergency plumbing support in Newtown, with immediate dispatch for urgent jobs and a licensed field technician allocated from nearby Sydney dispatch points. This covers common emergencies like burst pipes, overflowing drains, and urgent hot water failures, and once the issue is contained, the permanent repair is quoted upfront after scope is defined.

In practice, Newtown callouts often involve access limits, such as tight side passages in older terraces or strata entry requirements in apartments, so it helps to share any entry instructions when you book. We confirm identity on arrival, technicians arrive in uniform, and staff identity can be confirmed before entry.

If there is active leaking or overflow, keep people clear of the affected area and move valuables out of the way where you can do so safely, then book an emergency plumber. If you suspect a gas leak, arrange immediate attendance by a licensed gas fitter so the system can be checked and made safe, including through gas leak support where required.

Hot Water Systems

Hot water system faults usually show up as no hot water, fluctuating temperatures, or leaking around the unit, and they can worsen quickly once a tank starts to fail. Fixed Today Plumbing provides hot water system repairs, installations, and replacements for Newtown homes and businesses, with fixed upfront pricing provided after the system type and site setup are checked. If inspection shows additional plumbing or safety work is needed, the next step is explained and quoted before anything proceeds.

What often happens is that a unit can appear to be a simple replacement, but access, valve condition, and safe discharge points affect the scope. We service and install systems for major brands including Rheem, Dux, and Rinnai. For related issues like low flow, you can also book a check via water pressure support.

After the work is completed, the system is tested where practical and the area is left tidy. Workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, with hardware covered by standard manufacturer warranties.

Overflowing Sewer and Stormwater Drains

Overflowing drains usually mean the line cannot carry wastewater or stormwater away, so it backs up at the lowest point, often a gully, shower, or toilet. Fixed Today Plumbing responds to overflowing sewer and stormwater drains in Newtown by locating the restriction and clearing it, then checking whether there is underlying pipe damage. This covers typical accessible blockages, and if CCTV check finds cracks or structural failure, repair options like drain relining are discussed and quoted once scope is verified.

A common situation we encounter is that the overflow is treated as the problem, but the cause is further along, such as a heavy grease buildup, a foreign object, or root intrusion in older pipe runs. Because wastewater overflow can create hygiene risks, it is worth arranging prompt assessment rather than waiting for it to "settle".

Following our standard process, we may use hydro jetting and CCTV inspection to remove obstructions and confirm the condition of the line. If you are seeing repeated overflow, it can help to book through overflowing drains so the cause is properly confirmed.

Burst Pipe Repairs

Burst pipes need urgent attention because even a small split can release a large volume of water into walls, floors, and subfloors. Fixed Today Plumbing delivers broken pipe repairs in Newtown with immediate dispatch for emergencies, and once the leaking section is located and the scope is clarified, a fixed-price quote is provided before repair work begins. If inspection shows broader pipe deterioration, the options are explained before any additional work proceeds.

Burst pipes can occur due to various reasons, including:

  • Improper installation
  • High water pressure
  • Blockages and corrosion
  • Tree root intrusion
  • Soil movement
  • Freezing temperatures

If left unaddressed, a broken pipe can cause significant water damage and costly repairs. Same-day service is available for burst pipe repairs, and where a damaged section of pipe is suitable, drain relining may be an option after diagnosis confirms the condition and access.

Gas Plumbing Services

Gas plumbing work must be completed by a fully NSW-licensed gasfitter because leaks and incorrect connections create fire and health risks. Fixed Today Plumbing provides licensed gas plumbing services in Newtown, including appliance installation and gas leak detection, with the job scoped onsite before a fixed-price quote is confirmed. Where regulated work requires compliance documentation, it is provided once the work is done and checked.

Fixed Today has a team of licensed gas fitters qualified to handle gas fittings, installations, and leak investigations. Our approach includes confirming safe access, explaining what will be tested, and verifying the system before leaving. You can book this service via Fixed Today has a team of licensed gas fitters qualified to handle gas fittings, installations, and leak investigations.

Insurance is maintained for Public Liability and Workers Compensation. In plain English, Public Liability helps protect you if accidental property damage occurs during the work, and Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries on the job.

For bookings and quoting, it is worth raising any access constraints common in Newtown properties, such as strata sign-in requirements or limited parking and loading space near the building. These details help us plan the right technician and equipment, and they affect how quickly the work can be completed once onsite.

Plumbing FAQ's in Newtown

These answers cover how plumbing callouts typically work in Newtown, including pricing, access, and what happens on the first visit. If your situation is urgent, Fixed Today Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing support, and emergencies are immediately dispatched once the details are confirmed over the phone.

When should I stop using the fixture and book a plumber?

You should book a licensed and insured plumber when there is active leaking, repeated drain overflow, or any suspected gas issue, because the risk of property damage or safety hazards increases quickly. For less urgent problems like a dripping tap or running toilet, it is still worth booking before it worsens. The onsite assessment confirms scope first, then fixed upfront pricing is provided.

What affects the cost of plumbing work in Newtown?

Plumbing costs mainly change with scope, access, parts required, and whether the job is after-hours or urgent. Newtown properties can vary from older terraces to strata apartments, and access can affect time on site. Fixed Today Plumbing uses fixed, upfront pricing (priced by the job, not by the hour), so you receive a flat-rate quote once the the scope is confirmed.

What plumbing services can Fixed Today Plumbing do in Newtown?

Fixed Today Plumbing offers licensed plumbing, drainage, and gas fitting services in Newtown, including blocked drains, leak detection, broken pipe repairs, toilet repairs, and hot water system work. The team also handles commercial plumbing where required. If inspection finds structural pipe issues, options like repairs or drain relining are explained and quoted after the scope is confirmed onsite.

Do you need to inspect onsite before giving a quote in Newtown?

Yes, many jobs are quoted after an onsite inspection, because accurate pricing depends on access, pipe condition, and the exact fault location. Fixed Today Plumbing completes a detailed assessment first, explains what was found in plain English, and then provides a fixed-price quote before work starts. If the scope changes after inspection, the next step is discussed and re-quoted.

What happens during the first visit?

The first visit is focused on confirming the cause and the scope, so you are not approving work blindly. Depending on the issue, this may include visual checks, pressure or leak checks, or a drain camera inspection. After that, Fixed Today Plumbing explains the options and provides fixed upfront pricing before any repair or installation proceeds.

My toilet is running, is it urgent?

A running toilet is not always an emergency, but it can waste a lot of water and sometimes it is a sign of a valve or seal failure that will worsen. If the toilet is overflowing, leaking at the base, or backing up, it should be treated as urgent. Fixed Today Plumbing can assess the cause onsite and provide a fixed-price quote before repairs.

Why do showers leak into walls or floors?

Shower leaks can come from pipework, failed seals, or movement in fittings, and water often travels before it becomes visible. That is why a shower leak can look minor while still damaging framing or flooring underneath. Fixed Today Plumbing can carry out targeted leak detection where needed, then quote the repair once the leak source and access are confirmed.

Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing services Newtown (2042) and all Sydney metro areas. Localised dispatch points across Sydney help allocate the nearest available licensed field technician, especially for urgent work.

Can you clear blocked drains and sewers in Newtown?

Yes, Fixed Today Plumbing clears blocked drains and sewers in Newtown using tools such as CCTV drain cameras and high-pressure water jetting. Clearing restores flow, and inspection helps confirm whether the blockage is a one-off or linked to pipe damage. If structural issues are found, repair options are explained and quoted once the scope is established.
