Plumber in North Parramatta

Fixed Today handles domestic and commercial plumbing across North Parramatta, covering everything from minor tap repairs through to full hot water unit installations and structural drainage work. The scope is confirmed during the first visit so you know exactly what's included before any work proceeds.

Blocked Drains and Drainage Clearing

Drainage blockages usually start with slow-draining sinks or toilets, then progress to gurgling sounds or backflow if the restriction isn't cleared. In older North Parramatta homes with terracotta pipes, tree roots from established garden plantings are a frequent cause; fine roots enter hairline cracks and expand over time, trapping debris and eventually restricting flow. In kitchen lines, fat and grease solidify as they cool, creating buildups that narrow the pipe and catch solid waste.

We locate the blockage using high-definition drain inspection cameras, which show the obstruction type, depth, and exact position within the property boundary. Once identified, we clear it with high-pressure water jetting that pulverises roots and scours grease from pipe walls, restoring near-full capacity without digging. If the camera reveals structural damage such as a collapsed section or severe root intrusion, we explain the options, typically patch repair or trenchless relining, and provide a fixed quote for the additional work before proceeding.

Burst and Leaking Pipes

A broken pipe typically announces itself through sudden water flow, pooling, or a dramatic drop in pressure. Leaks can be harder to detect, often showing up as damp patches on walls, ceiling stains, or unexplained spikes in water bills. Both situations risk property damage if not addressed quickly.

Our team isolates the water supply to stop further damage, then uses electronic leak detection equipment to pinpoint the exact location without unnecessary excavation. For accessible sections, we repair or replace the damaged length. Where the pipe runs beneath permanent structures like driveways or tiled bathrooms, we assess whether trenchless drain relining is suitable; this involves inserting a resin-saturated liner that cures in place, creating a seamless repair without demolition.

Hot Water Systems

Hot water failures usually present as no hot water at all, fluctuating temperatures, or rust-coloured water indicating internal corrosion. Storage systems can fail when the sacrificial anode rod deteriorates or sediment buildup insulates the heating element. Continuous flow gas units may develop burner faults or electronic control issues.

We service and install electric storage, gas continuous flow, and heat pump systems from major brands including Rheem, Dux, and Rinnai. Installation work must meet the National Construction Code and AS/NZS 3500 standards, which include mandatory Tempering Valves to prevent scalding and Pressure Relief Valves to manage tank pressure. We confirm the existing system type, explain replacement options suited to your household size and energy preferences, and provide a fixed-price quote covering supply, installation, and compliance certification before starting.

Gas Fitting and Gas Leak Detection

Gas work is tightly regulated. All installations, repairs, and alterations must be performed by a fully licensed gas fitter and require a compliance certificate verifying the work meets AS/NZS 5601.1 safety standards. If you smell gas, characterised by the added mercaptan odour resembling rotten eggs, turn off the gas at the meter, ventilate the area, and arrange immediate assessment.

We use combustible gas detectors and thermal imaging to locate leaks behind walls or in sub-floor spaces. Once repaired, the system undergoes a pressure loss test to confirm it's gas-tight before being recommissioned. We also handle new gas appliance installations and gas line extensions, providing the required compliance documentation upon completion.

Our work covers general domestic and commercial plumbing including kitchen plumbing, bathroom renovations, toilet repairs, leaking tap fixes, and backflow prevention device testing. If the job involves something outside standard residential work, we confirm capability and scope during the first call.

When a plumbing fault disrupts your routine, whether it's no hot water before work, a blocked toilet during a family gathering, or a leak discovered when you're about to head out, the priority is getting it sorted quickly by someone who knows what they're doing. Fixed Today Plumbing has been handling those situations across North Parramatta and the broader Western Sydney area for over 15 years.

We're available around the clock for genuine emergencies. That means active leaks, gas odours, or complete loss of water or drainage function. Urgent jobs are dispatched immediately, with arrival timing depending on current bookings and traffic conditions between the dispatch hub and your location. For non-urgent work like a dripping tap, a planned hot water replacement, or a routine maintenance check, we can schedule a convenient time during the booking call.

Arrival communication is part of the process. When you book, we provide an ETA where possible and update you if delays occur. Technicians call ahead when they're close, giving you time to meet them or arrange access. If you're coordinating with a property manager, tenant, or strata committee for entry, let us know during booking so we can accommodate available access windows and site requirements.

Our work covers residential homes, strata complexes, and commercial premises. In practice, that means everything from replacing a leaking flexi hose under a kitchen sink through to diagnosing recurring drainage issues in a multi-level apartment block or installing gas appliances in a commercial kitchen. The common thread is the same assessment-first approach: confirm what's happening, explain what it means, quote the fix, complete it properly, and verify the outcome before leaving.

We keep noise and disruption as low as practical during occupied home or business work, isolate the work area where feasible, and take reasonable care around finished surfaces like stone benchtops, tiled bathrooms, and timber floors. If there's a specific access instruction, parking constraint, or site induction requirement, mention it when booking. Strata properties sometimes have restricted access time slots or require sign-in procedures; we follow those protocols and provide job documentation suitable for maintenance logs where needed.

If you're unsure whether your situation is urgent or can wait, call us. We'll ask a few questions to assess risk, Is water actively flowing? Can you smell gas? Is the drain completely blocked or just slow?, and recommend immediate dispatch if there's a safety concern or property damage risk. Otherwise, we'll book a time that works for your schedule. The phone line is staffed 24/7, so you're not waiting until business hours to get clarity.
