Plumbing FAQ's in Wentworth Point
Common questions about plumbing services in Wentworth Point, answered directly. If your question isn't covered here, call 1800 349 338 and we'll walk you through what's involved.
Should I hire a local plumbing specialist or attempt DIY repairs?
Licensed plumbers are required for work that affects water supply, drainage, or gas systems. DIY plumbing can void home warranties, fail building inspections, and create safety risks including gas leaks or water damage. Hiring a licensed Wentworth Point plumber ensures the work is compliant, safe, and covered by insurance and workmanship warranties.
How much do plumbing services cost in Wentworth Point?
Pricing depends on the scope of work, access conditions, parts required, and urgency. Fixed Today Plumbing provides a fixed-price quote once scope is confirmed onsite onsite, with no hidden fees. The price is by the job, not by the hour. Call-out fee status varies by suburb; confirm the call-out fee when booking for Wentworth Point.
What plumbing services do you offer in Wentworth Point?
We handle blocked drains, hot water system faults, gas fitting, broken pipes, leaking taps, toilet repairs, shower repairs, and roof and gutter leaks. This covers domestic and commercial properties across Wentworth Point, with both emergency and scheduled work available. All work is performed by NSW licensed plumbers and backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.
Do you provide quotes over the phone or onsite?
Accurate quoting requires onsite assessment to confirm the scope, access conditions, and parts needed. We attend the property, diagnose the issue using appropriate tools, then provide a fixed-price quote before work starts. You decide whether to proceed once the quote is explained and scope is confirmed on site.
What do licensed plumbers actually do?
Licensed plumbers install, repair, and maintain water supply systems, drainage lines, gas fittings, and sanitary fixtures in domestic and commercial properties. This includes diagnosing faults, clearing blockages, repairing leaks, installing hot water systems, and ensuring all work complies with Australian Standards and safety regulations.
How do I stop a toilet from running continuously?
A continuously running toilet usually indicates a failing flapper valve, stuck float, or deteriorated fill valve inside the cistern. Isolating the water supply (via the tap behind the toilet) temporarily stops the water flow, but the fault still needs repair. Book a licensed plumbing professional to diagnose and replace the failing component.
Can you fix a leaking shower head or mixer?
Yes. Leaking shower heads or mixers are typically caused by worn cartridges, washers, or failing thermostatic valves. We assess the shower system, identify the fault, then repair or replace the component. Most shower tap repairs are completed in a single visit, backed by our workmanship warranty.
Do you service all of Wentworth Point and surrounding areas?
Yes. Fixed Today Plumbing services the entire 2127 postcode and surrounding West Sydney suburbs, dispatching from our West Sydney hub. We also travel up to 60km from our base hubs for emergency callouts, with arrival timing dependent on current bookings and traffic conditions.
Can you unblock severely blocked drain issues?
Yes. We clear blocked drains using high-definition CCTV cameras to locate the blockage, then high-pressure water jetting to clear the line. This covers typical root intrusions, grease buildup, and debris blockages in accessible lines. If CCTV inspection reveals structural damage, we explain the repair options and quote separately.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency in Wentworth Point?
Urgent jobs are dispatched immediately from our West Sydney hub, with the nearest available technician allocated. Arrival timing depends on current bookings and traffic conditions, but an ETA is provided when you book. We operate 24/7, with emergency dispatch available 365 days a year for urgent plumbing faults.
