Looking for a Specific Type of Plumber in Willoughby East?

Fixed Today Plumbing provides licensed plumbing and gas fitting services in Willoughby East, NSW, covering standard repairs, installations, and 24/7 emergency jobs. We dispatch from local hubs across Sydney's North Shore, and urgent jobs are sent out immediately with ETA updates provided when booking. This covers typical commercial and domestic work; if inspection shows something outside standard scope, we explain the options and confirm pricing before any additional work starts.

With over 15 years operating in Sydney and a team of NSW-licensed plumbers, we handle blocked drains, hot water breakdowns, gas leakages, ruptured pipes, and general maintenance. Every job starts with an onsite assessment to confirm what's needed, followed by a flat-rate quote before work begins. You decide once scope is clear and the price is locked in.

We're a family-owned business with comprehensive Public Liability and Workers Compensation insurance. That means if accidental property damage happens during the work, you're protected under our policy. Our Lifetime Labour Warranty covers the workmanship we complete, and we provide receipts and documentation suitable for landlords, agents, and strata records.

How We Work in Willoughby East

Our process in Willoughby East follows a consistent sequence: diagnose the issue onsite, confirm what's involved, provide a fixed quote with no hidden fees, complete the work to Australian plumbing standards, then test and verify before leaving. We arrive in uniform, use drop sheets to protect floors, and clean up the work area at the end of the job.

Pricing is by the job, not by the hour. The quote you receive covers the work described, and that price doesn't change unless you request additional scope. We explain inclusions and exclusions before starting, so there's no confusion about what's covered. For jobs requiring compliance paperwork (such as gas work or Sydney Water-regulated drainage), we provide the paperwork once work is complete.

All attending technicians are NSW-licensed plumbers, and police and background checks are completed for our team. You can request identity confirmation at the door if needed. We keep noise and disruption as low as practical, and we coordinate access with property managers, strata, or tenants when required.

Fixed-Price Quoting

We provide upfront fixed quotes after confirming scope onsite. The price is by the job, not by the hour, and it doesn't change unless you request additional work.

Over 15 Years in Sydney

We've been operating in Sydney since 2010, with a near-perfect 5-star rating based on 800+ verified reviews. Our work is backed by a Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.

24/7 Emergency Dispatch

Urgent jobs are sent out immediately from local dispatch points across the North Shore. We provide ETA updates when booking and coordinate arrival around access constraints.

Licensed & Insured in NSW

All work is completed by NSW-licensed plumbers (Licence 305428C). We carry comprehensive Public Liability and Workers Compensation insurance for your protection.

Hot Water Systems

When a water heater fails in Willoughby East, it's usually due to a failing element in electric storage tanks, a faulty gas valve or pilot assembly in continuous flow units, or sediment buildup that insulates the heat source and reduces efficiency. We assess the system onsite, confirm the fault, and explain whether repair or replacement makes sense based on the unit's age and the cost to fix it.

Our team installs, repairs, and maintains electric storage, gas continuous flow, heat pump, and solar hot water systems. Brands we work with regularly include Rheem, Dux, Rinnai, and other major manufacturers. Installation work includes mandatory Tempering Valves (to prevent scalding) and Pressure Relief Valves (to manage tank pressure safely), as required by Australian Standards.

We confirm the existing system type, your household's hot water service needs, and any space or access constraints before recommending an option. The fixed quote covers the unit, installation labour, compliance requirements, and removal of the old system where applicable. All new installations come with the manufacturer's warranty on the unit itself, plus our Lifetime Labour Warranty on the installation work.

Blocked Drains

Blocked drains across Sydney properties usually trace back to tree root intrusion in older terracotta or clay pipes, or Fat, Oil, and Grease (FOG) buildup in kitchen lines. We use high-definition CCTV drain cameras to locate the obstruction, identify the pipe material and condition, and confirm whether the blockage can be cleared or if the pipe has structural damage requiring repair.

Once the camera confirms the cause, we clear the blockage using high-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting), which scours debris from pipe walls and restores near-full flow capacity. If the footage shows cracks, root penetration, or collapsed sections, we explain the repair options, such as trenchless drain relining or excavation, and provide a separate quote for that work before proceeding.

After clearing, we run the camera again to verify the line is open and check for any remaining issues. The camera footage is available for your records, which is useful for insurance claims, strata documentation, or future reference. Drainage work that affects Sydney Water infrastructure requires compliance with their standards, and we handle that coordination where applicable.

Leaking Taps and Fixtures

A dripping tap wastes water and becomes an ongoing annoyance. In most cases, the cause is a worn washer, a deteriorated O-ring, or a faulty ceramic disc cartridge inside the tap body. We assess the tap type, source the correct replacement part, and complete the repair onsite. If the tap body itself is corroded or cracked, we discuss replacement options and provide a quote for a new fixture before proceeding.

This also applies to leaking shower heads, mixer taps, and outdoor taps. Where possible, we use premium replacement parts to extend the service life of the repair. The work is tested under normal operating pressure prior to leaving, and we check for any leaks around the base or handle during operation.

Roof & Gutter Repairs

Roof and gutter leaks in Sydney homes often show up after heavy rain, when blocked downpipes cause water to overflow and seep into ceiling cavities or walls. We inspect the gutter system, clear blockages, check for rust or damage in the gutter lining, and confirm that downpipes are securely connected and draining correctly into stormwater lines.

Where roof flashing has lifted or valley iron has deteriorated, water can penetrate behind tiles or under roofing sheets. We assess the affected area, confirm what's needed to make it weatherproof, and provide a fixed quote for the repair. Stormwater drainage issues are also covered, including relining or replacing damaged underground stormwater pipes where tree roots or ground movement have caused fractures.

Given Sydney's unpredictable storm season, it's worth checking gutters and downpipes before wet weather arrives. If you're seeing water stains on ceilings or walls, it's best to book an inspection before the damage spreads to structural timber or plasterwork.

Shower Repairs

Shower issues in Willoughby East properties range from dripping mixer taps and low water pressure to leaking shower bases and failing grout or silicone seals. We start by confirming where the water is escaping, whether it's from the tap assembly, the shower head connection, or through compromised waterproofing behind tiles.

For tap and mixer repairs, we replace worn cartridges, washers, or seals and test under full pressure. If the shower base is leaking into the subfloor or affecting rooms below, that usually points to failed waterproofing or cracked grout lines. We assess the extent of the damage, explain whether a localised repair is viable or if a full resealing or base replacement is needed, then provide a quote before starting any invasive work.

Shower renovations and upgrades are also covered, including replacing old fixtures, upgrading to water-efficient shower heads, and installing new mixer taps. We confirm your preferences and any budget constraints before recommending options.

Toilet Repairs

A toilet that keeps running, won't flush properly, or leaks at the base creates both water waste and hygiene concerns. Running toilets usually have a faulty flapper valve or fill valve inside the cistern, which allows water to trickle continuously into the bowl. We replace the failing component, adjust the float mechanism, and test the flush cycle to confirm it's sealing correctly.

Leaks around the toilet base often indicate a deteriorated wax seal or a cracked pan, both of which require the toilet to be removed, inspected, and either resealed or replaced. Blocked toilets are cleared using manual augering or, where necessary, camera inspection to confirm there's no deeper obstruction in the sewer line.

For full toilet replacements, we confirm the rough-in measurement (the distance from the wall to the centre of the waste outlet), recommend a suitable model, and handle removal and installation in one visit where parts are available. All waste is disposed of responsibly, and the area is left clean and ready to use.

Gas Fitting

Gas work in NSW must be completed by a fully properly licensed gasfitter and, in most cases, requires a compliance certificate to verify the installation or repair meets safety standards. We hold a current NSW gas fitting licence (305428C) and complete all work to AS/NZS 5601.1 standards, which govern gas installation safety and testing procedures across Australia.

Our gas fitting services cover new appliance installations (cooktops, ovens, hot water systems, heaters), gas leak detection and repair, and compliance inspections. Gas leak detection uses specialized equipment such as combustible gas detectors or thermal imaging to locate leaks behind walls, in subfloors, or around buried lines. Once identified, the faulty section is isolated, repaired or replaced, and pressure-tested to confirm the system is gas-tight before being recommissioned.

If you smell gas (a distinctive "rotten egg" odour caused by added mercaptan), hear hissing near an appliance, or notice soot buildup on burners, turn off the gas supply at the meter, ventilate the area, and call us immediately. Gas safety is not negotiable, and we treat all gas-related callouts as urgent.

Burst & Leaking Pipes

A broken pipe is usually urgent. Water escapes fast, and the longer it runs, the more damage occurs to floors, walls, ceilings, and anything stored nearby. If you can safely access the water meter or isolation valve, turning off the main supply is the immediate priority while waiting for a plumber to arrive. We dispatch emergency jobs immediately and provide an ETA when you book.

Once onsite, we locate the burst or leak using visual inspection and, where necessary, electronic ultrasonic leak detection equipment to find hidden leaks behind walls or under slabs. The damaged section is isolated, cut out, and replaced with new pipework, then tested under pressure to confirm the repair is secure and there are no secondary leaks.

Leaking pipes that haven't burst yet, such as weeping joints, pinhole leaks in copper, or corrosion in galvanized steel are also worth addressing before they fail completely. We assess the affected section, explain whether a localized repair will hold or if a larger section needs replacing, and provide a quote based on the confirmed scope.

Strata Plumbing

Strata plumbing work involves coordinating access, managing common property boundaries, and providing clear documentation for building managers and strata committees. We work within booking windows set by strata managers, confirm access to affected areas in advance, and keep disruption to shared spaces as low as practical.

Common strata jobs include unblocking shared drainage lines, repairing hot water systems in common areas, fixing leaks in risers that service multiple units, and handling emergency service calls for broken pipes or sewer overflows. We provide receipts, job documentation, and photos where needed for strata records and insurance claims.

For planned maintenance programs, we can schedule regular inspections of hot water systems, drainage lines, and pressure-reducing valves across the complex. This helps identify issues before they become urgent and allows the strata committee to budget for repairs in advance. We also clarify responsibility boundaries between lot owner and common property when there's uncertainty about who handles the repair.

General Plumbing

General plumbing covers a broad range of maintenance, repairs, and installations that don't fit neatly into emergency or specialist categories. This includes tap and fixture replacements, toilet installations, minor pipe repairs, dishwasher and washing machine connections, and upgrading old fixtures to water-efficient models.

Our vans carry a wide range of parts, fixtures, and fittings, which means many standard jobs can be completed in one visit without waiting for parts to be ordered. Where a specific fixture or part needs to be sourced, we confirm lead times and schedule the installation once everything is available.

We also handle bathroom renovations, kitchen plumbing upgrades, and laundry reconfigurations. These jobs involve coordinating with other trades (tilers, electricians, builders), managing demolition and rough-in work, and ensuring all plumbing is correctly installed and tested before finishes are applied. We provide detailed quotes for renovation work, breaking down each stage so you understand what's included and when the work will be completed.

Emergency Plumbing

Plumbing emergencies don't wait for business hours. When a sewer line collapses, a hot water unit floods a laundry, or a gas leak is detected, the situation needs immediate attention to prevent property damage, safety risks, or complete loss of essential services.

Our 24/7 emergency plumbing service dispatches the nearest available technician from local hubs across Sydney. Urgent jobs are prioritised and sent out immediately, with ETA updates provided when you book. We arrive with fully stocked vehicles, diagnostic equipment, and the authority to make decisions onsite about what's needed to make the situation safe and restore function.

Emergency scenarios we handle include major drain blockages causing sewage backup, broken pipes flooding living areas, gas leaks requiring immediate isolation and repair, and complete hot water unit failures in winter. Once the immediate risk is managed, we explain what caused the failure, what's needed for a permanent fix, and provide a quote for any follow-up work required beyond the emergency response.

If you're unsure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, a brief phone call is enough. We'll assess the urgency and either dispatch immediately or schedule a same-day visit depending on the risk level and your availability.

Commercial Plumbing

Commercial plumbing services in Willoughby East covers office buildings, retail premises, medical centres, cafes, and light industrial sites. Downtime in a commercial setting often means lost revenue, disrupted operations, or health and safety compliance issues, so speed and reliability are priorities.

We schedule commercial work around your operating hours where possible, including after-hours and weekend callouts to avoid interrupting business. Common commercial jobs include clearing blocked drains in restaurant kitchens, repairing ruptured pipes in ceiling spaces, servicing hot water systems in gyms or medical suites, and installing or maintaining grease traps and backflow prevention devices.

For planned maintenance contracts, we provide scheduled inspections and servicing to reduce the likelihood of emergency failures. This includes checking hot water systems, testing backflow devices, inspecting drainage lines with CCTV, and replacing worn fixtures before they fail. We provide detailed service reports and compliance documentation where required for council, health department, or insurer records.

All commercial work is completed by licensed plumbers with experience in commercial environments, and we follow site induction procedures, sign-in requirements, and safe work practices as required by the premises.

Plumbing Questions: Willoughby East

These are the questions Willoughby East residents ask most often. If your question isn't covered here, call 1800 349 338 and we'll answer it directly.

How much does a typical plumbing job cost in Willoughby East?

We don't provide prices until we've confirmed the scope onsite, because what looks like a simple leak can involve hidden damage or access issues that change the work required. Once we assess the job, we provide a fixed-price quote before starting. The price is by the job, not by the hour, and it doesn't change unless you request additional work. Confirm the call-out fee status when you book.

Do you charge a call-out fee in Willoughby East?

Many Sydney service areas have no call-out fee, but policies vary by suburb and job type. Check the call-out fee status when booking. If a call-out fee applies, it's disclosed upfront and typically deducted from the final invoice if you proceed with the quoted work. We don't charge for the quote itself once we're onsite.

How fast can you reach Willoughby East for an emergency?

Urgent jobs are dispatched immediately from the nearest available hub. We provide an ETA when you book, which depends on current job load, traffic conditions, and your location within Willoughby East. For most North Shore addresses, response times are reliable due to our local dispatch coverage. Same-day service is also available for non-emergency work where scheduling allows.

What causes blocked drains in Willoughby East properties?

Blockages in Sydney homes typically result from tree root intrusion in older terracotta or clay pipes, or Fat, Oil, and Grease buildup in kitchen lines. We use CCTV cameras to confirm the cause and location, then clear it with high-pressure water jetting. If the camera shows structural damage, we explain the repair options and provide a separate quote before proceeding.

Can you fix a hot water system on the same day?

If the repair involves replacing a standard component like an element, thermostat, or valve, and we have the part in stock, most repairs are completed in one visit. If the system needs replacement or requires a specialist part, we confirm lead times and schedule the installation once everything is available. We explain the options and timeframes once the fault is diagnosed.

Do I need to be home for the plumber to attend?

For occupied homes, yes; someone needs to be present to provide access, explain the issue, and approve the quoted work. For rental properties, strata units, or commercial premises, we can coordinate access with agents, property managers, or tenants. Let us know the access arrangement when booking, and we'll confirm arrival timing in advance.

What's included in your warranty?

Our Lifetime Labour Warranty covers the workmanship we complete. If a repair fails due to how the work was performed, we'll return and fix it at no charge. This doesn't cover parts that fail due to normal wear or external factors, but manufacturer warranties apply to any new fixtures, appliances, or components we install. We explain warranty coverage when providing the quote.

Are your plumbers licensed and insured?

All attending technicians are licensed plumbers in NSW, and our business holds current Public Liability and Workers Compensation insurance. Public Liability protects you if accidental property damage occurs during the work. Workers Compensation relates to workplace injuries. We also complete police and background checks for all team members, and you can request identity confirmation at the door.

Can you clear a drain blockage without digging up the yard?

In many cases, yes. We use hydro jetting to clear blockages through existing access points like inspection openings or gully traps. If the pipe is structurally damaged, trenchless drain relining can repair it without excavation. Where the damage is too severe or access is limited, excavation may be required. We confirm the approach once CCTV footage shows the pipe condition.

What should I do if I smell gas in my Willoughby East home?

Turn off the gas supply at the meter, open windows to ventilate the area, don't operate any electrical switches or create sparks, and evacuate if the smell is strong. Then call us immediately, we treat all gas leaks as urgent and dispatch a licensed gas fitter to locate and repair the leak. Gas work requires pressure testing after repair to confirm the system is safe before being turned back on.
