Services

Help for common home plumbing faults

We help Darlinghurst homeowners with general plumbing, hot water, blocked drains, leaks, gas work and urgent faults. Tell us what stopped working and where it appeared. Keep clear of flooding or sewage; if gas may be present, leave the area, avoid switches and flames, then call us from somewhere safe.

Hot Water Repairs and Replacements

Cold, unstable, rusty or leaking hot water calls for a careful check. We assess the unit, valves, controls, visible leaks and safely accessible energy supply before suggesting a repair or replacement.

We then explain the practical choices, likely disruption and proposed price. Nothing proceeds until you decide which option suits your home.

  • Hot water fault assessment
  • Temperature and pressure checks
  • Repair and replacement options
  • System advice for your household

Blocked Drain Clearing

One slow drain may have a nearby blockage, while several noisy, smelly or overflowing fixtures can suggest a restriction further along. We identify the affected points, inspect accessible pipework and consider whether CCTV would improve the assessment.

The findings guide a practical clearing method and any further checks. We explain those steps and their proposed price before seeking approval.

  • Slow drain and overflow assessment
  • Suitable clearing methods explained
  • Camera inspection when warranted
  • Pipework repair options discussed

Urgent

Leak Detection and Pipe Repairs

Damp surfaces, ceiling stains, peeling paint or unexplained water use can indicate a concealed leak. We inspect accessible plumbing and use suitable diagnostic tools where they can narrow the likely area without unnecessary opening.

Once the location is clearer, we outline access, repair options and price. You approve the work first, and we test the completed repair.

  • Hidden leak symptom assessment
  • Diagnostic equipment where useful
  • Practical access and repair choices
  • Testing after completed plumbing work

Gas Fitting and Repairs

Our licensed gas fitters assess suspected leaks, appliance problems and installation requirements. If gas could be present, treat it as a separate safety concern: leave the area, avoid switches and flames, then phone us from somewhere safe. We explain the findings, proposed gas work and price, then wait for your approval.

We complete only the gas work you approve. Once we complete the gas work, we test it, then provide any required compliance documents.

  • Licensed gas fault assessment
  • Gas line repairs and connections
  • Gas appliance installation work
  • Compliance paperwork where required

General Plumbing Repairs

Running toilets, dripping taps, noisy pipes, pressure changes and leaking fixtures are common plumbing problems. We examine the affected fitting and accessible pipework, then compare repair or replacement choices and give the proposed price.

After you approve the agreed work, we complete it and test the result. At handover, we explain what was done and note any useful follow-up.

  • Leaking fixture and pipe checks
  • Tap and toilet repair options
  • Water pressure problems assessed
  • New fixture installation plumbing

Toilet Repairs

A toilet that leaks at the pan, fills continuously, flushes poorly or blocks repeatedly can involve the fixture, connections or drain. We inspect the toilet in context and check accessible plumbing so the next step reflects what those checks indicate.

We then compare practical repair or replacement options, including access and likely disruption, and provide the proposed price. You choose whether the outlined work proceeds.

  • Toilet filling and flushing checks
  • Valve and seal repair options
  • Base leak and pan resealing
  • Connected drain assessment
Book a toilet repair

Leaking Tap and Fixture Repairs

A stiff, dripping or leaking tap may involve its washer, seal, cartridge, fixture or accessible connection. We inspect the tap and surrounding surfaces, then explain which repair or replacement choices fit what the checks indicate.

Before work begins, you receive the proposed scope and price for approval. We complete the agreed option, test the tap and talk through the result at handover.

  • Tap shut-off and stiffness checks
  • Washer seal or cartridge replacement
  • Fixture repair or replacement options
  • Agreed tap work tested

Bathroom Plumbing and Renovations

A bathroom renovation can involve fixture positions, water supply, drainage, waterproofing and access. Our plumbers complete the fixture replacement plus water and waste connections included in the agreed plumbing scope.

We clarify that scope and access before starting, while identifying separate building, tiling or waterproofing tasks that need another trade.

  • Plumbing for new bathroom fixtures
  • Water and waste connections updated
  • Renovation plumbing completed
  • Builder or trade tasks made clear

Before vs After

Trace the likely source before repairs

Visible water damage can sit away from its plumbing source. We assess the area and accessible services to narrow the likely cause or recognise when another trade may be involved. We explain proposed plumbing work and price before approval.

Before

Damage is visible, but the source is not

  • The visible symptom has no confirmed source
  • A repair is chosen before the cause is checked
  • Access or price changes are left unexplained
  • The same symptom returns without further testing
  • There is no clear handover record
Licensed Fixed Today plumber giving a thumbs up

After

Source known, plumbing repair tested

  • The fault is checked with a suitable diagnostic method
  • The likely cause and repair options are explained
  • The scope and price are approved before paid work
  • The result is tested before handover
  • Relevant invoice, warranty and compliance records are supplied

The urgent leak, and a two other less urgent tap repairs were performed promptly and professionally. I have now found a plumber-of-choice, and can highly recommend Fixed Today Plumbing’s services.

Required an emergency call as hot water system had not heated. Technician arrived within the hour and found that the relay switch on the electrical board was faulty. Joe contacted the energy supplier and arranged replacement; this was attended on the same day - Sunday. Great service.

What we check

Why one symptom may have several plumbing causes

A household drain may narrow because of grease, roots or damaged pipework. Damp marks can involve plumbing, seals or waterproofing; hot-water faults can involve controls, valves or supply. Our check covers private pipework, and we explain when Sydney Water may need to investigate the public wastewater network.

  • Mature street trees

    Decades-old plane and fig roots find every hairline gap in the sewer line.

  • Pre-1990s housing stock

    Original copper and earthenware drainage is reaching end of service life.

  • Reactive clay soil

    Sydney clay expands and contracts with the wet/dry cycle, stressing rigid pipework.

  • Heavy summer downpours

    Stormwater systems sized for 1970s rainfall struggle with modern intensities.

Before the visit

Help us prepare for your visit

Before we attend, tell us about the affected fixture and any flooding or sewage, with a suspected gas leak noted separately. Add safe photos, access instructions and the right contact person. Our on-site assessment will still guide the repair options.

Why licensing matters

Licensed plumber vs. unlicensed worker

Plumbing work in NSW must be carried out by a licensed plumber. It is not just a formality, licensing protects your home, your insurance, and your right to recourse if something goes wrong.

Licensed plumber

What you get

  • Work is insured and meets the National Plumbing Code
  • Compliance Certificate issued for every job
  • Home insurance and warranty stay valid
  • Statutory warranty backed by NSW Fair Trading
  • Clear path to dispute resolution if needed
Unlicensed worker

What you risk

  • Work may breach the NSW Plumbing and Drainage Act
  • No Compliance Certificate: issues at resale
  • Home insurance claims commonly denied
  • No statutory warranty on the work performed
  • Limited recourse: Fair Trading cannot assist
Our NSW Plumbing Licence 305428C PLATINUM HOT WATER AND PLUMBING PTY LIMITED

Most home insurance policies will not pay out for damage caused by unlicensed plumbing work. A burst hot water unit from a non-compliant install can void cover on the entire claim, often tens of thousands of dollars.
