Common questions

How Fast We Get to You

How fast can you get here?

We aim for same-day, and hit it more often than not. Call (02) 9140 0196 for a straight answer on timing for your specific job, never a guess dressed up as a promise.

Are you really available 24/7?

Yes. A real person answers the phone at 3am the same as 3pm, and a licensed plumber gets moving on genuine emergencies any hour of the day or night.

Do you work weekends and public holidays?

Every day of the year, including Christmas and long weekends. Plumbing problems don't check a calendar, and neither does our on-call roster.

How do I book?

Call (02) 9140 0196 for the fastest response, or use the contact form if it's not urgent and you'd prefer a callback. Either way, a real person follows up.

Common questions

Pricing, Quotes and the $65 Off

Is the quote really free?

Yes, always. We look at the problem, explain what's wrong, and quote it plainly before any work starts, at no cost whether you go ahead or not.

Does the price change once you start?

No, what you agree to upfront is what lands on the invoice. If something genuinely changes the scope once we're into it, we stop and requote before continuing, not after.

How does your upfront fixed pricing work?

We inspect the job, explain what's involved in plain English, then agree a fixed price with you before any tools come out. No hourly rate, no surprise add-ons.

What does the $65 off your first service cover?

It's applied automatically the first time you book with us, taken straight off the job total. No separate code, no fine print attached.

Common questions

The Gladesville Questions

Do you take on local new builds and renovation work?

Yes, alongside the emergency side of what we do. Renovations across Gladesville often turn up old pipework behind the wall being opened, and we handle both the discovery and the fix.

What suburbs do you service around Gladesville?

Ryde, Putney, Macquarie Park, Meadowbank and West Ryde, all covered on exactly the same terms as Gladesville itself. Our on-call team treats every one of them the same.

Why do Gladesville's older homes get plumbing emergencies?

Age, mostly. A lot of the housing here dates to the Federation era and inter-war subdivisions, and original galvanised and earthenware pipework from that period is well past reliable.

How local are you, really?

Gladesville is home turf for our on-call team, not a postcode we occasionally cover on a stretch. That closeness is why the local housing stock holds few surprises for us.

Common questions

Licensing, Insurance and Responsibility

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes, NSW plumbing licence #465156C, fully insured. Search verify.licence.nsw.gov.au whenever you'd like proof, every plumber we send carries the same credentials.

Who is responsible for a blocked sewer, me or Sydney Water?

The pipe running from your house to the property boundary is yours to maintain. Past that connection point, it becomes Sydney Water's, and working out which side a fault sits on is part of what we check before quoting.

Can I fix a plumbing emergency myself?

Some first steps are safe: shutting off the water at the meter, or leaving the property for a gas smell. Actual repairs need a licensed plumber under NSW law, both for safety and legality.

Can you check my licence number?

Absolutely, we'd rather you did. Lic #465156C is on the NSW public licensing register, no need to take our word for it.
