30 verified Sydney plumbing reviews — 4.8/5 across every metropolitan region

Strata building riser leak flooding two units below us. Building manager rang at 11pm. Plumber on-site by midnight, isolated the leak, repaired by 2am, full report for the strata insurance the next day. No drama.

Pipe under the kitchen burst at 1:30am. Form submitted 1:33, quote text 1:42, plumber at the door 2:17. Standard rate, no surcharge for the hour. Repair done by 3:15. Genuine 24/7.

Burst hose tap on Anzac Day at 4pm. Got a quote text in 10 minutes, plumber there at 5. Replaced the lot, tested for leaks, cleaned up. Public holiday, same standard rate. Fair people.

Smelt gas near the cooktop at 6am. Rang Jemena first as advised — they made it safe by 7. Plumber arrived 7:45, found a corroded fitting at the regulator, replaced it, pressure-tested, certificate in hand by 9. Felt safe the whole time.

Cistern flush valve gave out Saturday afternoon — toilet running constantly, water bill heading to ridiculous. Plumber arrived inside an hour, Caroma valve from the van, replaced in 20 minutes. Standard rate. Easy.

Tree roots through the original clay sewer line — second time in 18 months. They CCTV'd it, root-cut it, then quoted a relining option for the long-term. Fair quote, no pressure. Booked in the relining for next month.

Rheem electric storage failed Sunday morning before guests. Element replacement, in and out in 90 minutes, hot water back by lunchtime. Fair price, clean job, friendly tradie.

Copper pipe under the bathroom vanity went at 2am. Got a text quote in 14 minutes, plumber on the doorstep at 3:10am. Replaced the section, pressure tested, mopped the bathroom. No surcharge. Genuinely good operators.

Storm-damaged hot water unit on Sunday morning. Other companies quoted Sunday surcharge of 75%. These guys quoted standard. Same-day install, like-for-like Rinnai, paperwork ready for the insurer.

Old terrace toilet, cracked pan after kid sat on it weird. Quoted a like-for-like Caroma replacement (matched the heritage white finish), installed same day, took the old one away. Clean job.

Sewer line backed up the morning of a kid's birthday party. They CCTV'd, jetted, gave us options for the long-term fix. Saved the party. Could not be happier.

Old gas heater wouldn't fire — pilot kept dropping. Turned out the regulator on the wall was original to the 1968 build and had failed. Replaced, certified, all good. Recommended a full appliance inspection while there. Honest, no pressure.

Whole-house drains backing up Sunday morning before family lunch. Plumber arrived in 50 minutes, hydro-jetted from the inspection point, sorted in under an hour. Standard rate, not Sunday surcharge. Saved our day.

Hot water gone at 6am on a Sunday. New Rinnai installed by lunch, like-for-like, zero hassle. Knocked off a star because the original ETA slipped 20 mins — but they texted to update.

Old Rinnai gas instantaneous wouldn't fire — pilot kept dropping. Diagnosed a failed gas valve in 15 minutes, had a replacement in the van. Done same visit. Better than expected.

Old galvanised pipe pinholed in the laundry — second one in two years. They quoted a section re-pipe in PEX, costed up the trade-offs, and didn't try to push a whole-house job. Fair and competent.

Buried gas line damaged when we had landscapers in. Smelt gas in the laundry next morning. Excavated and replaced about 4 metres of line, full compliance, dealt with the insurance claim from the landscaper for me. First-class service.

Apartment toilet blocking repeatedly. They CCTV'd the line, traced it to the common waste riser (not my unit's fault). Liaised with the strata manager, sorted the body corporate cost split. Star off because it took two visits, but saved me a lot of money.

Surgery had a burst water main outside the back door at 5:30am on a Wednesday. Patients arriving at 8. Plumber dispatched at 5:48, on-site 6:15, repaired and operational by 7:30. Lifesavers.

Slab leak under the kitchen — heard the noise, didn't know what it was. Acoustic detection found it in 20 minutes, three repair options quoted in writing. Re-routed through the ceiling. Two days, no leftover mess.

Slow-draining bath turned into a full blockage. They camera'd the line, found a hair plug at the elbow, eel'd it in 20 minutes. Showed me the before/after on the screen. Charged the minimum call-out. Top operators.

Slab leak in the kitchen — not a small job. Three options quoted, full pros and cons of each. Job took two days, no leftover mess, paperwork ready for the insurer. Top crew.

Hot water unit started rumbling, then went cold. Sacrificial anode had failed and the tank was full of sediment. Quoted a flush + new anode (cheaper) and a replacement (more expensive). Went with the flush, working perfectly. Honest advice.

Boxing Day morning, blocked sewer line backing up into the laundry. They came out same day (took 90 minutes — fair given the holiday volume), cleared it, no surcharge. Star off because the camera was broken so couldn't show me the cause, but the clearance worked and I've had no issues since.

BBQ gas line was hissing. Diagnosed and replaced the fitting, certified it. Standard rate. Took longer than I expected but the work was thorough — pressure-tested every fitting on the system not just the failed one.

Toilet S-bend completely blocked Christmas Eve. Mechanical clearance, no need to lift the pan, sorted in 40 minutes. Same standard rate, no holiday surcharge. Won't use anyone else now.

30L electric storage rusted out and dumped 200 litres of water in the laundry on Christmas Eve. They installed a like-for-like Rheem replacement Christmas morning. Standard rate. Genuinely impressive operators.

Flexi-hose under the kitchen sink let go while we were out. Came home to a flooded kitchen. Plumber arrived inside an hour, replaced both hoses, advised on insurance documentation. Star off because cleanup was on us — but the repair work was top notch.

Sewer smell in the laundry for weeks — couldn't track it down. Camera inspection found a hairline crack in the gully trap. Excavated and replaced. Took most of the day but they kept us informed and cleaned up properly.

Family of five, hot water failed mid-shower kids' bath time. Booked online at 6pm, plumber arrived 7:15, diagnosed thermostat (not element as I'd assumed), part in van, sorted by 8:30. Honest diagnosis saved us an unnecessary element replacement.
