Licensed plumbers for Asquith flats and houses, day or night
A leak under the sink or a hot water unit that’s gone cold needs a licensed plumber in Asquith. Our plumber Asquith team takes calls at any hour, for units, townhouses and detached homes.
We give you the price before any work starts, and it holds once you approve it. Evening and weekend rates differ from daytime rates, so we quote the price first.
Which plumbing problems do Asquith homes get most?
The 2021 Census counted 1,079 flats or apartments and 935 separate houses in Asquith. The jobs differ between the two, but four come up again and again.
Leaks you can’t see
A water bill that climbs or a damp patch on a wall points to a pipe leaking out of sight. Our water leak detection work finds where the water is going.
Drains that keep blocking
A camera inspection shows whether the line needs clearing or repair. If you’ve had drains that keep blocking, the camera shows why.
Hot water that runs cold
A unit that goes cold halfway through a shower needs a repair or a swap. We cover hot water faults on gas and electric units.
Taps and toilets that won’t stop
A tap that drips overnight or a cistern that refills on its own pushes the water bill up. A worn washer or a sticking float valve is a common cause.
Who looks after which pipes at your place?
Sydney Water says property owners are generally responsible for their own pipes and equipment up to where they connect to its services. Water mains and meters are usually Sydney Water’s responsibility. Its page on maintaining your service sets out the detail.
Sydney Water also says you must keep its water meter free from damage. It says the owner clears any tree roots that enter the wastewater junction at the point of connection.
Emergency plumber Asquith: any hour, day or night
A burst pipe at midnight or a toilet that floods on a Sunday can’t wait for opening hours. Call 1300 164 206 and a licensed plumber answers. Evening and weekend rates differ, and you get the price before we start.
In a block of flats, a leak from shared pipes is a job for your strata manager or committee. Tenants should tell their landlord first.
- Shut the water off at the main tap.
- Turn off the power at the board if water has reached power points or lights.
- Lift valuables off the floor.
- Call us, then keep the area clear until the plumber arrives.
Gas fitting and hot water for Asquith households
A gas cooktop swap, a heater move or a new bayonet point is gasfitting, and only a licensed gasfitter can do it. Our licensed gas plumbing covers connections, appliance changes and pressure tests.
A storage hot water unit holds a tank of heated water. An instantaneous unit heats water as it flows through. Each type comes in gas and electric versions.
If your block is on bush fire prone land and you’re building, the NSW Rural Fire Service says above-ground water and gas pipes need to be metal. Hornsby Shire Council says a property is considered bush fire prone if the mapped vegetation or its buffer intersects the property. Its page says the current map is on the council’s mapping system and the RFS website.
If you smell gas, get everyone outside and leave the switches alone. Call us from outside, at any hour.

Do I need approval for plumbing work in Asquith?
A plumber submits a Notice of Work before starting a job that needs an inspection. NSW says emergency work and minor works, such as replacing tap ware or an existing hot water system, don’t need one.
When the job’s done, a Certificate of Compliance confirms the work meets the plumbing regulations and the Plumbing Code of Australia. Ask for your copy and keep it with the house papers.

Almost half of Asquith’s homes are flats. NSW says the owners corporation must repair and maintain common property, and it gives pipes as an example. Owners repair anything in their own property. In 2021, 780 Asquith homes were rented, and NSW says tenants should ask their landlord.
