Licensed plumbers for Bankstown units and houses, day or night
Water through a ceiling or a drain that won’t clear needs a licensed plumber in Bankstown. Our plumber Bankstown team answers calls at any hour, for apartments, townhouses and detached homes alike.
Each job gets a price before we start, and that price holds once you approve it. Evening and weekend rates differ from daytime rates, so we quote the figure first.
Which plumbing jobs come up most in Bankstown?
The 2021 Census counted 6,419 flats or apartments among Bankstown’s 10,980 occupied homes. In a flat, the first question with a leak is whose pipe it is.
Blocked drains
Grease, wipes and tree roots all choke a drain. A camera inspection shows whether clearing a blocked drain will hold or the pipe needs repair.
Hidden leaks
A damp wall or a water meter that keeps moving points to a leak out of sight. We use leak detection for hidden pipes before anything is opened up.
Hot water that gives out
A unit that runs cold halfway through a shower needs a repair or a replacement. We handle repairs to hot water systems and tell you when replacing makes more sense.
Taps and toilets
A dripping mixer or a cistern that never stops filling wastes water. The cause can be a worn washer or a stuck float valve.
Who looks after which pipes in Bankstown?
Sydney Water says the owner is normally responsible for private water and wastewater pipes up to where they connect to its services. If Sydney Water serves your property, a leak on your side of that point is yours to fix. Its pipe ownership guide shows where the line falls.
In a strata building the answer changes again. The NSW Government’s strata repairs page says that in most cases owners are responsible for plumbing in internal walls and fixtures, such as baths, toilets, sinks and showers. The owners corporation is responsible for plumbing in boundary walls and under the floor.
A water meter that keeps moving with every tap and appliance off points to a leak somewhere on the property. You can check it yourself. Turn everything off and watch the dial for a few minutes.
Emergency plumber Bankstown: any hour, day or night
A burst pipe at midnight or a sewer overflow on a Saturday 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. See how our emergency plumbing callouts run.
Find your main tap before you need it. If Sydney Water serves your home, it says it owns the water main and the water meter at your property.
- Turn the water off at the main tap, or at the unit’s isolation valve if you have one.
- Switch off the power at the switchboard if water has reached power points or lights.
- Open the lowest tap to drain the pipes.
- Lift valuables off the floor, then call us.
Plumber Bankstown: hot water and gas fitting for households
A storage hot water unit keeps a tank of heated water ready. An instantaneous unit heats water as it flows through. Both come in gas and electric versions, and either one is quoted as a fixed job.
Connecting a new gas cooktop, shifting a heater or adding a bayonet fitting is licensed gasfitting work. Our gas fitting work covers new connections and appliance swaps.
If you smell gas, get everyone outside and don’t touch switches or appliances. Call us from outside, at any hour. A gas fitting job needs a licensed gasfitter, so don’t try a repair yourself.
