Licensed plumbers for Epping units and houses, any hour
A leak through a bathroom ceiling or a toilet that won’t stop running needs a licensed plumber in Epping. Our plumber Epping team takes calls at any hour, for houses and for apartments.
We give you the price before we start, and it holds once you approve it. Evening and weekend rates differ from daytime rates, and we quote the price first.
Which plumbing faults are common in Epping homes?
Nearly half of Epping’s occupied homes are flats or apartments, and another 42.6% are separate houses. Both kinds throw up the same four jobs, though who pays for the repair can differ.
Drains that back up
Tree roots can work into pipe joints. A camera inspection shows whether unblocking the drain will hold or the pipe needs repair.
Water where it shouldn’t be
A stained ceiling, a musty cupboard or a bill that climbs for no reason points to a hidden leak. We use leak detection on concealed pipes before anything is opened up.
Hot water that fades
A unit that turns cold mid-shower needs a repair or a replacement. We handle hot water unit repairs and tell you when replacing makes more sense.
Taps that drip
A dripping tap or a cistern that keeps refilling wastes water. A worn washer or a stuck float valve is the usual cause.
If Sydney Water supplies your home, you can test for a leak with your meter. Turn off all taps and appliances that use water, note the numbers on the dial, then use no water for at least an hour. Sydney Water says that if the last numbers have changed, you have a leak.
Whose pipe is it in Epping?
Sydney Water says the property owner is normally responsible for private drinking water and wastewater pipes up to where they connect to its services. If your home is connected to Sydney Water, a fault on your side of that point is normally yours to fix. Its pipe ownership guide shows where the line falls.
Emergency plumber Epping: day, night and weekends
A burst pipe at 2 am can’t wait, and neither can a sewage overflow on a Sunday. Call 1300 164 206 and a licensed plumber answers. Evening and weekend rates differ, and you get the price before we start.
Find your isolation valve before you need it. If Sydney Water supplies your home, it owns the water meter, and you need to keep it free from damage.
- Turn the water off at the valve or the meter.
- Switch off the power at the switchboard if water has reached power points or lights.
- Open the lowest tap to drain the pipes and ease the pressure.
- Move valuables off the floor, then call us.
Gas fitting and hot water for Epping households
Moving a gas heater, fitting a new cooktop or adding a bayonet point is licensed gasfitting work. Our licensed gas fitting service covers new connections, appliance swaps and pressure testing.
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.
If you smell gas, get everyone out and don’t touch switches or appliances. Call us from outside, at any hour.

Does plumbing work in Epping need a notice or certificate?
Some jobs do. A plumber submits a Notice of Work before starting any job that needs an inspection. NSW lists emergency work and minor works, like replacing tap ware or an existing hot water system, as cases where one isn’t needed.
A Certificate of Compliance is the record that the finished work complies with the plumbing regulations and the Plumbing Code of Australia. Ask for your copy and keep it with the property papers.
Plumbing in Epping’s apartments and houses
The NSW Electoral Commission lists Epping among the localities that the City of Parramatta and Hornsby Shire Council each include, partially or wholly. Check which council covers your street before you ask council for anything.
Epping homes in the 2021 Census
Source: ABS Census QuickStats. The ABS makes small random changes to figures for privacy.
In 2021, 4,904 Epping homes were flats or apartments. A further 4,330 homes were rented. NSW Government strata guidance says tenants should ask their landlord for repairs.
Plumber Epping: who fixes a leak in a strata unit?
| Where the fault is | Usually looked after by | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Taps, toilets, baths and plumbing in internal walls | The owner of the lot | Book a licensed plumber. |
| Plumbing in boundary walls and under the floor | The owners corporation | Tell your strata manager or strata committee. |
| A rented unit | The landlord, once you tell them | Tell your landlord or agent. |
NSW says that in most cases the owners corporation repairs common property and owners repair anything within their own property. If you can’t find the answer, check your strata plan and by-laws.
If a house is connected to Sydney Water, the owner is normally responsible for the private pipes up to the connection point. A leak on that side is normally the owner’s to fix. Of Epping’s occupied homes, 2,784 were owned outright and 2,962 were owned with a mortgage.
We also look after Eastwood and Ryde. Our plumbers in the Northern Suburbs cover the rest of the region too.
