A licensed plumber for Hawkesbury Heights homes, day or night
If a tap won’t stop running or a drain backs up, our licensed plumber Hawkesbury Heights team answers the phone at any hour. Call day or night, weekends included.
We price each job before we start, and the price holds once you approve it. Evening and weekend rates differ from daytime rates, so we quote the price first.
What goes wrong with plumbing in Hawkesbury Heights homes?
At the 2021 Census, 156 of the 159 occupied homes in Hawkesbury Heights were separate houses. These are four common jobs in a detached home.
Slow and blocked drains
Grease, hair and soap build up in kitchen, laundry and bathroom lines. A camera inspection shows whether a clean will hold. See our blocked drain clearing.
Dripping taps and mixers
A tap that drips wastes water and wears out its seat. The fix is a new washer, a new cartridge or a new tap, depending on the fault.
Hot water that runs cold
A unit that fails mid-shower has lost a part or reached the end of its life. We handle hot water system repairs and tell you when replacement makes more sense.
Leaks you can’t see
A damp patch in the lawn or a meter that keeps turning points to a hidden leak. We use non-invasive leak tracing before anything is opened up.
Who owns which pipes in Hawkesbury Heights?
Sydney Water says the property owner is normally responsible for maintaining private drinking water and wastewater pipes up to where they connect to its services. Owners own all drinking water pipes and fittings from that connection to the buildings or taps on their property.
A fault on your side of the connection is yours to fix, and you need a licensed plumber. Sydney Water sets out the split in its guide to system connections.
Emergency plumber Hawkesbury Heights: any hour, day or night
A burst pipe or a sewage overflow won’t wait for morning. Ring 1300 164 206 at any hour and a licensed plumber answers. Evening and weekend rates differ, and you get the price before we start.
Know where your main tap sits before you need it. Make sure everyone in the house can find it.
- Shut the water off at the main tap.
- Switch the power off at the board if water is near outlets or light fittings.
- Run the lowest tap until the pipes stop dripping.
- Lift rugs and valuables off the floor, then call us.
Hot water and gas for Hawkesbury Heights homes
A hot water unit can sit quietly for years, then fail on the coldest morning. A repair makes sense when one part has gone and the tank is sound, and a plumber Hawkesbury Heights owners hire can tell which it is. A leaking tank is past repair.
Gas work is different. On mains gas or bottled LPG alike, only a licensed gasfitter can move a heater, swap a cooktop or fit a new bayonet. Our licensed gas fitting covers new connections, appliance swaps and pressure testing.
If you smell gas, step outside and leave every switch and appliance alone. Then ring us from the footpath, at any hour.

Do I need approval for plumbing work in Hawkesbury Heights?
A Notice of Work is a form that outlines plumbing and drainage work before it starts. NSW Government says plumbers must submit one to Building Commission NSW, through its MyInspections Gateway, for work that needs an inspection in the Blue Mountains. Emergency work and minor jobs, like replacing tap ware or an existing hot water system, don’t need one.
A Certificate of Compliance confirms that plumbing and drainage work complies with the plumbing regulations and the Plumbing Code of Australia. The plumber completes it at the end of the work and gives a copy to the person who arranged the job.
Some properties sit on bush fire prone land, which the local council identifies. The NSW Rural Fire Service says the status should be noted on the Section 10.7 planning certificate you get from council. For building on bush fire prone land, it says any above-ground water and gas pipes need to be metal.
