Licensed plumbers for Randwick flats, terraces and shops, day or night
When a toilet overflows in your Randwick flat, you need a licensed plumber who can work out whose pipe it is. Our plumber Randwick team takes calls at any hour.
We price every job before work starts, and the price is fixed once you approve it. Evening and weekend rates differ, so we quote your visit first. A backflow prevention device is a valve that stops water running backwards into the mains, and we look after those too.
Which plumbing faults do Randwick homes and shops run into?
The 2021 Census counted 8,047 flats or apartments among Randwick’s 11,786 occupied homes. In a block, a fault can sit in your own wall, in a shared pipe or out in the street, and the fix depends on which.
Blocked drains
Sydney Water lists tree roots, grease and unflushable items among the causes. Drain clearing and camera checks show whether a clean will hold.
Dripping taps and running toilets
A tap that drips or a toilet that runs on wastes water and shows up on the bill. We repair both, and we’ll tell you when a part is past saving.
Hot water that runs out early
We repair gas and electric units. If replacement makes more sense, we say so and quote it before we start.
Leaks you can’t see
A bill that climbs when your use hasn’t changed points to a leak. We use non-invasive leak tracing before anything is opened up.
Signs of a blocked drain
- Sinks, the bath or the toilet empty slowly
- A toilet or floor drain that gurgles
- Wastewater overflowing near an outside tap
- A toilet that won’t flush properly
Who looks after which pipes in Randwick?
Sydney Water owns the water main and the meter at your property. The owner is normally responsible for private pipes up to where they connect to Sydney Water’s services, as Sydney Water explains.
Sydney Water says a blockage is probably in its pipes if the overflow is visible beyond your property boundary, your neighbours have the same problem, or there’s a continuous overflow while you’re not using water. In those cases, call its faults line on 13 20 90, which it lists as 24/7. A blockage in your private pipes needs a licensed plumber.
Emergency plumber Randwick: call at any hour
A burst pipe or an overflowing toilet won’t wait for business hours. Call 1300 164 206 at any hour and a licensed plumber answers, seven days a week. Evening and weekend rates differ, and we quote the price before work starts. Meet our emergency plumbing service.
While you wait:
- Turn the water off at the meter or the isolation tap, if you can reach it.
- Switch off the power at the switchboard if water is near power points or lights.
- Keep clear of any wastewater overflow, and report it to Sydney Water on 13 20 90.
- Call us at any hour, and keep the area clear until we arrive.
Gas and hot water work for Randwick homes and units
In NSW, only licensed gasfitters can do repairs or renovations that involve gas, and that includes moving or replacing a gas appliance. NSW Fair Trading says to check the licence online or on 13 27 00.
Our NSW contractor licence covers gasfitting. Our gas appliance fitting covers new connections and appliance swaps. If you ever smell gas, leave the building, keep away from light switches and call us from outside.
If it’s unclear who repairs what in your strata building, NSW Government says to check your strata plan and by-laws.

In a strata scheme, NSW Government says the owners corporation must repair and maintain common property, and owners repair anything within their own property. A tenant should contact their real estate agent or landlord.
Plumber Randwick: whose job is the leak?
| Where the water shows | Who looks after it | What to do first |
|---|---|---|
| A leak in your own wall or fixture | You, as the owner | Check your strata plan, then call a licensed plumber. |
| A pipe in a boundary wall or under the floor | The owners corporation | Tell your strata manager before any repair. |
| An overflow beyond your boundary, or next door too | Sydney Water, probably | Call its faults line on 13 20 90. |
| A drain that blocks only at your property | Probably the owner of the private pipe | Call us to clear or inspect the line. |
Randwick City Council’s statement for the Randwick Junction conservation area calls it the only one in the city focused on a commercial centre. It’s generally bounded by Belmore Road, Alison Road and Avoca Street.
If you run a food business, Sydney Water says its waste carries a much higher concentration of fat, oil and grease than an average home’s. Its guidance for food businesses says never to put food scraps or waste oil into a sink or grease trap.
We also look after Kensington, Kingsford, Coogee and Moore Park. See the other suburbs our Eastern Suburbs plumbers cover.
