Common questions
Pricing, Quotes and Offers
What does '$65 off your first service' cover?
You get $65 knocked straight off whatever we quote for that very first booking. No fine print, no minimum spend needed. Book by phone or online and we take it off the price on the spot.
Is the quote really free?
Yes. We'll come out, size up the job, and settle on a fixed price with you on the spot. If you decide not to go ahead, you owe us nothing. There's no call-out fee either, so getting us out costs you nothing.
What does 'from $89' actually include?
From $89 you're covered for a typical blocked drain, the sort that comes up most often around this part of Sydney. We settle the fixed price on site before any tool comes out, nothing left to guess at.
Do prices change once you start?
No. The price we quote is the price you pay, full stop. We don't discover extra costs halfway through a job, and we don't charge by the hour either.
Common questions
Licensed, Insured and Done Properly
What is your lifetime labour warranty?
If our workmanship fails on a job we've already completed, we come back and fix it at no cost to you. That's the lifetime labour warranty in plain terms, and it applies to every job on our books.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, fully. We hold NSW Plumbing Licence #465156C, and each person on our team, plumber or gas fitter, is licensed and insured. They won't touch a pipe in your Epping home until that's sorted.
Do wipes really block drains?
Wipes cause more blockages than anything else we clear. Labelled 'flushable' or not, they stay mostly intact instead of dissolving. A small clump snagged on a joint is enough to choke the pipe.
Can I clear a blocked drain myself?
Simple bathroom and kitchen clogs often clear with nothing more than a plunger or some hot water. Where it's a slow sewer line underneath though, that's licensed drainage work under NSW law, not a DIY job.
Common questions
Booking, Timing and Same-Day Service
How do I book?
Call (02) 9199 2575 to run through what's going on, or fill in the callback form and we'll ring you back shortly. Either way, you're talking to a licensed local plumber, not an automated menu.
Are you really available 24/7?
Yes. A real person answers the phone day or night, weekends included. We don't run an answering service, and nobody gets put through to voicemail at 2am when a drain's backed up.
What counts as a drain emergency?
Sewage rising back up inside the house, a stormwater gully spilling over the yard, or several fixtures giving up together. Treat any of those as urgent and get us on the phone straight away.
How fast can you get here?
Most jobs get a same-day visit. Call in the morning and we're often there within a couple of hours. Call later on and we'll still squeeze you in that day if we possibly can.
Common questions
The Epping Questions
How local are you, really?
We're through Epping often enough to know the streets, not just the postcode. Our regular run covers everything from the streets near the aquatic centre off Stanley Road out to the quieter pockets further from the station.
Do tree roots cause many blockages around Epping?
Constantly. Epping's got plenty of established trees on its older streets, some backing onto reserves like Forest Park. Roots chase moisture into any pipe joint that's had decades to loosen and crack.
Why do Epping's older homes get blocked drains?
A lot of Epping was built up through the post-war years on what used to be orchard land, and those homes often still run on original clay or earthenware pipework. It cracks with age and lets roots straight in.
Do you handle strata and units?
Yes. Epping's had a real wave of apartment blocks go up around the station in recent years. We work on strata plumbing just as often as we do standalone houses on the older blocks.
