In some cases, shower leaks may be tucked away in discreet areas near your tapware or showerhead, making them hard to detect. We come equipped with cutting-edge thermal imaging devices and can easily run a pressure test on the outlet.

Our team replaces old, rusted shower heads with brand-new, premium multi-function versions and fits adjustable shower-on-a-rail dispensers, perfect for couples with significant height variations.
We’re proud to be fully licenced and insured gas fitting professionals serving Gladesville.

Running out of hot water in your Gladesville residence is a typical plumbing issue—contact our licensed professionals to get it fixed without delay.

A dripping tap will drive the whole family up the wall! From problematic kitchen or hand basin mixer cartridges to the bathroom shower that won’t stop dripping through the night, it’s all part of this well-known plumbing issue. Across Gladesville suburbs, worn-out washers are a common culprit behind unexpectedly high quarterly water bills. That’s why The Pied Plumber takes pride in fixing every leak, whether your tap uses a washer or a quarter-turn mechanism, and no matter how old or new it is—we sort it all out.
Many people living in Gladesville encounter this common issue. Whether it stems from kids leaving toys lying around or a close relative showing up over Christmas, it often leaves you in a tough spot. Inside the home, blockages typically arise from excessive grease buildup in kitchen sinks, along with long-haired family members contributing to sluggish shower drains that can sometimes overflow. Over the last twenty years, The Pied Plumber has gained extensive experience managing these problems. Whether it’s clearing blocked floor wastes near baths, swiftly addressing kitchen drain issues, repairing overflowing laundry tubs, or even extracting dried cement from shower drains left by your last tradesman, we do it all. Our approach ensures your drainage is repaired correctly, and we strive to provide you with knowledge to prevent future blockages. Let’s be honest: drains rarely appear appealing, and trying to unblock the ensuite or main bathroom toilet without professional support can ultimately lead to greater issues.
Now and then, and more frequently for certain people, gurgling can be noticed near drains, typically in bathrooms and even around outside sewer overflow spots. It’s critical to handle these issues promptly once they appear, because these common plumbing problems can be solved swiftly! Tree roots searching for water are often the main culprit behind outside sewer service blockages, especially during Sydney’s regular droughts. Whether you reside in Gladesville, Frenches Forest, or Mona Vale, these blockages in the main sewer lines are common throughout Gladesville and surrounding areas. We specialise in clearing branch line blockages, boundary traps, and shaft issues. At The Pied Plumber, we utilise cutting-edge high-pressure jet blasting combined with CCTV drain inspection technology to accurately identify and clear blockages, ensuring your wastewater drainage system runs smoothly again. The same goes for stormwater drains that cannot cope with heavy rain events. If downpipes are backing up near pits or strip drains start to overflow, we’ll act fast to get you back in action and carefully diagnose the cause to avoid it happening again.

Stay calm; assistance is just a phone call away. Emergencies are often easy to spot; however, your personal safety might not be so clear. Take a moment to identify flood-prone zones, check for any electrical hazards, and if you notice water near your storage hot water service, switch OFF the electrical circuit for your hot water system immediately! Your hot water circuit should be clearly labeled as “HWS,” “HOT WATER,” or “HW” inside the electrical meter box.
Despite having wet vacs and cleaning products at our disposal, we see these as part of our emergency intervention. It’s important to have old towels ready during an emergency, as they will undoubtedly lessen the damage inside your home. Plumbing issues occurring below a hand basin, toilet, or sink can cause chipboard cupboards and shelves to expand and swell, resulting in irreversible harm. Never attempt to use hot air fans to manage the situation, as this will increase the damage prior to our arrival. Allow us to rescue your plumbing efficiently!
Your shower is just one example—this can happen with any hot water fixture. You might get quick hot water at one tap, but faraway fixtures lag or feel broken.
The main culprit is pipe length and size. The farther the fixture is from the hot water system, the more time and heat is lost. Even outdoor temperature plays a role in how heat escapes from your pipes.
If your hot water system also lacks proper pressure, the issue becomes even worse. Fortunately, we can often improve or even completely solve the problem.
Probably not. Vitreous ceramic cisterns usually have suitable genuine and generic parts to repair them. If it’s a plastic cistern and the fix requires more than changing inlet and outlet rubbers, replacing the unit might be cheaper. We always evaluate the age, brand, and design of your cistern and suite so you’re fully informed when making a decision.

Lower your water bills with a water leak claim form When you have a concealed water leak underground and have promptly acted to fix the problem, you can claim credit for the additional water charges from the council. As licensed family plumbers in Sydney, we will issue you with a water leak claim form, which you submit to Sydney Water once we have repaired your water leak helping you lower your water bill in Sydney following a hidden leak. We’re here if you need us: 1300 13 80 80
Short answer; check your cleaner packaging before use. Anything bleach-based, when used inside your cistern, can chemically deteriorate internal rubbers and valve parts. If your cistern cleaner is bright blue in particular – this voids most manufacture warranties of cistern components. A quick tip from the boss: If you’re one to use cleaners inside the toilet rim, look into dissolvable stick-on products rather than hanging manifolds. You’d be surprised how many call-outs Plumbers obtain from foreign objects caught down the dunny when flushed. Some can involve fairly significant works to retrieve. Just remember – bleach for the pan, not your cistern! We’re always happy for a chat if you’re experiencing any issues. 1300 13 80 80
Unsatisfactorily low water pressure may be reasonably simple to diagnose in certain situations. Below is a check-list of possible triggers, from the more popular to the uncommon supplementary causes of low water pressure:
The key concern here is: Don’t wait for your next water bill to arrive. Check that your water meter isn’t ticking over constantly, and if concerned – we’re a call away.
Fortunately, you’re not alone—this prevalent problem in Sydney households is, most of the time, due to either hot water cylinder rust or cast-iron pipe supply issues. (if in older properties) Open your taps independently to check whether the discolouration occurrence is on both hot and cold sides. If your issue is predominantly from the hot side – your hot water heater is asking for a check-up. Are you finding this on both sides? It’s a likely supply issue. Discolouration can range from a slight cloudy white tinge to black, brown and orange water supplies. To check, simply fill a clear cup sample and focus notably on the bottom for sedimentation. On occasion, even a Sydney Water street mains break can affect surrounding property supply, so in the meantime, continue using your plumbing and, after a day or two – if the problem persists, have this looked over. Otherwise, give us a call! We would be more than happy to help. 1300 13 80 80
The maximum and most ideal house pressure range is 500KPA. This is achieved throughout most of Sydney; however, some areas have been known to exceed this immensely. Furthermore, in these particular locations, we’ll often find problem issues that rarely occur elsewhere. High-pressure notably reduces lifespan and increases wear in pipes and valves. Water hammering concerns are prevalent in these scenarios, and generally, water use in high-pressure homes is far greater than their optimal pressure counterparts. Unfortunately, Sydney Water does not guarantee a maximum supply pressure, leaving the sole discretion of the consumer to protect their property. As plumbers, we can easily perform a pressure test and, if necessary, install a water meter pressure-limiting device to safeguard your home.

Broken sewer lines are the usual culprit as there’s a regular supply of waste passing through these pipes, which can draw in the surrounding ground as waste matter passes. These issues should adequately be assessed even if your grass has never been greener! Since our establishment in 1995 – You’ve had it, we’ve seen it.
For the most part – It’s not a secret language. This refers to sets of rules outlined by countries, states and regions worldwide with the objective of providing safe method, practice and installation of plumbing materials and systems fit for public health and safety. We operate within the guidelines of the Australian Sydney region, which is primarily governed by the AS/NZ 3500 standard and NSW code of practice. So if you overhear a plumber saying, “That’s not to standard!” – It’s probably good news that he or she knows the rules which must be carried out.
Take it from the owner of the Pied Plumber—a pet hate of agreeing to a price and then the hidden surprise afterwards. Since 1995 – We have never surcharged a VISA or MASTERCARD expense back to our customers. We will, however, continue to charge 1.5% on AMEX.
Yes—pipe size truly does matter. The original pipe sizing in your home may have only met minimum standards. With extensions or additions, your required flow rates may have doubled, resulting in pressure drops in your water or gas supply. Often, these issues stem from poor plumbing design. Whether it’s adjusting a gas regulator or assessing pipes post-meter, The Pied Plumber will inspect and offer practical solutions tailored to your needs.
NO – and we’re proud of that! The Pied Plumber is a family-run business. Frankly, that’s the way we love to keep it!

This flimsy piece of paper is documentation usually found with your house sale contracts, which can significantly assist in locating the position of below-ground sewer pipework. In essence, it’s a vague outline of your outdoor sewer service and, in most cases outdated, however, it does have relevance during scenarios where a Plumber is unable to locate essential final sewer points, as oftentimes these are buried underground in older dwellings. It also gives further knowledge on the whereabouts of mains infrastructure. It is always a good idea to have this document on hand ready before a plumber arrives. If unobtainable, visit the Sydney Water website and purchase a downloadable copy.
Our regular business hours are Monday through to Friday, 7am – 3pm. This excludes Public holidays and long weekends. However, we understand that not all plumbing issues arise between these times.
