HERE ARE SOME COMMON ISSUES THE PIED PLUMBER CAN HELP YOU WITH:

Toilet trouble

Extremely high-water bills can sometimes be traced back to a leaking cistern! You may also see leaking or dripping near the external area of the toilet bowl or pan. Should this become a concern, it’s good to know each toilet can be isolated from the bottom valve. We can remove the outdated unit and replace it with the toilet you’ve always imagined—it’s honestly surprising how dramatically a new toilet can elevate the look of a room. Whether or not it qualifies as a crisis, we consistently handle plumbing jobs near Neutral Bay and look forward to having a conversation with you!

Shower Complications

Every now and then, you could experience unseen shower leaks emerging from tiny crevices around your taps or showerhead fittings. Our specialists carry thermal imaging tools and can pressure test your shower outlet accurately. Investigating the plumbing should always be the first course of action before spending hundreds resealing components, only to find the problem unresolved. We take care of replacing worn-out, rusted shower heads with state-of-the-art, multi-function heads and set up adjustable shower-on-a-rail dispensers designed especially for couples with notable height disparities.

Constant Gas Smell

We are a team of fully licenced and insured gas fitting specialists servicing Neutral Bay. If you catch a sudden gas odour around your appliances—such as the stove, BBQ, heater, gas meter—or even notice a faint sulphur or egg-like scent under your house or floor, these may all suggest there’s a gas leak present. Dangerous gas leaks can threaten the safety of you and your family, so you should contact us to plan what to do next. We use the latest equipment for testing and tracing to keep your heating and kitchen working properly.

Leaking and Burst Pipes

Water pipes can burst without warning in tricky areas—next to wiring, under concrete, or deep in the garden—causing expensive damage and higher water costs. Fortunately, our expert 24-hour plumbers near Neutral Bay are always ready to help. We act quickly to fix flood damage, repair or replace burst pipes, and restore your plumbing. From under-sink hose splits to ruptured outdoor copper lines and hidden underground breaks, The Pied Plumber has seen it all. We’ll have you back up and running with minimal fuss.

No Hot Water Neutral Bay Area

Living without hot water in Neutral Bay is inconvenient and surprisingly common—get the issue solved quickly by calling our experienced plumbers. Even minor hot water leaks, if ignored, can escalate into full unit failures. A common underlying cause is a faulty tempering valve that causes low or fluctuating water temperatures in crucial fixtures like showers and sinks. We specialise in servicing, repairing, and installing dependable hot water systems. All our components are exclusively sourced from your local Reece plumbing outlet, ensuring they withstand long-term household demands. No heat? If your boiler is not heating as it should, contacting the specialists to repair it swiftly is the right choice. We do it all with absolutely no hassle.

Leaking Taps in Neutral Bay

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 Neutral Bay 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.

Blockages With In Household Drains around Neutral Bay

For the majority of Sydneysiders, this happens all the time. Whether it’s kids forgetting toys or that one close relative coming around Christmas, it tends to leave you stuck in a pickle. 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 face reality: drains aren’t typically pleasant to see, and unblocking the ensuite or main bathroom toilet on your own without professional guidance could cause further harm eventually.

 

Blocked External Drains in Neutral Bay

Every so often, and more frequently for some than others, you might detect gurgling sounds near your drains, typically inside bathrooms and sometimes at external sites of sewer overflow. It’s critical to respond to these issues as soon as they arise, given that these common plumbing problems can be fixed promptly! Tree roots, struggling for survival in Sydney’s frequent drought conditions, are a common cause of outside sewer service blockages. These mainline clogs occur often in areas like Neutral Bay, Frenches Forest, and Mona Vale, making them widespread issues around Neutral Bay and neighbouring regions. Branch line blockages, boundary traps, and shaft issues are our core expertise. The Pied Plumber uses advanced CCTV inspection and high-pressure jet blasting technology to precisely locate and clear blockages, restoring your drainage wastewater system to full working order. This is also the case with stormwater drains that cannot cope with heavy rain. If downpipes back up around pits and strip drains overflow, we’ll take the time needed to get you back in action fast, as well as properly evaluate the problem to prevent it from recurring.

Neutral Bay Drain Repairs:

Burst or leaking pipes and faulty or clogged sewers can cause a major disruption to your household, potentially leading to numerous issues. If your toilet, bathroom, bath, or sinks are flooded, blocked, or damaged, we see all drain repairs as emergencies. Our plumbers in Neutral Bay will come quickly to unblock, Jet-Blast, and clear your overflowing drains!

You can do the first thing if you have a blocked drain exacerbated by tree roots or paper to contact one of our specialists. Our after-hours emergency plumbing service will assist you in understanding the most common causes of drain blockages. When our team arrives, we will find and repair the blockage and ensure that your drains are installed to standard to avoid any future blockages.

Emergency Neutral Bay Plumber:

We know plumbing issues don’t only occur during the day, and more often than not, they happen after work, when you go for a shower or use the toilet. Our plumbing team is available to you and your family 24 hours a day, seven days a week. So, the next time you have a plumbing problem in Sydney, our direct response emergency team can assist you, even if it is nighttime or very early mornings.

What To do In an After-Hours Neutral Bay Plumbing Emergency:

Keep calm; support is merely a call away. Emergencies tend to be obvious, but your safety might not always be clear. Take a few seconds to identify flood-risk locations, check for any electrical risks, and if there is water around your storage hot water service, immediately switch OFF the hot water electrical circuit! The electrical meter box should have the hot water circuit labeled as “HWS,” “HOT WATER,” or “HW” for clarity.

So, you’ve isolated your supplies and are about to call The Pied Plumber:

Although we have wet vacs and cleaning supplies, we believe this to be part of our emergency response. Having old towels on hand during an emergency is important and will certainly reduce the severity of damage inside your house. If there is a plumbing issue underneath a hand basin, toilet, or sink, chipboard cupboards and shelves can swell, causing irreversible damage. Whatever you do, never use hot air fans to relieve the situation, as this will escalate the damage before we arrive. Allow us to save your plumbing!

What do I do if a pipe bursts in my toilet, kitchen, laundry or ensuite?

  • Usually, simply asking for a pause won’t remedy burst pipes. Prior to our team arriving, please try to locate your water meter and, if it’s feasible, identify whether the leak stems from the cold or hot water system to know which supply to isolate. If left unchecked, the water meter will continue draining the entire water supply.
  • When phoning from a household in Neutral Bay, your water meter is likely located out front, facing the street and in line with your garden tap. To shut the water off, turn the meter tap clockwise. Then, open up your outdoor hose tap to check if the water supply is indeed ‘OFF’. Doing this also helps clear any remaining water in the home’s supply line by letting it discharge safely outside.
  • In the event of an emergency in a unit block in Neutral Bay, the unit isolation valve is typically located beneath the kitchen sink or within the laundry tub cabinet. However, since there is no universally established standard for determining the placement of common property isolation valves, The Pied Plumber strongly recommends that all unit owners remain aware of where this essential component is positioned.

What Our Customers Say About Us

Frequently Asked Questions

A shower is just one example. Technically, any hot water fixture can suffer from this. You might get hot water instantly on one end of the home, but at the other end, it seems broken.

The issue typically lies in the pipe size and how far the hot water travels. The greater the distance from the heater to the fixture, the more time and heat loss occurs. Even your local climate can influence how quickly water loses its heat.

When hot water systems suffer from poor pressure, it really amplifies the problem. The good news? We usually find a way to fix or greatly improve the issue.

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. 

At The Pied Plumber, we understand that knowing how to lower your water bills in Sydney will go a long way to helping families manage their budgets within challenging climates. Never fear! There are ways that you can reduce your water bills, whether this be installing water-efficient appliances and fixtures or by ensuring that leaks are isolated and fixed promptly. These actions will not only help you save money on your water bills but assist in conserving water, we can all help save our dams during drought seasons. Five strategies for saving money on your water bills in Sydney

  1. Check your toilet for leaks: Add a few drops of food colouring into the cistern and wait for 30 minutes. If the cistern is leaking into the pan, you will see the coloured water in the bowl.
  2. Install a dual flush cistern: This can save you up to 5 litres of water every time you flush the toilet, which can add up to thousands of litres per year.
  3. Check fixture flow rates: Our family plumbers will check the flow rates of your shower heads, bath, vanity, kitchen and laundry taps and install water restrictors, which reduce the flow rates to save you money.
  4. Repair leaking taps: One or more dripping taps can add up to a lot of wasted water and higher than expected bills. So whether these are indoors or outdoors, the prompt repair of leaking taps is essential to conserving water and saving money on your water bills in Sydney.
  5. Hidden underground leaks: Often, the first time you realise that you have an insidious underground water leak is when you receive an abnormally high water bill. However, leaks from underground mains water pipes can be challenging to locate, which is why our electronic line locating equipment comes in handy. Our family plumbers will quickly and efficiently find the source of your underground water leak and repair the pipes, helping you to save money on your water bills in Sydney.

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:

  • Your meter tap washer is broken and thus disallowing optimal flow through the meter assembly.
  • You have a pressure limiting or reduction device fitted to the meter outlet, which may require replacement.
  • Sydney Water has reduced the street pressure supply to prolong outdated and weakened mains pipes from breaking.
  • Your fixture tap outlets have become clogged with debris—this is a common problem, particularly after a split in a street main, causing fixture tap outlets to become blocked. This is a common problem, particularly after a break in a road main.
  • Your water supply lines are undersized for the number of fixtures you now have around your property. Particularly when homes have been renovated and fixture numbers have doubled without updating water supplies to accommodate the increased flow rates necessary to operate the dwelling
  • You have a below ground leak on the property; depending on the severity of the leak, this may impact your working pressures to fixtures.
  • You perhaps have a hidden pressure-reducing device fitted somewhere on the property. A full house inspection is often necessary to source these.

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.

  • Water hammering or odd audible noise emanating from plumbing fixtures can commonly cause burst pipes and property damage if left unattended. It may seem insignificant but certainly, a worthy idea to check for peace of mind.
  • Water damage outside shower screens, bubbling paint along walls and adjacent rooms, dampness or discolouration around ceilings along with off stagnant odour around plumbing areas. Avoid an insurance claim, have this checked.
  • Higher than usual water bills is a relatively standard method of establishing whether you have an issue. If you’re unable to identify the cause of the billing discrepancy – It might be worth having your house inspected for leaks.
  • Gurgling and varying water levels in toilets, floor wastes, and outdoor drains are a giveaway sign that you have a sewer blockage. This is the time to have your plumbing assessed to prevent overflowing drains.
  • Hot water no longer producing a reasonable tempered supply; A plethora of causes may result in this scenario – All of which should be appropriately assessed by a licenced plumber.
  • The sudden drop in your outside garden grassed area? This might sound like a sinkhole or something out worldly, although it is usually a result of drainage breaks underground.

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. If urgent, we offer after-hours, same day service if necessary. The Pied plumber is always happy to help!
