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

Toilet trouble

A leaking cistern, in some cases, can drive your water bills up significantly! Leaks or drips may become evident on the outside of your toilet bowl or pan. If this becomes a concern, toilets can be quickly isolated using the valve located underneath. We can even remove your current toilet and install the one you’ve always envisioned—you’d be amazed at how a fresh toilet installation can dramatically change the feel of your bathroom.

Crisis or no crisis, we’re constantly plumbing in the Lindfield area and look forward to speaking with you anytime!

Shower Complications

From time to time, subtle leaks may surface from hidden joints around your showerhead or tap fixtures. We have the tools to locate them, including thermal imaging devices and shower outlet pressure testing. It’s always a safer bet to examine the plumbing first rather than pay hundreds to reseal a shower or bath, only to discover the issue still lingers.

We even replace old rusted shower heads with new top-notch multi-function heads and install adjustable shower on-a rail dispensers for those odd couples with significant height differentials.

Constant Gas Smell

We’re proud to be fully licenced and insured gas fitting professionals serving Lindfield. Should you encounter an unexpected gas smell near your gas stove, heater, BBQ, gas meter, or even notice a subtle egg-like odour under the floorboards or house, it may indicate a gas leak that needs immediate attention.

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

Pipes bursting on your property can happen in all sorts of places—beside live electricals or under concrete—resulting in water damage and a rising water bill. That’s why we keep a 24/7 plumber near Lindfield ready to assist at a moment’s notice. Whether it’s an emergency pipe replacement or urgent flood repairs, we move swiftly. From broken under-sink hoses to ruptured garden pipes and meter-side breaks, The Pied Plumber has handled them all. We’ll act quickly to restore everything to normal before things escalate.

No Hot Water Lindfield Area

Dealing with no hot water in your home in Lindfield? You’re not alone—it’s a regular plumbing problem, and our team is ready to resolve it fast for your comfort. Small hot water leaks are usually fixable, but ignoring them may lead to system-wide failure. Sometimes, the real issue is a malfunctioning tempering device that compromises water temperature at crucial fixtures like your shower or kitchen sink. We can service, repair, or install reliable new hot water systems. All materials used come directly from your nearest Reece plumbing supplier for lasting reliability.

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 Lindfield

Dripping faucets will drive you and your family insane! Everything from leaking kitchen or hand basin mixer tap cartridges to “that” bathroom shower that keeps the family awake at night is covered under this popular plumbing issue. In all Lindfield suburbs, worn and broken washers may result in increased quarterly water bills, which is why The Pied Plumber takes the time to repair and/or fix your leaky pipes, whether new or old, washer or quarter-turn – we do it all.

Blockages With In Household Drains around Lindfield

A common occurrence for most Lindfieldsiders. Whether that be a result of children leaving their toys behind or ‘that’ close relative arriving over Christmas, leaving you in a pickle.

Internal house blockages are usually a result of excessive grease in kitchen sinks along with long-haired family members causing your shower drains to slow and, in some cases, overflow. The Pied Plumber has certainly gained their fair share of experience in these areas over the last two decades. Unblocking floor wastes adjacent to baths, swiftly attending to kitchen drainage strife, fixing overflowing laundry tubs and in some cases even removing dried cement from shower drains left by your last tradesman. We take the time to repair your drainage problem properly, and our goal is to leave you with prevention knowledge.

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.

Blocked External Drains in Lindfield

From time to time, and more frequently for certain individuals, you may hear gurgling sounds around your drains, usually within bathroom spaces and even near external sewer overflow spots. Addressing these concerns as soon as they come up is crucial since these common plumbing problems are generally resolved quickly!

Outside sewer service blockages are frequently caused by tree roots desperate to survive in Lindfield’s frequent droughts. Whether you’re in Lindfield, Frenches Forest or Mona Vale – these mainline choke matters are prevalent around Lindfield and all nearby regions. Branch line obstructions, boundary trap or shaft matters are our specialty. The Pied Plumber uses the latest in both high-pressure jet blasting and CCTV inspection drain clearing equipment for us to clean, detect, and locate precisely where the problem is so that your drainage wastewater system can be fully unblocked.

It applies equally to stormwater drains failing to cope with heavy rainfalls. If your downpipes back up around pits and your strip drains overflow, we’ll ensure you’re back in action in no time and properly investigate the cause to stop future issues.

Lindfield Drain Repairs:

Leaking or burst pipes, together with a malfunctioning or clogged sewer, can bring your home operations to a standstill and create an overwhelming number of problems. Should your toilet, bathroom, bath, or sinks be flooding, blocked, or damaged, we classify every drain repair as an emergency. Our plumbers in Lindfield will arrive swiftly to unblock, Jet-Blast, and clear your overflowing drain system!

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 Lindfield Plumber:

We appreciate that plumbing issues don’t limit themselves to daytime hours and tend to happen more often after work when you plan to shower or use the toilet. Our plumbing crew remains accessible to you and your family twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. So when plumbing emergencies hit in Lindfield, our dedicated emergency team is ready to assist anytime, including late nights and early mornings.

What To do In an After-Hours Lindfield Plumbing Emergency:

Do not panic; support is simply a call away. Emergencies tend to be visible, yet your safety is not always obvious. Stop briefly to recognize flood risk areas, check for electrical hazards, and if you see water near your storage hot water service, switch OFF the electrical hot water circuit without hesitation! The hot water circuit should be clearly identified as “HWS,” “HOT WATER,” or “HW” inside your electrical meter box.

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

While we do have wet vacuums and cleaning supplies available, we consider these tools as part of our emergency response protocol. Keeping old towels handy during a crisis is crucial and can significantly lessen the extent of damage inside your home. Plumbing problems beneath a hand basin, toilet, or sink can cause chipboard cupboards and shelves to swell, leading to permanent damage. Under no circumstances should you use hot air fans to try to fix the issue, as this will only worsen the situation before we get there. Let us handle your plumbing emergency and minimise damage!

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

  • As a rule, a courteous request to pause water flow won’t mend a burst pipe. Ahead of our attendance, attempt to find your water meter and, if feasible, work out if the issue is with the hot or cold water line—this will inform what to isolate. If not, all water reserves may be drained via the meter.
  • Calling from a home in Lindfield? In most cases, your water meter will be located out the front, facing the street, and lined up with the house’s hose tap. Ensure the meter tap is twisted clockwise. Then open an outdoor hose tap to verify that the water has been turned ‘OFF’. This also allows the remaining water in the household pipeline to drain off in a safe manner.
  • In the event of an emergency in a unit block in Lindfield, 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.

PLUMBING EMERGENCY?

What Our Customers Say About Us

PLUMBING TROUBLESHOOTING

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.

In most cases, no. Vitreous ceramic cisterns often have parts—both original and aftermarket—that can solve the issue. However, if it’s a plastic cistern needing more than rubber replacements on the inlet and outlet, replacing it could be more economical. We factor in the age, model, and style of your cistern and suite to help you make the most informed decision possible.

At The Pied Plumber, we understand that knowing how to lower your water bills in Lindfield 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 Lindfield

  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 Lindfield.
  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 Lindfield.

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 Lindfield, we will issue you with a water leak claim form, which you submit to Lindfield Water once we have repaired your water leak helping you lower your water bill in Lindfield 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.
  • Lindfield 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 Lindfield 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 Lindfield 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 Lindfield; 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, Lindfield 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 Lindfield 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.

Straight from the Pied Plumber’s owner—nothing annoys more than settling a price and getting a sneaky extra charge. 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.

We’re proud to advise – NO! The Pied Plumber is a family-owned business. Furthermore, that’s just the way we like 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 Lindfield 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!
