Common questions
How Fast We Get to You
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
Water turning up somewhere it shouldn't, the hot water cutting out completely, or catching a whiff of gas. A tap with a steady drip or a drain running a little sluggish usually doesn't make the cut. Unsure which one you've got? Ring us and describe it, and we'll steer you the right way.
Do you work weekends and public holidays?
Every single day, including Christmas and long weekends. Nothing about the process changes for a Sunday callout, from the plumber who turns up to the way the job's priced.
Are you really available 24/7?
Genuinely, yes. Someone picks up whatever the hour, and if it's a job that can't hold until daylight, we'll have a plumber moving straight away.
How fast can you get here?
We can't guarantee an arrival time, so we won't promise one we might miss, but when same day is realistic that's exactly what we aim for. Ring (02) 9139 9972 and you'll get a straight read on timing while you're still on the phone.
Common questions
Pricing, Quotes and the $65 Off
What does the $65 off your first service cover?
A discount of $65 applies to whatever your first job with us turns out to be, no exclusions. Combine it with the $0 call-out and there's genuinely no fine print hiding underneath.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
Turning up is free, full stop, whether the job proceeds or not. What you're charged for is the work itself, at the price you approve first.
What payment options do you offer?
Card and electronic payment on completion is the norm. Nobody's asked to pay a cent until the job's done and they're happy with it.
Why isn't the lowest price your main focus?
A rock-bottom quote usually means something's been skipped, whether that's proper parts or a genuine warranty. We'd rather price the job fairly, back the work for life, and let the value speak for itself.
Common questions
Local Answers for Doonside
How local are you, really?
Doonside sits at the middle of our week, not the outer edge of a territory we cover on paper. We're past Bert Saunders Reserve and the local shops often enough that the streets are familiar, not something we had to look up.
Do you handle strata and units in Doonside?
Most properties here are standalone houses, with a growing share of semis and townhouses, so that's where the bulk of our jobs come from. If a job turns out to sit on common strata property, we sort out whose responsibility it is before any work goes ahead.
Do you cover the suburbs next to Doonside?
We do. Blacktown, Woodcroft, Rooty Hill, Lalor Park and Marayong are all worked into the same weekly round as Doonside. Each has its own page if you want specifics for your street.
Why do Doonside's older homes get plumbing emergencies?
A lot of this suburb was built up around the station in the postwar decades, and that original pipework is still doing the job today. Add cold snaps that push heating and hot water demand hard, and an ageing system's more likely to give out.
Common questions
Who's Responsible for What
What is your lifetime labour warranty?
Whatever we install or repair stays under warranty indefinitely, there's no expiry date printed anywhere on it. If it lets you down later, putting it right doesn't cost you a second time.
Are your plumbers qualified to work on gas?
Every gas job goes to one of our licensed gas fitters, never a plumber working outside their ticket. Smelling gas means leave the property first and ring us once you're safely away from it.
Can I fix a plumbing emergency myself?
Not the actual repair, that legally needs a licensed tradesperson in NSW, gas work especially. What you can safely do is isolate the water at the meter and keep clear of the mess until help arrives.
Can you check my licence number?
NSW Licence #465156C is ours, and verify.licence.nsw.gov.au will confirm it in seconds if you'd rather check before we're on your doorstep.
