COVID-19 Important Update For Service Continuity - Read More Here
Dear Neighbour,
My name is William, and together with my wife Emily, we own and run Proximity Plumbing based within the Eastern Suburbs Community. We are the plumber Sydney locals trust year after year to provide simple plumbing solutions.
Think about the last time a tradesman was in your home. Did you feel that you were in the safe hands of a licensed and certified professional? Did you feel your needs were attended to and understood after the initial consultation? Was your home & wellbeing given the respect and courtesy it deserves?
Our mission is to create a reliable service that surpasses your expectations, providing the most dependable and efficient service without compromising quality. We ensure this through a proven track record of growth and success through word of mouth and quality of service within the Eastern Suburbs, we have over 422 + Google reviews to back this up.
Our duty as a plumbing leader in the industry is to change the stigma associated with plumbers and remind you that there are still credible plumbers who believe in charging fairly without the need to rip people off. You deserve a Sydney plumber who underpromises and over-delivers, someone who you can trust and someone you want as your plumber for life.

The best way to find a good plumber is through a trusted referral; often, it is best to engage a Sydney plumber with whom someone you know already has been involved with and has used. If you do not know a trusted local plumber, the next best thing you can do is check their credentials and do research online and check their reviews. Online reviews are a great way to gauge if a plumber’s previous clients were satisfied with the quality of their products and services, check out Proximity plumbing reviews.
Furthermore, evaluate only plumbers who can deliver proof of insurance and business registry. In some circumstances, you can also ask the plumber how long he/she has been in the plumbing industry. The more experience the plumber or company has - the better the service usually is.
Our top tip is to check their Google reviews! If a person you trust can recommend a local Sydney plumber they have used in the past, it's a clear indication if the plumber is reliable and worth engaging. Typically a paying customer pays close attention to costs, the quality of the service, and the value they receive and often will go out of their way to share their experience with a local plumber Sydney.
Not all plumbers were created equal! Unfortunately, like many things in life, you get what you pay for. Plumbers that often promote cheap prices in turn often provide a cheap or inferior service. The sales tactics is to lure you in first with low prices, then add a lot more onto the job once onsite. In reality, it leaves most customers wishing you stuck with your gut and went with a more reputable company that maybe was more expensive.
Proximity Plumbing has been around for over ten years. We are confident to be around for the next 50 + years as this is a family business that will continue to support the local community for as long as possible. We have made it our mission to be known as the number one plumbing company for the foreseeable future.
We all know a doggy tradie, and unfortunately, it ends up giving the industry a bad name. So our no-BS policy is, keep it simple from the start with an obligation free site attendance. Why? Because we are legitimately local, having eight tradesmen on the road, the likelihood of getting a call-in Bondi or Vaucluse asking for a plumber near now is high. One of our tradesmen is always nearby.
Many tradies like to advertise a $0 callout fee, although once on site, they charge a service fee which is often waived if a quote is approved, very sneaky, and we believe unethical. We are different, and we prefer to keep it simple and take the pressure away for both the client and our tradesmen.
We believe in earning the customers trust first and providing value right from the beginning; we have no issues providing free advice to our local community, our office in based in Dover Heights NSW 2030 so our tradesmen are never far!
We like to keep it simple from the start with an obligation free $0 Call Out Fee. Whether you call us direct or fill in a contact form, we do not charge for our initial call-out. We will come to your house and investigate your problem-free of charge. We will then provide you with a full quote to ensure it's clear from the start what your plumbing service will cost.
You are in control - if you are happy with the price provided, our plumbers will start immediately. If you are not satisfied with the proposal, there is no obligation and no call out fee required for our time and advice. We also offer all clients a complimentary home plumbing inspection to ensure no hidden surprises in the future.
We are passionate about making the entire process as transparent and straightforward as possible which starts with contacting your local emergency Sydney plumbing company 24 hours a day.
Proximity Plumbing does not have an hourly rate; we charge by the job. Although this does not appeal to everyone, we have found this is the most transparent way to conduct business. When it comes to plumbing, every job is different. That is why you are calling us in to fix it. We often find we need to see the problem before letting you know how much it will cost to fix it. That is why we offer the complimentary call out, and once we are on-site, we can determine what the job will cost. Each type of job has an upfront fixed price, and we need to determine what that is by conducting a thorough inspection.
We respect that our clients are often time-poor professionals who want the job done efficiently and affectedly. They also appreciate their time over money and understand the genuine value. We find billing hourly gives you the incentive to work less efficiently since you are being paid not for the outcome but for your time.
We encourage that if it’s a bigger job like a sewer rehabilitation or Pipe Relining to get multiple quotes and compare apples for apples. This way, you can see the difference that sets us apart from every other plumbing company & so you can see we are generally providing you with tremendous service, prices, and ultimately great value.
1. No professional plumber can ever give you a price over the phone without an on-site diagnosis just like no doctor could ever diagnosis a patient on the phone.
2. The old saying, “too good to be true” sums it up! do your research & shop local
3. It’s unwise to pay too much, but it’s worse to pay too little
There is a reason why we are the one number choice of The Eastern suburb’s community, this book will tell you why you should always choose a specialist over a generalist- save your time by obtaining multiple quotes, having the same issue getting fixed over and over & keeping your money in your pocket.
Food for thought: A generalist would be able to see an iceberg and analyse its importance to the ship’s course. But the same generalist, without a deeper knowledge of the iceberg, could be missing vital information on what is happening below the surface, you see - there is a difference.

Proximity Plumbing knows that a plumbing emergency can strike at any time, whether its 2 am from a burst flexible hose or Christmas day and the bathroom floor waste floods- Proximity Plumbing has you covered. That is why we are available and are the Sydney plumber of choice for 24 hours a day, seven days week plumbing services. We never charge overtime for these last-minute, lengthy repairs.

You can also read our blog on why we charge a call-out fee here. Have you ever heard of ' it's too good to be true?' chances are it is, if a plumber has all kinds of discounts and 'buy this get that' 50% off this, $100 off this' - it's just a scam to lure you in.
The age-old proverb “You Get What You Pay For” rings especially true with plumbers! However, when it comes to searching for “A Plumber Near Me” you will be inundated with “local” plumbers at bargain prices.
Again, this is a marketing tactic to be wary of - most likely, these plumbers will charge expensive fees when they finish the job and you’ll be hit with a lot of “extras”. So, take the time to call a few plumbers first and ask some key questions.
A good local plumber will come to your home and provide a free quote, so you know the total cost of repairs before the work starts!
Choosing the cheapest will not give you the best. A plumber is a qualified technician and has worked for many years to attain their level of expertise. Like any other professional. So, the work they carry out is meant to be of a certain quality and professionalism. In the long run, it’s better to pay a slightly higher price for a plumber who knows what they’re doing than to risk an unqualified person attending the job and making the issue worse.
We use upfront and easy-to-understand quoting system with no hidden costs. We believe in fantastic service to our clients and ensure your job is completed to the highest possible standard.
We accept Credit card (master card, visa & Amex)
Upon completion, you will receive a copy of the receipt and a copy of the invoice stating exactly what was carried out, with our lifetime labour warranty and manufacturer's warranty on any parts.
Our office has a record of each job, so for any reason you needed an additional copy of your invoice, we can happily assist with this.
We know our plumbing industry is highly competitive. However, not all plumbers hold the professionalism, knowledge, maturity & understanding like we do when it comes to customer service & that is what allows us to stand apart.
As Proximity Plumbing grows, we want to offer this same level of service to more people who need our expertise within the Eastern Suburbs; our aim is not to win everyone over but rather maintain our high level of service for the people who appreciate it.
Why would you choose Proximity Plumbing over a one-man band in a Ute who is a lot cheaper?

We value long-term relationships and work to know each property's unique characteristics to address any issues that inevitably arise over time effectively. No more stress & no more time wasted.
Our office staff take the time to understand our client's plumbing concerns over the initial consultation over the phone. Some of our clients are time-poor professionals, and their personality trait is to want the job done. Therefore we can match that personality to one of our fast-paced plumbers, others like Mrs smith wish to know all of the in's and out's of the scope of work and therefore we send one of our technicians who is a little more suited for that.
We will do our best to accommodate your request and assign your preferred plumber upon booking; however, should they not be available, another qualified team member will be assigned. Rest assured that all team members receive regular professional development training in the latest techniques and health and safety regulations. This ensures that they are well equipped to resolve any plumbing issue quickly and effectively.
Generally, if you are a long term client, when making the booking, our office staff know who precisely to allocate to the job as they have been previously; that way, both the client and our tradesman are familiar with each other and the property over the years.
If you are wanting to make a booking feel free to contact our team today.
