PRICE GUIDE

WHAT DOES A PLUMBER COST IN SYDNEY?

Most everyday jobs, like a leaking tap, a blocked drain or a toilet repair, cost between $220 and $1,400. Bigger work like a hot water replacement or pipe relining is priced on site. You always get a fixed, written price before any work starts, and the call-out is $0 in business hours (Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm).

No call-out fee in business hours. Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm, we attend and assess for free. Outside those hours an emergency call-out fee of $199 to $399 applies.

Same job price day or night. Your fixed price for the work is the same at 2am as at 2pm. No penalty loading on the job itself.

Price locked before we start. One hour or five, you pay what you approved.

Interest-free payment plans. Weekly, fortnightly or monthly. Set up on site.

Typical ranges for standard residential jobs. Your price depends on access and parts, and is confirmed on site.
