Why Choose Us As Your Local Eastern Suburbs Emergency Plumber?
When it comes to an emergency and you’re thinking of “plumbers near me”, it pays to call a plumber with experience in identifying the cause and effect of the issue immediately. For the team at proximity plumbing, it’s almost second nature knowing how and where to tackle the issue often without even being to site.
Our 24-hour 7-day service is a standard, as we want clients to know we can be relied upon when the time comes. Too often a plumber is called under stressful circumstances, but we aim to reduce this as much as possible with our reliability and professionalism.

One of the reasons customers always return is our friendly nature, knowledge, passion, and integrity. We pride ourselves on our service and the relationships we build with our customers.
With 25 years of collective experience in Kyle Bay works alone, there has not been a job we could not address, for example, a burst pipe or gas leak which is often one of the reasons we get a call. Many plumbers would rush out to get to your property without first attempting to assist you in finding your nearest isolation tap. This advice and assistance alone can ultimately save your hundreds if not thousands and dollar in damages and after-hours service calls.
Another common emergency call-out we receive is blocked or clogged drains which can be caused by something as simple as an excessive hair in your shower drain or as dramatic as a sudden surge in stormwater causing your pits and downpipes to overflow and roof to leak. Have you recently checked if the hair is caught inside your drains, 9/10 you can resolve the issue by pulling apart your waste connection beneath?
