Get Your Water Efficiency Certificate
Landlords in Sydney need to obtain a Water Efficiency Certificate (WEC) to demonstrate their commitment to water conservation and to comply with the regulations set by the government of New South Wales. A WEC is a certificate that certifies that a property has been assessed for water efficiency and that any necessary upgrades or repairs have been made to ensure that the property is using water efficiently. Landlords must have a valid WEC when they rent out a property; this will help to save money on water bills, attract and retain tenants and comply with the regulations.
Another reason why landlords need to get a WEC completed is to save money on water bills. By ensuring that a property is using water efficiently, landlords can reduce the water used in the property and therefore reduce the water bill. This can also help to reduce the overall running costs of the property.
A WEC can also help landlords to attract and retain tenants. Many tenants are becoming more aware of the importance of water conservation and may prefer to rent properties assessed for water efficiency. This can also help landlords stand out in the market and attract tenants looking for more sustainable properties.

Plumbers in Sydney who obtain a Water Efficiency Certificate (WEC) demonstrate their commitment to promoting water conservation and helping clients reduce water consumption and costs. The process of obtaining a WEC involves completing a comprehensive training course and successfully passing a test that covers various aspects of water efficiency.
The training course covers a wide range of topics to ensure plumbers have a thorough understanding of water-efficient products and systems. This includes knowledge of different types of water-saving devices such as low-flow showerheads, dual-flush toilets, and greywater systems. Plumbers are also educated on the benefits and limitations of these products, allowing them to provide informed recommendations to their clients.
By holding a WEC, plumbers can assure their clients that they possess the necessary knowledge and expertise to install water-efficient products and systems effectively. This not only helps clients save money on their water bills but also contributes to sustainable water usage practices. In an increasingly environmentally conscious market, having a WEC can set plumbers apart from their competitors and attract clients who prioritize water conservation.
With a growing awareness of the importance of water conservation, clients are seeking plumbers who are knowledgeable about water-efficient solutions. Plumbers with a WEC have the credibility and expertise to address their clients' needs and offer practical solutions that align with sustainability goals. By staying up to date with the latest water-efficient technologies and practices, plumbers can deliver value-added services while positively contributing to water conservation efforts.

Read MoreFrequently Asked Questions About Proximity Plumbing
The short answer is: no, here’s why: just like seeing a doctor, a doctor cannot examine you or diagnose you over the phone without a personal examination; its much the same with plumbing, its best we investigate the issue first before providing you with a solution and a price.
We do this by offering a $0 call-out fee on all jobs, once onsite and have investigated the issue we can then provide a solution moving forward, if approved we will carry out the work, if not there is no obligation - you can find out more about our pricing and the reason why we don't like to provide prices over the phone our pricing page: https://proximityplumbing.com.au/plumbing-prices/
Unfortunately, too many plumbers will give quotes over the phone. This is entirely unprofessional and no more than a marketing ploy to entice you to engage them to solve your problem. Would you expect a doctor to diagnose a medical condition over the phone? It's easier to diagnose a medical issue over the phone than a plumbing problem, but no doctor will do so without first examining you.

Most people think plumbing is dirty work. Sure, you may have to deal with blocked toilets, sewer lines and drains but there’s way more to this job than toilets and drains. The plumbing industry is very important because, without it, modern life wouldn't exist. More and more residential, commercial and industrial areas are being build up, and problems with drainage, sewer system, pipes and other plumbing problems appear too frequently. As such, plumbers are required to install, as well as repair and maintain these systems regularly and efficiently.
As we must say, there are pros and cons of being a plumber. People's perception of the plumbing industry does change dramatically from time to time. Plumbing is a physically demanding job and you have to be fit and strong to do it. You have to work in extreme conditions. It's dirty and can be dangerous yet, it is a rewarding job.
To become a good and effective plumber, you need to have various skills and competencies including: problem-solving skills, critical thinking skills, safety skills, good communication skills, physical skills and the most important one should be to complete technical plumbing courses.

Sydney Plumbing Emergencies often happen late at night, early in the morning or on a weekend/public holiday? These problems always seem to come at the worst possible time. For this reason, there are often plumbers who will take advantage and advertise rates that are often too good to be true in the hope you book them in and then, once
locked in, jack the prices up, usually 2-5 times the regular rate.For all Sydney plumbing emergencies, we charge a flat fee between $250 - $350 + GST, which covers the after-hours call out to your door and will usually cover the minimum costs associated with making the property safe as this is our number one priority. Once onsite, you will never pay any extra rates for after-hours services. From midday to
midnight, the rate you pay will stay the same as if the works were done during regular operating hours.The next time you are in a plumbing situation, do not hesitate to contact your trustworthy local eastern suburbs plumber.

The best way to find the 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 has been in the plumbing industry. The more experience the plumber or company has - the better the service usually is.

If you’re suddenly in need of a professional plumber, your next thought may be “how much do plumbers charge?” And it’s a fair question - we’ve all heard the horror stories of plumbers ripping off clients left, right and center.
How Much Do Plumbers Charge?
It is one of the most asked questions in the industry. How much do plumbers charge in Sydney Australia? The answer is: It depends on the company and the service. “Plumbing” is a very general term and covers all things from replacement washers and burst Flexi hoses to a full pipe relining job. Different plumbers will structure their quotes differently, but here’s something to be wary of: super cheap and overly “easy” quotes.
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.

When it's NOT the time to DIY plumbing!
There’s an awesome sense of achievement when you’ve had a morning of being a handyman or handy woman around the house, fixing things and feeling like Tim the Toolman (for all our growing-up-in-the-90’s readers).
But when it comes to your home’s plumbing there are a few instances where DIY is not the best course of action. Professional plumbers spend years learning their trade for good reason - those pipes can be tricky!
So here are 5 times when DIY is not your friend and it’s time to call a professional plumber:
- In an emergency situation
- If you’re having sewage issues
- When you smell gas
- You have a leak
