Your Plumbing Service Report
A strata service report is a critical document that outlines the plumbing services performed in a strata property. It provides important information about the plumbing system's condition and helps to identify any potential issues that may arise in the future. A comprehensive strata service report should include the strata property information, such as the address and the owner's corporation details, as well as details of the plumbing services performed. This includes a description of the work carried out, such as repairs, installations, and maintenance tasks.
The report should also provide an assessment of the plumbing system, including any potential issues or areas of concern, along with recommendations for repairs and upgrades. Cost estimates should be included, detailing the expected expenses for any recommended work. Compliance details, such as meeting legal requirements and safety standards, should also be included.
Warranty or guarantee information should be documented, along with the signatures of the plumbing service provider and strata manager. The report should provide a clear and detailed summary of the plumbing services performed and any associated costs to ensure the ongoing functionality and safety of the plumbing system in the strata property.

awarded to strata service companies that:
- Demonstrate outstanding commitment to working within strata schemes, community
schemes and title buildings. - Have a sound and working knowledge of all rules, laws and legislation regarding strata,
community and title buildings. - Consistency undertake their duties professionally and efficiently, making things easier

Our Sydney Strata Portfolio
Our services are insured and licensed (Lic 275278c), extensive and comprehensive. We’ve been working closely with industry-leading body groups such as Pica Group & Strata Community Australia to ensure we are leaders and often advisors to strata schemes across Sydney’s eastern suburbs. Being rewarded as a Strata Services Specialist by Strata Community Australia, New South Wales’ leading professional body for the strata and community title industry, is a way we have ensured unquestionable 5-star service.
Identifying Problems Early
We pride ourselves on our proactive commitment to industry best practices. We play an active role in maintaining the highest standards throughout the plumbing and electrical industry. We believe preventative maintenance is the key to preserving assets, including equipment, fixtures and pipework.
Our objective is to minimize disruptions to business operations and maximise the working life of the building assets. We review existing infrastructure to advise clients on potential future issues or regular maintenance needs.
We will discuss options to help reduce service costs or the risk of damage with preventative techniques and planned improvements. Our priority is to reduce emergency plumbing issues, increase safety and minimise the impact on both the owner's corporation and the strata property managers.
What You Can Expect From Your Plumbing Service Report.
At the end of the day, not everyone has studied for six years to be a plumber, and we cannot expect everyday people to understand what has been typically written by most plumbers. We have invested in the latest technology and apps to show our clients the options they are choosing visually.
This all starts with our clients being in complete control of the decisions they are making and understanding the issue they are presented with. We find that it’s much easier to write a simple report with the essential facts, less plumbing lingo, and more valuable pictures that can be used as a visual aid rather than an in-depth six-page essay on a blockage drain (which is totally unnecessary).
We will guide you, step-by-step, through our recommendation on the best way to tackle your plumbing issue and get the job done quickly and efficiently with the least amount of disruption to your home or property.
This way, it’s transparent, and we know our clients will be left satisfied knowing exactly what they are paying for and what is going on with their home plumbing. To top it off, Proximity Plumbing provides a hard copy of all quotations, invoices & CCTV footage of the work undertaken, a warranty and reference. This way, it’s peace of mind, so our clients can always refer back to it.
We leave nothing to chance. We are up to date with the current industry rules, compliance and regulations to help provide a professional and unique service that considers the needs of strata owners and strata managers.
We know that strata and community living is unique in many ways, especially since the latest covid 19 pandemic. It is essential to have strata industry specialists who are trained to understand the individual needs of those properties and their owners. This ultimately minimises confusion, and misunderstanding and delivers a more efficient outcome.

Read MoreFrequently Asked Questions Sydney Strata 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.
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 in Sydney.

The cost of hiring a plumber will depend on the scope of work, your location and their level of experience. There are simple plumbing jobs such as tap repairs to more complicated ones like a burst pipe. There are plumbing tasks that are calculated on an hourly basis while others offer flat rates based on the scope of the job. Always ask for itemised quotations to plan your budget and avoid pricing surprises.

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- licensed vs unlicensed plumber blog here.

There are many industries that require the services of trained plumbers. Therefore, the demand for skilled plumbing services is increasing.
Plumbing is on the top list of jobs that are in high demand in Australia at the moment. It’s a simple supply and demand case. That’s why territories around Australia need highly qualified plumbing professionals that can work on any task such as tap repairs or drainage systems. Plumbing is a regulated and licensed trade, which allows workers to work their way up to a master plumber.
In big cities like in Melbourne, Perth and Sydney territories, the development is continuous. Skills of trade workers such as plumbers are required to keep the development moving forward.

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
