I had two jobs done. 1) fix a burst water pipe. 2) install water pressure valve as my water pressure was too high. They were punctual and did a very professional job. Anything they dug up, they filled. They left the work area cleaner than they found it. I ended up getting 4 quotes and they had the best price. I compared the quotes to other experiences online and they were very competitive and inline with other similar jobs across Australia. No complaints. Highly recommend!

​Fantastic service! Had a persistent leak in my shower, and Sam from Rapid Service Plumbing took care of it without any hassle. Arrived within 10 minutes of me calling him, explained what needed to be done, and left everything spotless when finished. It’s a huge relief to have it fixed properly. Highly recommend. I’ll definitely be reaching out again for any future plumbing needs! Thanks, Sam

Had an outstanding experience with the team! Sam the plumber came out to assess our sewer issue and made the entire process stress-free from start to finish. He explained everything clearly and kept us updated the whole time. A massive shoutout as well to Matt and Huss, the guys on the digger—they did an incredible job with the excavation, worked efficiently, and left the yard super tidy afterward. Polite, professional, and hardworking team. Highly recommend Sam, Matt, Huss, and the team at Rapid Service Plumbing to anyone needing major plumbing work done!

Sam from Rapid Service Plumbing was fantastic from start to finish. Our 18-year-old hot water system failed unexpectedly just before we went overseas. Even though it was late at night, Sam responded straight away, talked me through what to check, and arranged to come out the very next morning. He quickly diagnosed the issue, clearly explained why the old unit wasn't worth repairing, and recommended a Thermann continuous flow system. The installation was neat and professional, everything was tested and commissioned properly, and the work area was left spotless. He also took the time to explain how the new system works and answered all my questions without rushing. What really stood out was Sam's honesty, communication and reliability. There were no surprises, the pricing was transparent, and he genuinely cared about getting us back up and running with hot water as quickly as possible. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sam and Rapid Service Plumbing to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy plumber. Thanks again for the excellent service!

Thomas came out Saturday afternoon. I'm sure he thought it would be a simple job but stayed back and finished up, even after a few hiccups. Made sure that we weren't without hotwater for the weekend.

George came out on a short notice call and what a legend he was. Sorted a major blockage out in record time and even inspected it the whole way through providing some recommendations to avoid the issue in the future. Would recommend
When a drain keeps blocking

Local. Licensed. Fixed price.

When a drain keeps blocking

A drain that blocks once may simply have caught something it should not have. A drain that blocks repeatedly has a reason, and clearing it again without finding that reason means paying for the same job twice.

The usual causes are roots that have found a joint, a section that has cracked or partly collapsed, a sag that holds water and traps debris, or a build up of fat and waste narrowing the line. Each of these looks identical from the fixture. They are only distinguishable once you can see inside the pipe.

What we fix in Local Plumber Croydon

Our plumbing services in Croydon

Blocked drains and camera inspections, hot water repair and replacement, burst and leaking pipes, taps and toilets, gas fitting, roof plumbing and gutters, and bathroom and kitchen plumbing.

We Do It All!

We Do It All!

For a burst pipe or a serious leak, turn the water off at the mains tap before you call. If water is anywhere near power points, the switchboard or light fittings, stay clear and treat it as an electrical hazard. Do not enter standing water in a room with live power.

24/7 Emergency

What a drain camera actually tells you

A camera inspection is not just confirmation that a drain is blocked. It shows where the problem is, how far along the line, what is causing it, and what condition the rest of the pipework is in.

That matters because it changes the options. Roots at a single joint may be a small repair or a relined section. A collapsed length is a different job. A sag needs the grade corrected rather than the pipe replaced. Without seeing it, any quote is an estimate built on assumption, and you have no way to judge whether the fix is proportionate.

FAQ

Plumbing questions from Croydon residents

Questions we are regularly asked. If yours is not answered here, call the Sydney office on 02 9099 9138.

More than one drain is slow at the same time. What does that mean?

It usually means the problem is in the shared line rather than at any single fixture. If one basin is slow, the issue is normally close to that basin. If the shower, the toilet and the kitchen are all struggling, something further down is restricting flow for all of them. That is worth investigating properly rather than plunging each fixture in turn.

Are chemical drain cleaners worth trying first?

Generally not, and they can make things worse. They may clear a light build up in a basin, but they do nothing to roots or a structural fault, and the residue sits in the line. They can also damage older pipework and they create a hazard for whoever opens the drain afterwards. If a drain has resisted a plunger, it is better to have it looked at.

What is the difference between an electric eel and water jetting?

An eel is a rotating cable that cuts through and breaks up a blockage. Jetting uses high pressure water to scour the full width of the pipe and flush the debris away. An eel is often enough to restore flow quickly. Jetting cleans the line more thoroughly, which matters when the build up is along a length rather than at one point.

Can tree roots be removed permanently?

Cutting roots out restores flow, but the roots regrow because the entry point is still there. A permanent fix means repairing or relining the damaged section so there is nothing for them to grow into. A camera inspection identifies which section is affected and whether relining suits that pipe.

Will I know the cost before work starts?

Yes. Before work begins, we provide a written quote covering labour, parts and any other costs.
