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

Plumbing for a suburb built on a slope

Terrain drives most of the plumbing work in Lane Cove. Sloping blocks concentrate stormwater, bushland trees hunt for the moisture inside old sewer joints, and the suburb's mix of 1950s brick homes and newer village apartments means no two jobs look alike. Here is what we handle most:

Stormwater that actually drains: Overflowing gutters, pooling backyards and runoff cascading from the neighbour's block uphill are everyday Lane Cove problems. We clear and repair stormwater and drainage systems, install channel drains and pits where the old setup cannot cope, and our roof plumbing team makes sure gutters and downpipes feed water where it should go instead of into your ceiling.

Blocked drains near bushland: Streets backing onto the gullies see constant root intrusion into older sewer lines. Our blocked drain plumbers clear them with high-pressure jetting, inspect by CCTV camera, and fix cracked sections permanently with pipe relining rather than trenching down a sloped garden. Recurring sewer blockages get a root-cause answer, not another temporary clear.

Hot water for houses and village units: We repair and replace hot water systems across Lane Cove, from big family storage tanks in the older homes to compact continuous-flow and gas units that suit apartment living. You get a straight recommendation matched to your household, not the dearest thing on the van.

Everything urgent: A burst pipe on a sloping block does damage fast because the water travels. Our emergency plumbers answer 24 hours a day, every day, for bursts, gas leaks and blockages, and our licensed gas fitters cover appliance installs, repairs and safety checks in ordinary hours too.

What we fix in Lane Cove

The plumber Lane Cove calls back

Repeat customers are the backbone of our Lane Cove work, and they come back for the same three reasons: a fixed price agreed before we start, a van stocked to finish the job in one visit, and a written guarantee on the workmanship. From the village to the river, and across the wider North Shore, call (02) 9099 9138.

FAQ

Lane Cove plumbing questions

What Lane Cove locals ask us most, from stormwater to strata.

My backyard floods every big storm. Can that be fixed?

Almost always, and the fix depends on where the water is coming from. On Lane Cove's sloping blocks it is often runoff from higher ground overwhelming an old or silted stormwater line. We inspect the existing pits and pipes, clear what is blocked, and where the system genuinely cannot handle the volume we quote upgrades such as channel drains, extra pits or a larger discharge line. You will know the cause before you spend anything on the cure.

Why does my sewer block up every year or two?

Repeat blockages on the same line are nearly always tree roots re-entering through a crack or open joint, which is common on streets backing onto Lane Cove's bushland. Jetting clears the symptom; relining the damaged section removes the entry point so the cycle stops. A camera inspection tells us which section is at fault, and we show you the footage rather than asking you to take our word for it.

Do you handle plumbing for the units around the village?

Yes, both for individual owners and for strata. Typical jobs in Lane Cove's apartment buildings include burst flexible hoses, hot water replacements in tight cupboards, blocked shared stacks and compliance inspections. We can deal directly with your strata manager, provide written reports, and schedule work to suit building access requirements.

What will it cost, and do I pay a call-out fee just for a quote?

Every job is priced up front: we inspect, give you a fixed quote, and the price does not move once you accept it. That way there is no meter running while we work. For emergencies outside normal hours we tell you the applicable rates on the phone before we dispatch, so the decision is yours with the numbers in hand.

Can you install a gas cooktop or heater in Lane Cove?

Yes. Our licensed gas fitters run new gas lines, install and connect cooktops, ovens and space heaters, and carry out the compliance checks and certification that go with them. If your home does not currently have gas to the kitchen, we can quote the line extension and the appliance connection as one fixed price job.
