Fix leak from electric water heater

$250

Surry Hills, New South Wales

20th Dec 2025

I need a plumber to fix a leaking hot water tank. I tightened the nut but it keeps leaking. Might need to reseal the joint. It is a steady leak (approx. 1 litre every few hours) coming from a joint. It is constant and does not depend on taps being turned on. Location: The water tank is in the attic. Access is easy via a standard door in the wall. Materials: Please include the cost of materials (solder, flux, or replacement couplings) in your total quote. Parking: Free parking is available on-site. Timing: Must be fixed before Christmas. Availability: I am flexible and can meet any time between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM any day this week. Note: I am looking for a reliable, permanent fix. If successful, I'll reach out to you in the future if I have more plumbing work.

Haissm explained the problem and described how to fix it in a great detail.

Hi have a fair few electrical related projects coming up in our music recording studio in Surry Hills One is urgent but simple and then some larger stuff which we are now mapping out and want to get in some quotes and assess as some involve electrical but also some basic heavy lifting and mounting of large ceiling panels with lighting etc Urgent task 1 Looking to replace our air conditioning manual switch with an automatic timed switch. Ideally would love a suggestion as to best option. Wifi capability would be great. Or if not sure, we have a few suggestions and will just need you to install it This is urgent BUT we also have a bigger project for the right tradey. Tasks ( longer term) We’re planning a few upgrades to our recording studio space in Surry Hills and would like a quote for electrical and installation work. The scope mainly involves new power points, lighting adjustments, and mounting equipment. Ideally, someone who can handle both electrical work and installation of heavy roof/wall-mounted materials. The panels to be installed on the roof are going in to gyprock, there are studs which need to be located and carefully drilled in to, so someone with experience in this area is preferred. We’d suggest a site visit beforehand so we can walk you through the space and finalise a plan to complete everything efficiently. Look forward to hearing from you asap Joe

I need an electrician to apply Promaseal A Acrylic Sealant (available from Reece) to a small hole in some fyrchek. The hole was created to place a light switch onto the fyrchek and it now needs to be sealed up to retain its fire rating.

15th Sep 2025

I’m looking to change my oven from gas to electric and was told that the power breaker will need a a new outlet and wiring to do this. Currently the electrical box is in a bedroom on the same level and is about 5m away from where the oven is. I also need Strata approval for this so will need a licenced electrician with the usual paperwork.

Joey was absolutely amazing to work with. He walked me through the process which made me feel comfortable and at ease. He did an amazing job and would definitely recommend him to others for further work.
