The cost of hiring a plumber ranges from $50 to $250, depending on the complexity of the job and your plumbing needs. An emergency plumber may charge more due to callout fees to travel on your site. The rates for mixer tap installation range from $100 to $800 per tap. The cost of installing a new toilet can start at $410 and go up to $1,000. On the other hand, gas fitting services may cost more due to the complexity of the work. Set a budget for your plumbing maintenance, repairs, and installation.

A simple unblocking of a toilet can take less than an hour if the blockage is minor. Other tasks like installing a hot water system can take an entire day or more, depending on the difficulty of installing the hot water tank, valves, required pipes, wiring, and any other components. Most plumbing services can take at most a day; this may take longer if the issue involves the sewer line and sewer camera inspection services are required to find the problem. 

Yes! Should you offer plumbing services but have more jobs than you can handle, you can hire Taskers to boost your staff. Make a post with all the crucial information, such as a description of the job, the kind of skills, level of experience, and the quality of work you expect from your Tasker. Qualified master plumbers nearby will reply to your post with a free quote, and you can start negotiating from there. 

Yes, but only if it involves simple plumbing tasks like patching a leak or clearing a minor blockage from a toilet. More complicated jobs like CCTV surveying or installing a hot water system require a licenced professional who has working knowledge of soldering, electricals, pressurisation, temperature, and, in some cases, carpentry. We advise you don’t attempt to do plumbing that requires tools, materials, and techniques you have no knowledge or experience with; you’d best use Airtasker to hire professionals for these types of work.

While their areas of expertise and the nature of their job can be similar in some aspects, commercial and residential plumbers are quite different. Residential plumbers cover fewer tasks, while commercial plumbers deal with more pipes and plumbing fixtures, and offer other building services. Commercial plumbers also have more safety and health codes to consider, especially if they’re working on the plumbing of a restaurant, hotel, or other large-scale food business.

There are a few plumbers available 24 hours but expect them to charge more. If you live in a large, urbanised area, you should have little trouble finding someone to fix your plumbing issue at short notice. This may prove more difficult if you’re in a smaller locale. Should you need a plumber during off-peak hours, it’s not uncommon to find one in your region. Just prepare to pay more if they need to travel a long distance.

For certain types of tasks, you may need to enquire as to what specialist licenses may be required to undertake your task as this can vary. Please make sure that you confirm that a Tasker has the relevant plumbing licence and insurance before accepting an offer.

No. While you don’t have to provide any tools for local plumbing services, you should provide whatever device that must be installed. Taskers provide their expertise, labour, skills and years of experience when performing a service. You can expect them to arrive at your location well-equipped and prepared to unblock your toilet, install your hot water system, or do whatever service you hired them to deliver. 

Yes. Here are some drainage systems your Tasker could possibly help with:

Surface drainage systems

Surface drainage systems are located on the ground. It features a slight slope, so that water can easily flow into the drain. They are installed in a parallel form to prevent flooding or water pooling. Problems with your surface drainage develop slowly through the years. It’s important to keep the stormwater drain on the curbside clear to keep water constantly flowing. Taskers can help you maintain your surface drainage by assisting you with clearing blocked or frozen stormwater drains. 

Subsurface drainage systems

The primary function of an installed subsurface drainage system at home is to ensure that water does not build up in your soil. Its main drain is installed to collect the water, and it’s built and installed on the first layer of soil. If you’re building a new home, you may ask a Tasker to install this type of drainage. You may also notice a problem in this common backyard drainage system when you spot standing water after the rain. If this happens, call in a professional to help unblock and clean your drainage. 

Internal pipes

Many pipes run through the inside of your home. They carry water to your bathroom and kitchens. More importantly, these pipes bring unclean water down the drain pipes. When installing your kitchen sink, you usually have traps put into sealing off the sewer smell. Fitting electrical showers also means having drains as part of the internal pipes. We typically spot problems with these when we see leaks, sediment build-up, or notice foul smells coming from the drain. Professionals can unclog or replace these types of residential drainage systems.

Downspouts and gutters 

All homes contain a downspout and gutter drainage system. It helps remove roof water and comes in two parts: the downspout and the gutter. The gutter catches the water on the roof and leads it to the downspout to let water flow down to the surface drainage. It’s common to encounter problems on your gutters since the debris is usually caught here. Taskers can help clean out gutters and unblock the downspout. You can also seek help from a tradesman when you spot leaks on the pipes.

It may be difficult to spot problems with underground drainage issues. What you can note down are your observations about a certain area. This can be if you notice your soil doesn’t dry out after the rain. It can also be that you see flooding in your backyard. Your Tasker can help you locate which underground drain is causing the issue with your different observations.

What do plumbing services include?

Plumbing services include all the activities necessary to ensure that your water supply pipes, fittings, and other plumbing systems work properly. It covers tasks that most general plumbers offer, such as sewer inspection services, bathroom and kitchen installations, boiler repairs, and the usual drainage system and plumbing maintenance at home. Your Tasker can also perform other plumbing and heating work. Whether you're looking for master plumbers or an emergency plumber, you can ask them for help with the following services: 

Toilet unblocking

Don't let unclogged toilets ruin your day! Plumbers can save the day when it comes to toilet unblocking. Should your toilet get clogged, your hired plumber can remove the obstruction in the waste outlet and ensure that your toilet flushes again as normal. They can use the most appropriate and effective unblocking tools and techniques without damaging your toilet or its pipes. For the most extreme blockages, some plumbers may offer sewer CCTV inspection services and use high-quality drain cameras to get to the root of the problem.

Toilet repairs

There's nothing worse than your toilet needing repairs. Once your toilet’s tank overflows, doesn’t fill up completely, or doesn’t work as normal, your hired plumber can deliver a fast response and readily fix these issues. They can perform a thorough inspection of the toilet’s outer and inner workings. After extensive inspection and troubleshooting, they can repair or replace the defective components as needed. 

Hot water system installation

Your plumber can do everything necessary to install a new hot water system in your home or replace your outdated system with a new one. Some plumbers can also help you choose the right hot water system best suited for your home if you haven’t purchased one yet. They can inspect the site and ensure that it’s safe and large enough to accommodate the system and its components. Once it’s ready, they can install it right away in compliance with building codes, state regulations, and industry best practices. 

Fridge water line installation 

When you want your fridge to supply ice cubes, filtered water, or both, your plumber can install new pipes and valves to supply and regulate water to your fridge. They can install the new water line using the appropriate materials, tools, and techniques without any damage to your home or property.

After the work is done, you can also get another Tasker to clean up the property and make sure it’s back to its pre-installation condition.

Leak repairs

If you have water pooling in your bathroom or dripping from your ceiling, your hired plumber can use video cameras or CCTV cameras to inspect your burst pipe and perhaps your entire plumbing system to find the source of the leaks. They can then patch up or replace any leaks, breaks, and other issues as appropriate.

Now that you’ve got your plumbing under control, how about getting someone to replace your roofing tiles or install a solar panel as well? No matter how big or small the job, contractors on Airtasker can handle all your roofing needs.

Unblock shower drain

$250

Box Hill South VIC, Australia

14th Mar 2024

I'd like to get a shower drain unblocked. Using a cheap drain snake does nothing, and the block is so severe that it immediately fills the shower floor with water after 15-30 seconds. I'd prefer not to use chemicals that cause fumes as at least one of us will be home during this. I'll pay $150 extra if you're willing to clean the grime on the tiles as well - they'll probably need sandpaper and chemicals as some of it is plaster.

Great work done quickly, with communication on how to prevent this sort of thing happening again in the future. Would recommend!
