Chatswood Plumber
Apartments, Strata & 24/7 Emergency Plumbing
Water coming through the ceiling from the unit above? A drain backing up on the third floor, or a shopfront flooding before opening time? In a suburb built up in towers the way Chatswood is, the plumbing that matters most is the plumbing you can’t see – and tracing a leak two floors up is a very different job to fixing a tap in a house.
That’s the work we do here week in, week out: finding hidden leaks in apartments and high-rises, clearing shared strata drains, and working out who’s responsible – for owners, tenants and strata managers, for the offices and restaurants around the interchange, and for the homes out in Chatswood West.

Water Leaks in Chatswood Apartments and Towers
With so much of Chatswood living in apartments, the leak that shows up in your ceiling often starts in someone else’s bathroom a floor or two up. Finding the real source is the whole job - and doing it without opening up three units to guess.
In a strata building, a leak raises an awkward question: is it the owner’s to fix, or common property? We identify the source, document it with photos and a written report, and give you and the strata manager what you need to sort out responsibility and get the repair approved without a standoff.
For the offices, shops and restaurants in the Chatswood CBD, a leak means downtime and damage. We detect, contain and rectify commercial water leaks quickly, and coordinate with building managers so trading gets back to normal fast.

A burst pipe or a leak spreading through an apartment building can’t wait, so our emergency plumbers cover Chatswood around the clock, every day of the year, often within the hour, with the price agreed before we start.
Blocked drains, hot water, gas and the everyday
Alongside emergencies, we handle the everyday - blocked drains and toilets, hot water repairs and replacements across all the major brands, gas fitting, pipe relining and the leaking taps and running toilets that make up ordinary plumbing - for homes, units and businesses alike.

Real Reviews from Satisfied Clients
I really appreciated the honest advice, attention to detail, and fair pricing. I highly recommend R&G Plumbing to anyone looking for reliable, fairly priced, and professional plumbing services.
Thank you again to the entire R&G Plumbing team!
Initially, it looked like the floor would need to be dug up for a 1.5 day job$$, which we couldn’t afford. Instead, Jack kept investigating and found another access point through our neighbour’s carpark ceiling. He organised access to neighbours garage, removed the roots, and repaired the pipe at a much more affordable price. The roots were way worse than we expected.
As a young couple and first home buyers, this was our first time dealing with a plumber and we were pretty stressed since we thought it was a simple blockage but it turned out to be a complex issue. I gotta check the drainage when im purchase property in the future. Learnt my lesson!
Jeremy and Zac explained everything clearly and provided a detailed report and invoice so we can raise it with strata, as the drainage is linked to other units and may have further issues.
Really grateful for the honesty and effort. We’ve definitely found a plumber we trust and would happily connect with Jeremy’s team again.

Strata and Building Plumbing in Chatswood
Chatswood’s towers run on shared plumbing, so a fault in one unit is often a whole-building matter. We work with owners, tenants, strata committees and building managers.
Shared stacks, risers and hot water plant
We clear shared and common-property drains, trace faults through common stacks and risers, and service the central hot water plant and booster pumps that feed a whole building.
Reporting for strata and building managers
For anything on common property, we provide clear written reports and photos, so the owners’ corporation can approve and bill the work cleanly and quickly.

Plumber Chatswood FAQs
How do I find a 24/7 emergency plumber in Chatswood?
Call 0461 330 531 any hour - our emergency plumbers cover Chatswood around the clock, including nights, weekends and public holidays, and you’ll reach our team directly rather than a call centre. For a burst pipe or a spreading leak in an apartment building, ring first and, if you can, shut off the water at the meter or the unit’s isolation valve while we’re on the way.
Who’s responsible for a water leak in my Chatswood apartment - me or the strata?
Usually, yes. We use acoustic and thermal leak detection and moisture mapping to pinpoint a hidden leak behind a wall, under a floor or in a slab, so we open up only the small area that’s actually failing rather than demolishing a bathroom to go looking.
What does a plumber cost in Chatswood, and is there a call-out fee?
There’s no call-out fee - coming out to assess the job costs nothing. We look at the work and quote a fixed price before we start, so you’re never on an open-ended hourly rate, and there’s no surprise at the end. The quote is free, and there’s no obligation to go ahead.
How can I tell a good plumber from a dodgy one?
A few reliable signs: a current NSW licence number they’ll show you, public liability insurance, a fixed written quote before work starts rather than an open-ended hourly rate, and a plumber who’ll show you the problem - the leak-detection reading or the drain-camera footage - instead of just telling you. We do all of that as standard; ask us for the licence and the written quote every time.
Do you do strata and commercial plumbing in Chatswood?
Yes - a large part of our Chatswood work is strata and commercial. We handle shared stacks and common drains, hot water plant, and office, retail and restaurant plumbing including trade waste and backflow, and we provide the reporting owners, strata managers and building managers need.
Do you cover Chatswood West?
Yes - all of Chatswood and Chatswood West, plus the neighbouring Willoughby, Artarmon, Roseville, Lane Cove North and North Willoughby. Chatswood West’s freestanding homes near the river bushland get the usual house plumbing: blocked drains, hot water, gas and leak repairs.
