A real person answers, day or night
A bathroom renovation lives or dies on what's under the tiles
Beautiful tiling over a rushed rough-in fails within a few years, while proper supply, waste and waterproofing lasts decades. Call (02) 9072 0513 and get the plumbing right before anything gets sealed in.
Bathrooms built across three very different decades
- 1980s infill closer to Eastgardens and Chifley tends to follow a fairly predictable bathroom footprint, but the membrane hidden beneath the tiles deserves a proper look before any retile begins Not always as sound as the surface suggests.
- Mid-century housing-commission bathrooms often still carry their original supply pipe and an undersized waste stack Both tend to get sorted only once a renovation actually opens the wall.
- Fibro-clad homes need a slightly different fixing approach for new fittings, though the plumbing itself follows the same standard regardless Wall material changes the method, not the outcome.
Bathroom plumbing services we provide
Every job below is planned around your layout, not squeezed around whatever's already there:
Full bathroom renovation rough-ins
Supply, waste and vent lines get run to a new bathroom layout, whether that's a straight refit or fixtures relocated entirely, with every connection pressure-tested before waterproofing and tiling seal the work away from view for good.
Shower and bath installation
New showers and baths get plumbed with correctly graded waste and secure supply connections, finished so the fall clears water properly and the fixture sits level and solid, ready for the tiler or waterproofer to take over without any surprises.
Vanity and basin plumbing
Vanities and basins get connected with tidy, accessible supply and waste runs, whether it's a straight swap for an existing unit or a new position altogether that needs fresh pipework brought through the wall or floor.
Toilet suite plumbing
A toilet suite gets connected or relocated with properly graded waste and a secure water supply, work that covers a simple like-for-like swap just as readily as moving the fixture to a completely different spot in a reconfigured layout.
Where bathroom jobs concentrate around the suburb
Two patterns explain most of the renovation work this crew sees:
- Housing-commission stock through the middle of the suburb generates the bulk of full rough-in renovations Original bathrooms there rarely suit a modern layout without real re-plumbing.
- 1980s infill nearer Eastgardens brings lighter refresh jobs, fixtures and finishes updated without moving the underlying pipework Still worth a proper check of what's already there first.
Common bathroom plumbing problems
Water pooling near the shower base
Water sitting near a shower rather than draining away cleanly usually points to a waste line that's lost its fall or a floor waste sitting slightly proud, and correcting the grade properly stops the pooling for good rather than masking it with more silicone.
A vanity that's never drained well
A vanity basin that empties slowly is commonly an undersized or partially blocked waste connection left over from an earlier fit-out, and re-running the waste to current standard clears the problem completely instead of a temporary clean-out.
Why getting bathroom plumbing right matters more than most rooms
A bathroom uses more water fixtures in a smaller footprint than almost anywhere else in the house:
- A poorly graded waste line means standing water and, eventually, damaged waterproofing Getting the fall right the first time protects the whole renovation's finish.
- A rushed rough-in gets sealed behind tiles, making any later fix far more disruptive and costly Doing it properly before the tiler arrives avoids that entirely.
- An undersized waste stack struggles once more fixtures get added Reviewing capacity during the renovation avoids slow drains for years afterward.
How it works
How a bathroom plumbing job works, step by step
Four steps, from a full renovation to a single fixture repair:
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0513 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Rough-in and connect
Every supply and waste run goes in to match the confirmed layout, and each fixture connection gets pressure-tested before waterproofing or tiling goes over it, so nothing gets covered up until it's proven to work properly.
- 04
Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Matraville
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Matraville works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Coordinating around a renovation builder's schedule is routine for this crew, not an extra ask.

Good questions, straight answers
Bathroom plumbing questions from Matraville homes
What does opening up a 1980s infill bathroom near Eastgardens usually reveal?
Generally a fairly standard layout for its era, though the waterproofing membrane underneath is often the first thing worth checking properly before any new tiling goes down.
Does a fibro bathroom need a different approach to a brick one?
Access and wall fixing methods differ slightly, but the actual plumbing work, supply, waste and fixture connections, follows the same standards regardless of what the wall's built from.
Can you reposition a toilet or shower during a renovation, not just replace what's there?
Yes, relocating fixtures means running new supply and waste lines to the new position, planned around your layout before the trades start rather than worked out on the fly.
How long does a full bathroom plumbing rough-in generally take?
It depends on how much is moving and the access involved, and your plumber gives a realistic timeframe as part of the fixed written quote before work starts.
Will you coordinate with my renovation builder and tiler?
Yes, bathroom plumbing gets timed to fit around waterproofing, tiling and cabinetry, this crew works to the wider schedule rather than setting its own.
Do older bathrooms usually need their waste stack upgraded during a renovation?
Often, since older stacks were sized for the fixtures of their time, and a modern renovation with more fixtures sometimes needs that capacity reviewed properly first.
