Plumbing in Ryde homes, units and strata buildings
Ryde is a real mix: Federation and post-war brick homes on big blocks, newer townhouses, and more and more apartments around Top Ryde, Victoria Road and Blaxland Road. Each brings its own problems.
Drains in older homes
Most of our Ryde calls are about drains. Older houses still run on clay sewer pipes, and big trees send roots into the joints. We show you the camera footage, clear it with the high-pressure jetter, and tell you honestly if it’s likely to come back. See blocked drains.
Apartments and strata
Blocked shared stacks, showers leaking into the unit below, and hot water units squeezed into tight cupboards. For strata buildings we offer regular drain maintenance and CCTV inspections. See strata plumbing.
Hot water and gas
Often a new valve or thermostat is all it takes. When a system is at the end of its life, we explain the running costs of each option. As licensed gas fitters we also fix gas leaks and connect cooktops and heaters.
Common Ryde jobs
- Tree roots in clay sewer pipes
- Rusted galvanised water pipes and low pressure
- Hot water repairs and replacements
- Blocked shared stacks in apartment buildings
- Leaking showers seeping into the unit below
- Gas leaks, cooktops and heaters
Honest second opinions
Told by another plumber that your pipe has collapsed or needs a big dig? We put our own camera down the line and show you the footage. More than once, a much smaller job fixed it.

Ryde plumbing questions
Is there a 24 hour plumber in Ryde?
Yes. GT Plumbing answers the phone 24/7, including weekends and public holidays, and we’re based nearby in Epping. Call 0451 001 503. If we miss your call, we call you back as soon as we’re off the tools.
How much does a plumber cost in Ryde?
Ryde is one of our listed service areas, so the business-hours call-out is $99, including fuel and the first 15 minutes of inspection (no digging). Labour is $165 an hour, including GST. You get the price before any work starts.
Why do my drains keep blocking?
In older Ryde homes the usual cause is tree roots getting into clay sewer pipes. Clearing them fixes the blockage, but roots grow back. A CCTV inspection shows whether the pipe is cracked and whether a repair will stop it happening again.
Do you work with strata and property managers in Ryde?
Yes. We look after apartment buildings and rental properties across Ryde, arrange access with residents or tenants, and send photos and a written report after every job.
Is GT Plumbing licensed?
Yes. NSW contractor licence 369979C for plumbing, gas and drainage. ABN 37 623 531 457.
What should I do about a burst pipe while I wait?
Turn the water off at the main stop tap, usually next to the water meter near the front boundary, and switch off the hot water system if the leak is close to it. Then call 0451 001 503.
