About Surry Hills

Surry Hills is packed tight. Over 15,000 people living right on the doorstep of the CBD. The streets are full of Victorian terraces and workers’ cottages from the 1850s. Beautiful to look at. Nightmare to plumb.

About 29% of places are terraces and townhouses. The rest are apartments and units in converted warehouses and newer builds. That mix of 100-year-old cast iron pipes and high-density living means we get calls from Surry Hills constantly.

Tree roots love the old clay sewer lines around here. The sandy clay soil shifts with the weather and cracks pipe joints over time. If your drains are slow or backing up, chances are it’s one of those two things. We’ll get it sorted.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a plumber cost in Surry Hills?

Our Surry Hills plumbing services start with a $0 call-out fee. We provide upfront, fixed-price quotes before any work begins so there are no surprises. The cost depends on the job — a simple tap repair will differ from a full hot water system replacement. Call 0485 000 670 for a free quote tailored to your situation.

Do you offer emergency plumbing in Surry Hills?

Yes, we provide emergency plumbing services across Surry Hills and surrounding suburbs. Whether it’s a burst pipe in a Crown Street terrace or a blocked drain in an apartment building, our plumbers respond quickly to minimise damage and get your plumbing back on track.

What causes Blocked Drains in Surry Hills?

The most common causes of Blocked Drains in Surry Hills are tree root intrusion into old earthenware sewer pipes, grease and fat build-up in terrace house kitchen drains, and general debris accumulation in ageing shared drainage systems. Many Surry Hills properties still have original 19th-century clay pipes that are highly susceptible to cracking and root penetration. We use CCTV cameras to diagnose the problem and jet blasting to clear the blockage.

Can you reline pipes in Surry Hills without digging?

Absolutely. Pipe Relining is ideal for Surry Hills properties where excavation is impractical — particularly terraced houses with shared walls, courtyards with tiled surfaces, or properties with limited rear access. We insert a resin-impregnated liner into the damaged pipe, which cures to form a new pipe within the old one. It’s faster, less disruptive, and comes with a 50-year warranty.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. Ready Set Plumb offers a $0 call-out fee for all jobs in Surry Hills. You only pay for the work we do, with transparent pricing agreed before we start.
