    Outstanding Service! Our continuous flow gas hot water system broke down today, and we needed an urgent replacement. Spencer & Sons went above and beyond—coming out on a Friday afternoon, diagnosing the issue, and installing a brand-new unit all before the sun had set. Their professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail were second to none. It’s rare to find a team so reliable and dedicated, but we’ve definitely found our go-to plumber! Highly recommend Spencer & Sons for anyone needing top-notch plumbing services. Thanks again for the exceptional work!

    Brae and his colleague from Spencer and Sons Plumbing were absolutely phenomenal today. They replaced our old gas-powered hot water tank with a top-of-the-line new one and made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Their efficiency and expertise were truly impressive. Brae took the time to walk me through the new setup, ensuring I felt comfortable with everything. On top of that, he went above and beyond by helping us switch out four hot and cold taps and offering valuable advice on other plumbing matters. My parents and I were thrilled with the level of service provided. We’ll definitely be calling on them for any future plumbing needs. Highly recommended!

    I can't recommend Simon from Spencer & Sons Plumbing highly enough. He literally just saved me $4600. $5,000 was the quote I got the day before, from another local plumber to unblock my sewerage pipe. They arrived but couldn't fix the problem that day, so another guy came the next day, still couldn't unblock the pipe, and quoted me $5000 to dig it up. I said no fortunately, and so they charged me $996, they wanted an extra $260 for the second day, but I refused as they hadn't fixed it. So thanks sooo much Simon.

    Just bought a house which needed a bit of work. S&S knocked it off quickly! Great finish on the work. Managed to located a buried shutoff too! I highly recommend S&S. They turn up when they say they will, give you good advice, get the job done quickly and don't cost an arm and a leg!

Frequently asked questions

How much do plumbers typically charge?
Plumbing costs vary significantly depending on the type of job and its complexity. Simple fixture repairs are generally much less than jobs involving pipe replacement, excavation or gas appliance work. Most quotes include a call-out fee, hourly labour and parts, with after-hours or emergency attendance usually attracting higher rates. This page shows live pricing for jobs in your area.
Do plumbers charge call-out fees?
Call-out fees are common and are often used to cover travel and the initial assessment. Plumbers typically add hourly labour and any materials or replacement parts to the call-out fee. After-hours, weekend or emergency attendances are usually charged at higher rates and some small jobs may have a minimum charge.
Do plumbers need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Plumbing work must be carried out by a licensed plumber in every Australian state and territory, and in NSW the regulator is NSW Fair Trading (Building Commission NSW). Plumbers will generally provide their licence number and should be able to supply compliance certificates for regulated work. Look for an ABN, public liability insurance and relevant industry memberships as additional trust signals.
