      Beth Bull
      Emergency Plumbing Surry Hills was the BEST and AMAZING. I called today after 9am to install the ceiling fan and check the switch board, 2hrs later Chris and Luca arrived. They advised what they can do. As soon as I agreed to the price they started the work. They were both professional, efficient, friendly and did a fantastic job. They tested everything to make sure everything is working fine and they took all the rubbish, no mess at all. I will 100% recommend them to everyone I know.
      Chris Ace
      We recently had the pleasure of having an amazing team come to our home to install four ceiling fans and downlights in our bedrooms, and we couldn't be more impressed with their work. David and his colleague (unfortunately, we didn’t catch his name) were both incredibly professional, friendly, and efficient. They arrived on time, worked quickly, and paid close attention to every detail, ensuring everything was installed perfectly.
      Alan Evans
      Very happy with the customer service and quality of their work. They turned up on time and fully quoted in advance. It was a pleasure to do business with Chris & Luka.
      James Dewar
      Clean, friendly and respectable. Great with pets and reliably on time. They obviously take pride in there work and I appreciate the honesty and work they have performed. 1 new ceiling fan + 3 replaced and a fan light in the bathroom replaced. Replaced the circuit board on the house and brought it into the modern era with safety switches I thought we had but didn't. I will definitely use these guys again and recommend highly to any one looking for a good sparky!
      Mel Elliott
      Emergency Plumbing Surry Hills have just finished up after a meter-box replacement and some rewiring to replace some old-style cloth wrapped cabling. They've done a great job, were really friendly and helpful, and left everything clean and tidy. They didn't even mind our dogs "helping".
      Syed Zaidi
      David & Chris were extremely professional and quick, given they came down immediately on a 40 degree day to sort out our power issues. They not only corrected the issue extremely quickly, but explained their steps and pricing (which was the fairest of 4 local quotes). In addition, they physically showed what the problem is and tested it in front of us. Brilliant service provided by the guys. I would highly recommend.
      Lana TR
      I am happy with the work completed and the total price was very reasonable. I gave them a huge list of jobs that I needed done and they smashed it out in one day. The guys were friendly and respectful, and they left the house clean when they were done. The admin side was very prompt and organised, I'll be using them again.
      Jacqui Damrow
      Timely booking process and good communication. The electrician arrived on time and did a great quality ot work and explained everything well.
      Simon Wilson
      We had a bathroom exhaust fan replaced. Chris was very professional and sourced and replaced the fan within a short period of time at a good price. Will be using these guys again if needed.
      Jonathan Vincent
      The job was completed well and the guys who did it were friendly helpful and skilled. Only problem was that it cost a lot more than expected.
      Will
      On time, great knowledge and expertise and found ways to make the work done as affordable as possible. Also took the time to quickly check out non-related electricals to make sure everything was safe!
      Jae Lee
      Chris and Luka were absolutely fantastic, and we couldn't recommend them enough. They were very professional, efficient and diligent, while showing care to explain things in detail. Thanks again Chris and Luka!
      Gavin Jones
      A+ service from Chris and Luca of the Emergency Plumbing Surry Hills team, from coming out to do free quote, to giving us breathing space to explore our options to completing job; nothing but first class professionals. The boys did an amazing job of explaining our options from interest free finance, to explaining throughout the day what was being done. They were on-time, polite and did a solid clean before leaving.
      Trixi Reut
      The electrician were punctual, kept us informed about what they are doing, cleaned up after, took the old rangehood, explained the new one and guaranty, were friendly and kind.

      Answers to Common Questions

      FAQs About Emergency Blocked Drains

      Still have questions about our emergency blocked drain services in Surry Hills? Check out these frequently asked questions or reach out to our team for expert advice. We’re available 24/7 to help you determine the best approach for your drainage emergency.

      Common signs include water backing up from drains, gurgling sounds from toilets or sinks, foul odours emanating from drains, multiple fixtures being affected simultaneously, or water pooling around floor drains or outside gully traps. For Surry Hills properties, especially older terraces, slow drainage that suddenly worsens can indicate a critical blockage that needs immediate attention before complete failure occurs.

      We pride ourselves on rapid response times for all emergency blocked drain situations. For Surry Hills properties, we typically arrive within 30 to 60 minutes of your call, depending on current traffic conditions. Our emergency plumbers are strategically positioned throughout Sydney to ensure we can reach you quickly when drainage disasters strike, regardless of the time of day or night.

      We employ a variety of professional drain clearing techniques depending on the nature and severity of the blockage. For emergency situations, we often begin with drain snakes or augers for quick relief, followed by high-pressure water jetting to thoroughly clear the pipe. For complex blockages, we use CCTV drain cameras to pinpoint the exact location and cause, allowing for targeted, effective solutions rather than guesswork.

      Absolutely. To prevent emergency blockages, avoid disposing of fats, oils, and grease down kitchen sinks; never flush wet wipes, sanitary products, or paper towels; use drain strainers in showers and sinks; periodically flush drains with hot water; consider regular professional maintenance for properties with recurring issues; and be mindful of tree planting near sewer lines, especially in established Surry Hills gardens where root intrusion is common.

      If you’re experiencing an overflowing drain, first try to minimise water usage in your home to prevent further overflow. If possible, safely turn off the water supply to the affected fixture. Place towels or buckets to contain the water and prevent damage to floors and belongings. Then call our emergency line immediately for urgent assistance. Do not use chemical drain cleaners, as they can complicate the issue and potentially damage your plumbing system.
