Units, Strata And Renters
Fairfield is the only suburb we cover where units outnumber houses. In the 2021 Census, 46% of its 6,917 homes were flats or apartments and 13.4% were townhouses or semis. Only 40% were separate houses, against 72.2% across Fairfield City as a whole.
It's also a renters' suburb: 57.5% of Fairfield homes are rented. So a plumbing problem here often involves more than one person: a tenant who found the leak, an agent or landlord who approves the repair, and sometimes a strata manager or owners corporation responsible for the shared pipes.
Fairfield is postcode 2165 and sits in Fairfield City Council's Fairfield/Cabravale Ward. It's the furthest suburb on our list from Bossley Park, 9.1 km by road.

How It Works
The steps below are typical. An emergency call skips straight to getting a plumber on the road.
Phone 0425 008 874 any hour, or send the short form with a photo of the problem.
We diagnose the problem and give you an upfront price before any work begins. We charge by the job, not by the hour.
Drains are cleared, pipes repaired or the hot water system replaced, and we check it works before we leave.
For plumbing and drainage work, NSW rules require the plumber to give you a copy of the Certificate of Compliance.
Know The Rules
With more than half of Fairfield homes rented, the renters' rules matter here as much as the pipe rules. All three come from official NSW sources.
Sydney Water says the property owner is responsible for their connection to its wastewater system, and for clearing tree roots that enter the junction at the point of connection. Sydney Water owns the junction itself. If excavation at the point of connection is more than 2.5 metres deep, Sydney Water takes over the repair.
Sydney Water: responsibility for repairs (or call Sydney Water on 13 20 90).
NSW requires the right licence or certificate to do plumbing, draining or gasfitting work. When plumbing or drainage work is finished, the plumber completes a Certificate of Compliance and gives a copy to the person who arranged the work. In Sydney, work that needs an inspection is lodged with Building Commission NSW.
Under NSW tenancy law, a burst water service, a blocked or broken toilet, a gas leak and a breakdown of the hot water service are urgent repairs. Tell your landlord or agent straight away. If you can't reach them, you can have a licensed or qualified tradesperson do the urgent repair and be paid back up to $1,000 within 14 days of giving written notice with receipts.
