Marrickville drains handle everything from family homes to busy breweries, cafes, and warehouse conversions, so grease and heavy use are common culprits. Richard Knight Plumbing investigates blocked drains, sinks, and toilets, identifies the likely cause, and completes practical repairs to restore flow and limit odours and overflows. This assists cafes, homes, offices, and shops.
Parts of Marrickville sit in a low-lying valley that was once swampland, so good property drainage matters during heavy rain. Richard Knight Plumbing assesses downpipe connections, drainage lines, and surface water flow, then carries out practical repairs to help reduce leaks, pooling, and water damage. This helps keep homes, offices, and warehouses drier.
For Marrickville breweries, cafes, and workshops, a burst pipe or sudden loss of water can stop trading altogether. Richard Knight Plumbing responds during weekday hours to assess urgent plumbing problems, explain the required work, and complete practical repairs. We help restore essential services quickly and reduce damage and downtime for families and businesses.
Marrickville's breweries, cafes, and workshops often rely on gas for cooking, heating, and production. Richard Knight Plumbing assesses the existing setup, explains the required work clearly, and completes alterations, installations, and repairs with attention to safe daily operation. This suits commercial sites as well as home kitchen and heater upgrades.
A cafe kitchen, a family home, and a warehouse conversion each have very different hot water demands. Richard Knight Plumbing installs, repairs, and replaces hot water systems across Marrickville, explains the problem and your options clearly, and recommends a practical solution based on condition, space, and usage. This helps keep hot water flowing when it matters.
Commercial kitchens and home laundries in Marrickville all depend on appliances that are connected correctly. Richard Knight Plumbing installs commercial equipment, dishwashers, and washing machines, assessing drainage, fittings, waste connections, and water supply first. This suits new business fit-outs, kitchen renovations, replacements, and upgrades.
Catching plumbing problems early saves water and money, whether it is a busy cafe, a workshop, or a family home in Marrickville. Richard Knight Plumbing repairs leaking taps, running toilets, worn fittings, and worn hoses, and provides practical advice on what may need attention next. Regular maintenance helps reduce downtime and plan ahead.
Marrickville warehouses often have large roofs and box gutters, while family homes rely on ageing downpipes and guttering. Richard Knight Plumbing inspects roof drainage, identifies damaged components, leaks, and flow problems, then completes practical repairs. This helps protect ceilings, stock, and walls from overflows and stormwater damage.

Out of all the tradies I worked with building my first house the only one I kept when doing the second one was Richard. Just remember if you're outside his catchment area of the inner west it might be hard to get him because he's the plumber all the owners, landlords and managers want to get on their job because he's honest and does the job right the first time. All his work is repeat business, that tells you a lot.

Richard has done 2 jobs for me at my property. He is friendly, quick, honest and knowledgeable. His prices are very reasonable and I would not hesitate to use him again in future. If you live in the Inner West this is the plumber you should be using. You will not find a better one. Call him out today!

Do you look after both businesses and homes in Marrickville?
Yes. Marrickville has everything from family homes to breweries, cafes, and warehouse conversions, and we work across all of them. We are based in Newtown, a short trip away, and work Monday to Friday, 7 am to 5 pm. Same-day service is often available, so call us to check availability.
Parts of Marrickville flood. Can better drainage help?
Parts of Marrickville sit in a low-lying valley that was once swampland, so heavy rain can cause problems. Property drainage will not stop a flood, but it helps move everyday stormwater away from your building. We check downpipes, drainage lines, and surface water flow, then complete practical repairs.
Can you install gas for brewing or cooking equipment?
Yes. We provide gas alterations, installations, and repairs for businesses as well as homes, including connections for commercial equipment. We assess the existing setup, explain the required work clearly, and complete the job with attention to safe daily operation and minimal disruption to production.
The box gutters on our warehouse overflow. Can you fix them?
Yes. On a large warehouse roof, a box gutter can collect a lot of water fast, so a blocked outlet or undersized overflow quickly sends it inside. We inspect the gutter, outlets, and downpipes, find what is causing the overflow, and complete practical repairs. Learn more about our
roof plumbing service.
Our cafe drains keep blocking. What can we do?
Grease and food scraps are common causes of blocked drains in busy cafes. Scraping plates into the bin, using sink strainers, and keeping fats out of the sink all help. If blockages keep returning, we investigate the cause and complete practical repairs to restore flow and reduce downtime.
Can you install hot water in a warehouse conversion?
Yes. Warehouse conversions often have different layouts and demands from a typical home, so the hot water system needs to suit how the space is used. We look at condition, space, and usage, explain the available options, and complete the installation with care, with an obligation-free quote first.
Can you help with plumbing for a new business fit-out?
Yes. A fit-out is the best time to plan the plumbing for sinks, dishwashers, and other equipment, before benches and walls go in. We work through what you need, explain the work involved, and provide an obligation-free quote, so you can plan your fit-out with confidence.
Contact us to arrange a quote.
Can you work around our trading hours?
We work Monday to Friday, 7 am to 5 pm. Where possible, we talk through timing with you so the work fits around your busiest periods, and we aim to complete repairs with as little disruption as possible. Booking ahead for non-urgent work makes it easier to plan around your trading.
Do you work in suburbs near Marrickville?
Yes. Along with Marrickville, we work in nearby suburbs including
Hurlstone Park and
St Peters, plus Dulwich Hill, Enmore, Sydenham, and Tempe. You can see
all the suburbs we serve on our service area page, or call us for clear advice and an obligation-free quote on your plumbing job.
What if a pipe bursts after hours?
Turn off the water at your meter straight away, and switch off power to any wet areas if it is safe to do so. Our hours are Monday to Friday, 7 am to 5 pm, so call us first thing the next business day. We will assess the problem, explain the repair needed, and complete the work as soon as we can.
