Richard has been our plumber for about 6 years. He's been reliable, honest and done great work with every job at a competitive price. I've not bothered to seek multiple quotes from different plumbers since Richard helped install our kitchen those years ago.
James Rallings
Richard replaced a broken sink for us. When the original supplier said it would take a few months to source, Richard was able to obtain one just a few days. He was always very responsive, friendly and a great price. I would absolutely recommend
Len Hughes
Richard turned up on time and had all the tools and parts to complete the job. The work was done efficiently, and everything was left tidy. Would highly recommend Richard Knight Plumbing and will definitely use them again. Thanks

Richard was great. Quick and efficient. Very helpful, and fairly priced and was able to fit me in at short notice and did a great job. I'd gladly get Richard to do any future jobs I might need.

Do you work in Sydenham?
Yes. We look after homes, warehouses, and workshops throughout Sydenham, Monday to Friday from 7 am to 5 pm. We are based in nearby Newtown, and same-day service is often available on weekdays. Call us to check availability and book a time that suits you or your business.
Sydenham is low-lying. Does property drainage really help?
Yes. The Sydenham Pit helps manage flooding across the area, but water still needs to leave your own block. Blocked grates, broken downpipes, and cracked lines can leave water sitting near buildings. We check how water moves around your property and complete practical repairs. Find out more about our
drainage service.
Can you maintain the toilets and basins in our workshop?
Yes. We can check and repair toilets, basins, taps, and hoses across your workshop, and point out worn parts before they fail during a busy day. Planning maintenance ahead means repairs can be booked at a time that suits your team, instead of being fixed in a rush.
Our workshop roof leaks in heavy storms. Can you help?
Yes. Workshop roof leaks often come from blocked box gutter outlets, worn gutter linings, or downpipes that cannot keep up in a downpour. We find where the water is getting in, explain what is causing it, and complete practical repairs to help protect your building, equipment, and stock.
Can you install gas for workshop heaters or equipment?
Yes. Before adding a heater or new equipment, we check whether your existing gas supply can handle the extra load or needs to be upgraded. We then explain the work involved, install the connections, and test everything so the equipment runs safely during the working day.
Can you install hot water for our staff amenities?
Yes. Workshops and warehouses need hot water that suits how the space is used, whether for a bathroom, staff kitchen, or wash area. We look at demand, space, and system condition, then recommend a practical solution and complete the installation with care, with an obligation-free quote first.
The drains in my workers' cottage keep blocking. Why?
Many workers' cottages still have original clay sewer pipes, which can crack, shift, or let roots in at the joints over time. Clearing the blockage restores flow, but it may return if the damaged section stays in place. We find the likely cause and explain your options for a longer-term repair.
Can you connect a commercial dishwasher?
Yes. Commercial dishwashers usually need a suitable water supply, a waste connection that can handle the discharge, and room for service access. We check these first, install the machine, and test it for leaks before you start using it.
Contact us to arrange an obligation-free quote.
Do you work in suburbs near Sydenham?
Yes. Along with Sydenham, we work in nearby suburbs including
Dulwich Hill and
Enmore, plus Marrickville, St Peters, 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 should we do if a pipe bursts at our workshop?
Turn off the water at the meter straight away, and switch off power to any wet areas if it is safe to do so. Move stock and equipment away from the water where possible. Then call us during business hours, Monday to Friday, 7 am to 5 pm, and we will help restore essential services quickly.
