Licensed local plumbers, on the Lower North Shore.
Blocked drains, hot water, leaks, gas and emergency repairs for Linley Point homes, businesses and strata — with a fixed price agreed before the work starts.
No callout fee on eligible jobs · Free quotes
One of Sydney’s smallest suburbs, with a 2021 population of 382. Several heritage properties survive, including the NSW-listed Linley House on View Street.
133 dwellings in total and 99.2% of them separate houses, with no apartments recorded at all. Redevelopment has been selective rather than wholesale.
A tiny peninsula almost surrounded by the Lane Cove River, so every property drains across sloping ground towards water that is never far away.
These jobs come up here more than they come up elsewhere. They follow from what Linley Point is built from, when it was built, and what it sits on.
The peninsula is reached by the Figtree Bridge from the south and Burns Bay Road from the north. Access planning matters more here than anywhere else in the group.
Much of Linley Point is bounded by the Lane Cove River, so every property drains across sloping ground with water close by.
Rebuilds sit next to heritage properties including the NSW-listed Linley House, so drainage age varies house by house on a very small number of blocks.
Most repeat blockages are a pipe problem, not a blockage problem. We look before we quote.
Every job below is handled by a licensed plumber, quoted before it starts, and covered by the lifetime labour warranty on eligible work.
Cleared properly, with a camera down the line to find out why it blocked.
Fix a cracked or root-damaged pipe without digging up the garden.
Burst pipes, sewage overflows and gas faults — 24 hours a day.
Repairs and replacements across electric, gas, solar and heat pump.
Find a hidden leak before anyone opens a wall or a slab.
Licensed gas work — appliances, new lines and suspected faults.
See what is actually in the pipe instead of guessing at it.
Isolate, repair and make good — usually the same day.
Get roof and surface water away from the house properly.
Describe what’s happening at your Linley Point property and we’ll tell you straight — including when the simple fix is the whole job.
What a job looks like here depends on what the suburb is built from and built on. Start with how people actually live in it:
Largely surrounded by the Lane Cove River, reached by the Figtree Bridge from the south and Burns Bay Road from the north, ten kilometres north-west of the CBD.
River frontage and established gardens on elevated blocks.
Linley Point sits in the Municipality of Lane Cove, postcode 2066. Work needing a compliance certificate is lodged the same way across the LGA.

Nobody likes ringing for a price and being told “it depends”. These are typical ranges across the Sydney market — not Voyager’s price list, but a realistic yardstick to judge any quote against, including ours.
| Drains and pipes | |
|---|---|
| Clearing a simple blockage | $150 – $400 |
| Clearing a blocked main sewer line | $300 – $600 |
| High-pressure jetting | $250 – $600 |
| Cutting tree roots from a line | $400 – $1,200 |
| CCTV drain inspection | $250 – $550 |
| Pipe relining, per lineal metre | $450 – $800 |
| Pipe relining, typical whole job | $4,000 – $10,000 |
| Excavate and replace, per metre | $300 – $600 |
| Repairs | |
| Leaking tap — washer or cartridge | $120 – $250 |
| Burst pipe, accessible | $250 – $500 |
| Burst pipe, underground | $800 – $2,500+ |
| Hot water, leaks and emergencies | |
| Hot water repair (element, thermostat, anode) | $150 – $550 |
| Hot water replaced, supplied and installed | $1,200 – $3,500 |
| Water leak detection | $250 – $600 |
| After-hours emergency attendance | $400 – $900 |
Hot water replacement above is supplied and installed — labour-only quotes look cheaper because they are not the same thing. And relining costs more per metre than digging, but that comparison ignores excavation, spoil removal and putting your driveway back, which is where dig jobs get expensive.
Voyager prices by the job, not by the hour, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
Linley Point is 99.2% freestanding houses, so the ownership question here is usually straightforward — and worth knowing, because it decides who pays.
You are responsible for the wastewater pipes between your property and the point of connection to the network. Sydney Water is responsible for the main that carries waste away from multiple properties. Most of the pipe that can actually fail on a block like yours is yours to maintain.
On a detached block the fault can be anywhere along a long private run, so locating it accurately is most of the job. A camera and a pipe locator turn a whole-yard excavation into a targeted repair.
Some problems wait for a booking. Burst pipes, sewage backing up, a hot water unit emptying itself into the floor and any suspected gas fault do not.
Voyager runs a 24/7 line for Linley Point and the rest of the Lower North Shore. When you call, say what’s happening, where it is, and whether water, sewage or gas is involved — that’s what decides how fast someone needs to be there.
Before we arrive: turn off the affected supply if it’s safe to do so, and move what you can away from the water. Don’t pour drain chemicals down a blocked line — it makes the pipe unsafe to inspect and rarely clears the blockage.
Two access points onto the whole peninsula and 133 dwellings behind them. We plan the approach before the day; on some blocks the river side is closer to the work than the street.
We assess access before quoting rather than discovering it on the day. On constrained sites it often decides which repair method is realistic, and that changes the price.
Storm season finds every drain that was never quite right. Better to know before it rains.
A short call is usually enough to tell whether it’s urgent, and what’s likely to be involved.
Where it matters, that means a camera down the line rather than a guess from the surface.
Priced by the job, not the hour. You approve it before anything starts.
You get told what caused it and whether anything else needs attention — including when the answer is nothing.
Voyager covers the whole Lower North Shore. These are the closest to Linley Point:
Voyager runs 24/7 for urgent work in Linley Point. How fast depends on where crews are at the time, but genuine emergencies — burst pipes, sewage overflows, suspected gas — are prioritised over booked jobs. Call 0485 028 787 and describe what’s happening.
133 dwellings and two ways in. The peninsula is reached by the Figtree Bridge from the south and Burns Bay Road from the north. Access planning matters more here than anywhere else in the group.
In Linley Point, where 99.2% of homes are freestanding, you are responsible for the wastewater pipes between your property and the point of connection. Sydney Water maintains the main. Because that point is not always inside your boundary, a Sewer Service Diagram is the reliable way to know where your pipework actually runs.
There’s no callout fee on eligible jobs, and quotes are free. You get a fixed price for the work before anything starts — priced by the job, not by the hour, so a job that takes longer than expected doesn’t cost you more.
Usually because the blockage was cleared but the cause wasn’t found. A tiny peninsula almost surrounded by the Lane Cove River, so every property drains across sloping ground towards water that is never far away. A camera inspection shows whether you’re dealing with a one-off or a damaged pipe that will keep catching.
Two access points onto the whole peninsula and 133 dwellings behind them. We plan the approach before the day; on some blocks the river side is closer to the work than the street. We work that out before quoting, because on constrained sites it decides which repair method is realistic.
Often not. With only two ways onto the peninsula and 133 dwellings on it, access planning matters more here than in any other suburb in the group. Relining repairs the pipe from the inside, which leaves driveways, paving and established gardens intact. Whether it suits your pipe depends on its condition — that’s what the camera inspection determines.
Across the Sydney market a simple blockage runs $150–$400, jetting a main line $250–$600, and pipe relining $450–$800 per lineal metre with most whole jobs landing between $4,000 and $10,000. Those are market ranges rather than Voyager’s price list. Access dominates on a peninsula with two ways in and very few properties. Getting equipment to the work is a real part of the cost here, and worth establishing before anything is quoted. Voyager prices by the job, not the hour, and the price is agreed before work starts.
