Phillip was friendly
Phillip and Sean came and relined some 100 year old terracotta pipes. They arrived right on time and finished earlier than they forecast. In addition to completing the work in a timely and efficient manner they had to juggle with parking here as there’s a construction site next door. They completed all tasks including cleaning up so that it looks like they have not been here ( although I have seen the photos of the relined pipe!) Many thanks. Andrew Butler
5 stars for Grant and Network! Professional, punctual, and did a great job installing our new hot water system. He explained everything clearly, left the area spotless and made sure everything was working properly before he left. He even helped remove a drain cover which was stuck that wasn't part of the job. Excellent service and highly recommended! Thank you Grant and Network!
I’ve been using the team from Network for several years now. My go-to One Stop Shop for all my electrical and plumbing needs. Today’s job was relatively minor but Tom was - as always - on time, friendly & courteous, skilled and efficient. He got the job done and even added on the installation of a smoke alarm I’d been putting off for months. All for a more than reasonable price. Would definitely recommend.
Tristan was great. Very friendly and very prompt in fixing our aircon system. Highly recommend thanks
Phillip Shaun and Tom Drain work efficiently completed. Surrounding area cleaned up properly. All staff over the two days very polite and hardworking.
Very happy with work done by Spencer. Thorough, knowledgeable and thoughtful. Highly recommend.
On time and very efficient service from Sandro. Who took time to explain what he was doing and reported any problems, if any, on his safety check. We now feel more comfortable with our gas heater. We will be using this company again.
Thank you Spencer and Ethan for a fantastic job in identifying the major problem with my kitchen drain. This is now a permanent fix and no more drainage problems in future.
Phillip and Matty did a great job repairing a burst water pipe earlier this morning. Appreciate the efficient and high quality work.

Thanks to both the boys and the entire team for a seamless job from my initial call to having the job completed. Definitely would recommend.
Ollie and Joey did an amazing job for us - quick efficient and left the place spotless! Thanks boys
My family home had some drainage issues where some weird gurgling sounds would threaten to bubble out through the drain when we flushed a toilet, took a shower or used the sink in the bathroom. We thought it was a blockage and bought a plunger to dislodge whatever was blocking the drain. Didn't work, google lied to us. One night, when my sister took a shower the drain decided to surprise the family with an indoor swimming pool where the water pooled out from the laundry and bathroom drains filling up both floors and out to our hallway, yay! Since it's closer to winter and not ideal conditions for swimming, we had to return this surprise gift and mopped up the water. We called Network Plumbing, Terry Hills because of their good reviews and they sent 4 of their best: Joey, Shaun, Luke and Jordan. They stuck a camera through the pipes, took pictures and diagnosed the problem with ease. Turns out the tree outfront was thirsty and wanted to steal some water from us by puncturing 2 of our pipes. The 4 did a brilliant repair job, and were quick and efficient with great senses of humour. They do a final inspection this coming Monday, but for now there is no more gurgling and everything is working as they should! Huge thanks to Joey, Shaun, Luke and Jordan!
Brad was lovely in his manner, and kept us informed of what was needed to be done/fixed along with pricing before starting the work. A very comfortable person to have in our house and the job was completed the same day. Will definitely call this business again and recommend the services
Tristan was very help. He cleaned an serviced my air conditioners very thoroughly. He is friendly, kind and professional.
Job done by Phillip,Monty and Daniel was done very quickly and professionally. Very happy.
Kieran and Aidan were very efficient and tidy workers, Kieran even took his work boots off before entering the bedroom ensuite. They double checked everything before they left and we were very happy with the switchboard upgrade.
Shaun and Phillip arrived right on time. Worked in the rain over several hours to repair my damaged sewer pipes. 2 very nice fellows, polite and friendly. Phillip kept me updated with what they were doing throughout the morning. I am always impressed by the work and reliability of the staff of Network Plumbing who I have been using for many years. Phillip and Shaun were a pleasure to deal with and assured me that I would have no further problems with my pipes.
Nathan was excellent. All plumbing work carried out was first class.Nathan explained our options clearly and was not pushy in any way. I will be using them again in future.
You only know your heating plumber is good when it all goes to custard. Every time I have had to call for emergency support, I am greeted courteously, fast and get a visit the next day. That is a level of reliability you want . Thank you
Cameron and Taison are the best would recommend any time.
Big thank you to Tom who came over to put some new wall lights up. He was efficient, fast and super friendly. I love network plumbing and electrical and use them for all my jobs. And will tomorrow too! Thanks team

Cameron was a life saver. Fixed my kitchen underbench leak in the old heritage house

I had the pleasure of meeting Tristan today. His service was above and beyond. A true asset to your company. I had alot of questions to ask, as this is the first time I have an air conditioner, Tristan was professional and very patient in answering all my questions and beyond. I was very well educated with the system. This has given me comfort and confidence on maintaining the system moving forward. Great job Tristan 😃

We recently had Aidan and Kieran complete some electrical work at our home. They arrived on time, consulted us about the work, worked efficiently, and cleaned up well when the jobs were done.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have more burning questions about leaking taps, a blocked toilet or your plumbing system? Here are some plumbing solutions.
The most efficient traditional electric hot water systems are well-insulated storage tanks paired with off-peak or controlled load tariffs. For maximum efficiency overall, heat pump systems outperform standard electric tanks, but within purely electric systems, correct sizing and modern insulation make the biggest difference.
Efficiency isn’t just about the unit, it’s about matching the system to your household’s usage.
Using electricity on off-peak or controlled load tariffs is often the cheapest way to heat water with a standard electric system. These systems heat water overnight when electricity rates are lower and store it for use during the day.
The key is ensuring the tank is correctly sized so you don’t run out of hot water before it reheats.
Yes – electric instant (tankless) hot water systems are available. They heat water on demand rather than storing it in a tank.
However, they require significant electrical capacity and are often better suited to single outlets or smaller households. A professional assessment is essential to determine whether your home’s electrical supply can support one.
For two people, many Sydney homes are well suited to a 125–160 litre electric storage system, depending on shower habits and peak usage times.
Oversizing wastes energy, while undersizing leads to running out of hot water. Correct sizing ensures comfort and efficiency.
Hot water is one of the biggest contributors to household electricity use. Electric systems can use significant power, especially if they’re older, poorly insulated, or incorrectly sized.
Modern systems with proper insulation, efficient elements, and off-peak operation help manage energy use more effectively.
Tankless (instant) systems can be effective in the right setting, but plumbers often caution that they’re not suitable for every home. Electrical capacity, usage patterns, and installation costs all need to be considered.
For many households, a correctly sized storage system offers more consistent performance with fewer electrical upgrades.
Heating water is consistently one of the largest contributors to electricity bills, alongside heating, cooling, and older appliances. Inefficient hot water systems can quietly drive up costs over time.
Most electric hot water systems last 10–15 years, depending on water quality, usage, and maintenance. Regular servicing and correct installation can help extend lifespan and maintain efficiency.
