What changes the price

  • What caused the flood: a choke, a hose, a heater or a pipe.
  • Whether parts are needed, such as a hose, valve or heater part.
  • Whether the fix is work that must be done by a PUB Licensed Plumber, such as replacing a storage heater or a water pipe.
  • Access, such as a heater above a false ceiling or a hose behind a vanity cabinet.
  • Time of day. Floods often happen at night, and late-night and public-holiday visits cost more.

HDB vs condo vs landed

HDB

Usually a floor trap choke or a burst hose, at the lower end. If the common stack is backing up, that is the town council's job.

Condo

Similar causes to HDB. If water reaches the unit below or the common corridor, inform management. Late-night visits may need security clearance.

Landed

Upstairs bathroom floods can damage your own ceilings below. If several bathrooms back up at once, the choke may be in the underground pipe, which costs more to clear.

Bathroom flood price: common questions

Why does a bathroom flood cost more at night?

The repair is the same, but most plumbers add an after-hours surcharge for evenings, late nights and public holidays, often about $40–150 or a percentage of the job. If the water is stopped and the bathroom can wait, a daytime visit costs less.

Does the plumber clean up the water?

Plumbers fix the cause and do basic clean-up of the work area. Drying out the home and repairing swollen doors, cabinets or flooring is separate and not plumbing work.

What should I send to get an accurate quote?

Say where the water is coming from if you know, and whether you have stopped it. A short video of the floor trap, the area under the basin and the water heater is usually enough for a price range.
