Ranges are based on public price lists and quotes in Singapore. They are a guide, not an offer.

What changes the price

  • Length of the pipe or drain run between the problem and the nearest access point.
  • Whether the line is buried under a driveway, garden or slab, which may need digging or hacking.
  • Tree roots or heavy fat build-up that need jetting rather than a drain rod.
  • Leak detection needed to find a hidden leak before the repair can be quoted.
  • Number of bathrooms, heaters or fittings involved.
  • Time of day. Evening, late-night and public-holiday visits carry a surcharge.

What is included

Usually included

  • Transport to your house
  • Labour for the agreed job
  • Standard materials such as tape, sealant and connectors
  • Testing every affected fitting or chamber

Usually extra

  • Digging, hacking and reinstating driveways, gardens or tiles, unless quoted
  • Leak detection, where it is quoted separately from the repair
  • Replacement pumps or tanks
  • Problems in the public sewer or on PUB's side of the meter

HDB vs condo vs landed

HDB

HDB jobs usually cost less. Pipe runs are short and the town council handles the common stack.

Condo

Condo units are closer to HDB pricing. Access and lift bookings add time, rather than pipe length.

Landed

These ranges are for landed homes. Long runs, underground lines and several bathrooms put many jobs at the upper end, and digging or jetting can take a job well past it.

Landed house plumber price: common questions

Why is leak detection more expensive for a landed house?

There is more pipe to check, much of it underground or under slabs, and the leak can be anywhere between the meter at the gate and the furthest fitting. Expect it to start from about $250, with the repair quoted separately once the leak is found.

Is jetting worth paying for on a slow outdoor drain?

If roots, fat or sand are building up in the underground line, a drain rod only punches a hole and the choke comes back. Jetting cleans the pipe wall and usually lasts longer. For repeat chokes, ask about a camera inspection to see what is inside the pipe.
