FixMove coordinates plumbing support across Singapore for toilet chokes, leaks, taps, sinks, water heaters and pipe repair. Simple flexible-hose or angle-valve swaps start from S$50 per point. A S$10 fuel surcharge applies per visit, with no standard call-out or inspection fee. Optional urgent or customer-requested timing adds a separate S$30 priority fee, and basic choke clearing starts from S$80. For regulated water service or sanitary plumbing, an assigned PUB Licensed Plumber is arranged where required.

What FixMove does

FixMove (registered ALL-IN-ONE FIX & MOVE, UEN 53505530K) comes to you anywhere in Singapore — your HDB flat, condo, office or shop. There is no counter to visit. One number covers eight kinds of work: aircon, plumbing, electrical, handyman, installation, moving, renovation and full-house customisation. We are open 24 hours, Monday to Sunday, and where the work is regulated we arrange the appropriately licensed person.

No standard call-out or inspection fee applies. Every visit carries a S$10 fuel surcharge. Urgent service or a customer-requested appointment time adds one S$30 priority fee, subject to confirmation; it is separate from the work quotation. Fault-tracing labour is quoted before it begins and credited in full toward the related work when the customer proceeds. Known-scope mounting, installation, named-part replacement or measurement carries no diagnosis fee. Only the hour changes the rate: 9am–9pm normal, 9pm–midnight and 6–9am +30%, midnight–6am +50%. Weekends and public holidays cost the same as weekdays. S$10 fuel per visit; materials billed separately. Asking a question books nothing.

Plumbing Services We Handle Daily

From urgent toilet choke cases to recurring leak problems, we provide practical plumber support across Singapore. We diagnose first, explain the root cause, then confirm scope and pricing before proceeding.

Bathroom and Toilet Works

  • Toilet choke clearing and bathroom floor trap choke removal
  • Weak flush, running water and cistern mechanism repair
  • Toilet bowl, flush valve and fill valve replacement
  • Bidet spray, angle valve and flexible hose replacement
  • Bathroom repair contractor routing for mixed leak, tile, waterproofing or vanity issues

Kitchen, Pipes and Heater Works

  • Kitchen sink choke clearing and under-sink leak rectification
  • P-trap and bottle trap replacement, sink strainer and pop-up waste replacement
  • Leaking tap, exposed pipe, valve and joint repair/replacement
  • Instant/storage water heater installation and replacement

When leaks keep coming back at different joints in an older flat, patching each one separately usually costs more over time than a planned whole-house repiping job, and we say so before quoting another spot repair.

For urgent leak or overflow cases

Turn off the nearest safe valve or mains supply first, then use our emergency plumber for an active leak or overflow route. Send the address, postal code, photos and valve status; we confirm the next available urgent slot after checking queue, distance, access and job risk.

Why Customers Book FixMove

Most customers want two things: faster response and transparent scope. Our workflow is built exactly around those priorities.

Diagnosis Before Repair

No vague line items. We explain what is failing, what needs replacement, and what can be retained.

How Quoting Works

Labor and transport are stated first. Parts/materials are listed separately when required.

Islandwide Coverage

We handle HDB, condo and landed jobs across Singapore with practical scheduling windows.

Root-cause Checks

Recurring smell or slow flow often needs more than cleaning. We check traps, slope and nearby pipe flow.

Functional Testing

After repair, we run flow/flush checks to verify performance before handover.

WhatsApp-first Booking

Photo/video triage helps us quote faster and reduce back-and-forth before confirmation.

Choke, Leak or Heater? A Quick Decision Guide Before You Book a Plumber in Singapore

Most plumbing calls in Singapore fall into three buckets, and naming yours correctly helps the plumber bring the right parts on the first trip (fewer return visits, lower cost). Use these tells:

  • Choke / blockage — water backs up, drains slowly, gurgles, or a smell rises from the floor trap. Common in HDB and condo bathrooms and kitchen sinks. Usually cleared with a manual auger or hand snake; a stubborn main-stack choke may need a powered drain machine.
  • Leak — active dripping, damp patches on the ceiling or wall, a water meter that creeps when all taps are off, or a sudden spike in your PUB bill. Concealed pipe leaks behind tiles are the trickiest and overlap with waterproofing. See our water leak repair Singapore guide for tracing methods.
  • Water heater fault — no hot water, tripping the isolator/RCCB, rust-coloured water, or dripping from the tank. Storage tanks (common in landed and older condos) and instant heaters (popular in HDB) fail differently; tell us which you have.

If you are unsure, send a short video plus your full address on WhatsApp — visible water flow tells us far more than a description.

Do You Need a PUB Licensed Plumber in Singapore?

PUB requires regulated water service and sanitary plumbing work to be carried out by a Licensed Plumber. FixMove confirms the actual job classification and arranges an assigned PUB Licensed Plumber where required; customers may request the assigned plumber's licence details before work begins. See PUB's official plumbing-work requirements.

PUB also identifies simple plumbing work that may be carried out within a handyman's allowed scope. A like-for-like fitting, hose or trap replacement may fall within that simple-work category, but the classification depends on the work actually required. For HDB flats, floor-slab or waterproofing work may also need an HDB-registered renovation contractor and permit; in condos and ECs, the MCST may require notice or contractor insurance.

For a plain-English breakdown of which jobs sit inside PUB's regulated scope, who files the submission and how to verify the assigned plumber, see the PUB Licensed Plumber and submission guide.

Emergency vs Scheduled: Which Should You Pick?

Request urgent triage when water is actively flooding, you have no water at all, a burst pipe is soaking a unit below, or sewage is backing up — these worsen by the hour and risk a neighbour dispute or PUB high-consumption charge. After-hours call-outs carry a time surcharge; weekends and public holidays are charged at normal rates. Choose a scheduled slot (cheaper, more part options) for slow drips, a noisy cistern, a heater replacement, or anything you can isolate by turning off a stopcock for now.

Floor Trap Choke Price in Singapore

S$80-S$140 is the planning range for straightforward bathroom floor-trap choke clearing when trap access is open and manual clearing is sufficient. Powered-machine work, a main-stack blockage, trap replacement or resealing, tile access, and multiple affected points are quoted separately after diagnosis.

For a tighter quote, send the property type, postcode/block/unit, which floor trap is affected, whether it is slow/backing up/gurgling/smelling, recurrence history, other affected fixtures, whether water is still draining, access constraints, and a photo or short video. Compare broader job ranges in the Singapore plumber cost guide.

Plumber near me in Singapore: how the nearest available slot is decided

FixMove coordinates plumbing across the whole island rather than from a single shopfront, so “nearest” is not a matter of distance alone. Three things decide which slot you are offered: your postal code and building access, the current job load in that sector, and which trade the fault legally requires.

For office, shop or strata work with access windows, management permits or several fixtures, use the commercial plumber route so the quote includes site coordination, documentation and after-hours planning.

That last point is the one most enquiries miss. Regulated water-service and sanitary plumbing works are handled by a PUB Licensed Plumber where required, while simple works such as tap replacement, P-trap work or a toilet choke may be handled by trained handymen within PUB’s allowed scope. A choke at 9pm and a leaking water-service pipe at 9pm are therefore not the same booking, even at the same address.

  • Send your postal code, block and level — lift access and floor count change the arrival window as much as distance does.
  • Photograph the fault and the isolation point (stop-cock, angle valve or mains) so the office can tell you what to shut off while you wait.
  • Say whether water is still running. Active water loss is triaged ahead of slow drainage or a dripping tap.
  • Name the fixture, not the symptom where you can: floor trap, WC, basin trap, kitchen sink, instant heater or storage heater.

On arrival the sequence is diagnosis first, then a written scope and price before any work starts. No standard call-out or inspection fee applies; every visit carries the S$10 fuel surcharge. Optional urgent or customer-requested timing adds a separate S$30 priority fee. Time-of-day percentages apply only to labour outside 09:00-21:00, while weekends and public holidays carry no additional surcharge. If you want to compare job-by-job figures before booking, use the plumber price list; for heater work specifically, the water heater installation cost in Singapore guide separates the unit from the labour.

Figures on this page are indicative planning references for the stated scope, not automatic offers; the written quote confirms the final scope and price. A separate S$10 fuel surcharge applies per visit. Pricing terms.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much to clear a toilet choke?
Basic choke clearing usually starts from S$80. Final pricing depends on blockage severity, access condition and whether replacement parts are needed.
How much does it cost to clear a floor trap choke in Singapore?
Straightforward bathroom floor-trap choke clearing is typically S$80-S$140 when trap access is open and manual clearing is sufficient. Powered-machine work, a main-stack blockage, trap replacement or resealing, tile access, and multiple affected points are quoted separately after diagnosis.
Can you fix recurring drain smell and slow drainage?
Yes. We check floor trap seal, blockage level and nearby flow condition. Recurring odor usually requires both cleaning and root-cause correction.
Do you install and replace water heaters?
Yes. We handle instant and storage heater replacement, and we check nearby hose/valve/leak points onsite.
Are parts included in S$120+ pricing?
S$120+ usually covers labor and transport for common repairs. Parts/materials are listed separately when required so pricing stays transparent.
Do you serve HDB, condo and landed homes?
Yes. We provide islandwide plumbing coverage across residential property types in Singapore.
Can I get a quote through WhatsApp first?
Yes. Send photo/video plus full address and issue summary. This helps us estimate faster and prepare suitable parts.
What payment methods do you accept?
PayNow, bank transfer and cash are accepted after job completion.
Do I legally need a PUB Licensed Plumber for plumbing work in Singapore?
Regulated water service and sanitary plumbing work must be carried out by a PUB Licensed Plumber. PUB also identifies simple plumbing work that may be handled within a handyman's allowed scope. FixMove confirms the classification and arranges the assigned Licensed Plumber where required.
How fast can a plumber come for an emergency in Singapore?
For active flooding, a burst pipe, no water or sewage backup, send the address, valve status and photos for urgent-slot triage. Availability and any after-hours surcharge are confirmed before booking. Turn off the main stopcock or affected heater isolator when safe to limit damage.
Why does my PUB water bill keep rising with no obvious leak?
With all taps and appliances off, check whether the water meter still moves. A running cistern, concealed pipe leak or faulty valve may be responsible, but diagnosis is needed before repair is priced.
Can the same plumber fix HDB, condo and landed properties?
Yes. FixMove coordinates work for HDB, condo and landed homes. Access, MCST notice, insurance or permit requirements depend on property type and job scope, so share those details before booking.
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
A leaking tank, corrosion, repeated electrical trips or an uneconomical major fault may favour replacement; a minor valve or control fault may be repairable. The unit model, age, symptoms and photos are reviewed before any recommendation.

Booking, visit and pricing questions

These rules apply to the visit unless a written quotation states a more specific job scope.

Do you charge for the visit?

No call-out labour fee applies to route-and-schedule visits. A S$10 fuel surcharge still applies per visit. If you want to pick your own arrival time, a S$30 priority visit is available and is not deductible from the work quotation.

Is there a diagnosis fee?

Only when the fault has to be traced. For known-scope work - mounting, installing, assembling, replacing a named part, or an on-site measurement - there is no diagnosis fee or call-out labour fee; the S$10 fuel surcharge still applies. Where fault-finding is needed, diagnostic labour is quoted separately before it begins and is credited in full toward the related work when the customer proceeds.

Do you charge more at night?

The hour you start is the only scheduling factor that changes the price, and it applies to the labour quote: 00:00-06:00 +50%, 06:00-09:00 +30%, 09:00-21:00 normal rates, 21:00-24:00 +30%. There is no flat night call-out fee. The out-of-hours surcharge is overtime and is not credited against the job.

Do you charge more on weekends or public holidays?

No. Weekends and public holidays are charged at normal rates - a Saturday afternoon costs the same as a Wednesday afternoon. Only the hour of the visit changes the price.

Are materials included in the price?

No. Materials are billed separately in addition to the job price, and no time-of-day surcharge is applied to them. The job price itself is confirmed on site before any work starts.
