Emergency Plumbing FAQs

What should I do while I wait for the plumber?
 
Turn the water off at the meter, usually near the front boundary. For a hot water leak, also turn off the power or gas to the heater. Keep people and pets away from any sewage, and move valuables away from the water.
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
 
A burst or leaking pipe you can't stop, sewage coming up inside or in the yard, water coming through a ceiling, a gas smell, or no hot water at all. If you smell gas, leave the area and call the gas emergency line first.
Do you take after-hours calls?
 
Yes. Our office hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 4:30pm, and we also take after-hours calls on 0414 720 602. Tell us what is happening and we will tell you how soon we can be there.
Do you fix the cause, not just the symptom?
 
Yes. We stop the damage first, then repair the burst pipe, blocked drain or failed hot water system properly so it doesn't happen again.
