Is It an Emergency?

Call Us Straight Away If…

If water or gas is going somewhere it shouldn't, don't wait. Here's what we treat as a genuine emergency, and what to do while we're on the way.

Burst pipe or flooding

Turn off the water at the meter and call. We stop the leak, repair the pipe and help you limit the damage.

Sewer overflowing

Stop using water inside and call. We clear the blockage and clean up the overflow area.

Smell of gas

Turn the meter off, open windows, no flames or switches. Our licensed gas fitters find and fix the leak.

No water at all

Could be a burst main, a failed valve or a frozen or blocked line. We diagnose and restore supply fast.

Leak through a ceiling

Water pooling above means a burst pipe or failed fitting. We isolate it, open up only what's needed and repair it.

No hot water in winter

Not life-threatening, but we still treat it as urgent, same-day repair or replacement in most cases.

What to Do Right Now

Four Things While We're On the Way

A couple of minutes now can save thousands in damage. Do these, then leave the rest to us.

Turn off the water

The main isolation tap is usually near the meter at the front boundary or where the pipe enters the house. Turn it clockwise.

Switch off electricity nearby

If water is near power points or lights, switch off that circuit at the switchboard before you do anything else.

Move what you can

Lift rugs, move furniture and electronics away from the water. Towels and buckets buy time.

Gas: meter off, get out

Turn the gas off at the meter, open doors and windows, don't operate switches, and wait outside for us.

Not sure if it can wait till morning? Call anyway, we'll tell you honestly.

Questions

Good to Know Before You Call

Do you really answer 24/7?

Yes, a real person, not a voicemail, any hour of any day including public holidays. Emergency jobs are dispatched immediately.

Is there an after-hours call-out fee?

No. We don't charge a call-out fee at any hour. You pay the fixed price we agree before work starts, and that price is the same whether it's 2pm or 2am.

How quickly can you get here?

For genuine emergencies we aim to be at your door within 45 minutes* across our service area. We'll give you a realistic arrival time when you call. *Subject to availability.

What should I do while I wait?

Turn off the water at the mains, switch off power to any wet areas, move valuables clear of the water. For gas, turn the meter off and wait outside. We'll talk you through it on the phone.

I'm renting, can you come out?

We'll need your landlord or property manager to authorise the job. Call them first, or give us their number and we'll do it for you, for a genuine emergency we'll get moving straight away.

Can you do the permanent repair, or just stop the leak?

Both. We isolate and stop the damage first, then repair it properly on the same visit in almost every case, our vans carry the parts.
