Which faults can't wait until morning?

Some jobs cost a wet weekend if they sit overnight, and some are dangerous the moment they start. These are the ones we treat as right-now work:

  • Burst pipes and ruptured flexi hoses, with water running through the house.
  • A gas smell, which is a get-everyone-outside job first and a gas leak repair job second.
  • A sewer backing up into showers or floor gullies, cleared under the process on the blocked sewer page.
  • No hot water where someone's health depends on it, booked as an urgent hot water repair.
  • Stormwater surging through the yard toward the house, which the stormwater drains team handles.

A slow drip or a damp patch with no story behind it is different. That sits with water leak detection, booked for a daytime visit.

A pipe has burst. What now?

What you do before the plumber gets there decides how much of the house you save:

  1. 1

    Close the tap on the water meter at the front boundary, or the isolation valve nearest the burst if you know where it sits.

  2. 2

    If water is reaching power points, kill the power at the board, but only from dry ground.

  3. 3

    Get anything that matters up off the floor and put towels down.

  4. 4

    Ring (02) 4063 3469. We are Available 24/7, and whoever picks up can walk you through finding the meter or the valve.

One thing not to do: don't start pulling up floorboards or cutting into walls to chase the water. The plumber's locator and pressure test find the source without guesswork, and a wall opened in a panic is a second repair.

From the first ring to the final check

Every emergency call runs the same four steps, whatever the hour.

  1. 01

    Ring or send the form

    Call (02) 4063 3469 or use the form to explain the fault. We ask enough to bring the right equipment the first time.

  2. 02

    A fixed price first

    A plumber inspects the job and names a fixed figure up front. Nothing gets started until you give the go-ahead.

  3. 03

    Stop the water, then make it safe

    The plumber isolates the leak, shuts down the water and secures the fault, then walks you through the fix before any further work happens.

  4. 04

    Covered for a year

    Every job carries our 365-day warranty on all work. If something we did isn't right, ring the same number.

What drives the price of an after-hours call?

"Had a water heater problem. Rang them at 730 at night. Came out when they said. Quick diagnostic check. Fixed the problem." Tim

An emergency job is priced on the night, and four things move it:

  • The clock: a 2am or Sunday job is after-hours work, and that loading sits inside the quote you approve.
  • The part: a common fitting can be swapped there and then, while an unusual one may mean making it safe tonight and finishing later.
  • The cover over the pipe: a break in the open is quicker to reach than one under floorboards or a slab path.
  • Whose pipe it is: a break in Hunter Water's main is Hunter Water's repair, so it never appears on our quote.

We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.

One estate, one birthday, long nights

Tanks that give out together

The commission-built closes off Quigley Road, finished between 1982 and 1987, had their hot water units fitted during that build, and one cold snap can finish several of them on the same street.

Hoses that let go quietly

Renovation-era braided hoses under the vanities of those same places rupture while nobody is home, and a flood gets hours of running time.

Old lines under hard cover

In the fibro and weatherboard waterfront cottages from the 1915 subdivision, supply pipe thinned by decades of corrosion can run beneath concrete paths, and a pressure spike splits it with little warning.

Salt on everything outside

With the lake on three sides, salty air works on outdoor valves and fittings all year, so an outside stop tap that seizes or weeps is no surprise.

When We're Not the Right Call

Water gushing from the street main, not your own pipes, is Hunter Water's emergency, and they send their own crew. Scorch marks or a burning smell at the power board need an electrician, not a plumber, whatever the hour.

Emergency Questions, Answered

Do you come out to Bolton Point on public holidays?

Yes. Available 24/7 includes public holidays. Holiday call-outs attract after-hours rates, and that number is agreed on the doorstep before the tools come out.

The hot water died overnight in a commission-era close. Is that an emergency?

It can be, especially where illness, young children or older residents make hot water a health matter rather than a comfort. Otherwise it books as an urgent repair, and if the unit is beyond saving, a temporary hot water tank can bridge the gap until the new one is in.

Water is pouring through the ceiling. Should I touch the power?

Only if you can reach the power board from dry ground; if not, leave it and keep everyone out of that room. Then close the tap at the water meter and ring us.

What if the burst pipe runs under a concrete path?

That is still an emergency job; it just changes how we reach the pipe. Reaching it through concrete adds time, and that time is priced into the figure you agree to before anyone starts digging.
