Not sure whether your situation requires an emergency call-out? As a general rule, if your plumbing problem is causing damage to your property, poses a health or safety risk, or has left your household without an essential service - it's an emergency. Common Gold Coast plumbing emergencies include:
Burst or leaking pipes - Any pipe that's actively leaking or has burst should be treated as urgent. Shut off your water supply at the mains and call us immediately.
Blocked toilets - Particularly urgent if it's your only toilet, or if you have young children or elderly residents. A severely blocked toilet can cause sewage backflow.
No hot water - Especially in winter, or in households with babies or young children. We handle hot water emergency repairs and same-day system replacements.
Gas leaks - A gas leak is a highest-priority emergency. Leave the property immediately, do not use any light switches or appliances, and call us and your gas supplier straight away.
Sewer overflow or sewage backflow - A blocked sewer causing overflow is both a health hazard and a property damage risk. This requires immediate attention.
Storm-related drainage failure - Heavy Gold Coast storms can overwhelm drainage systems quickly. If water is entering your home due to a drainage failure, call us.
We know that plumbing emergencies are stressful. While our plumber is on the way, follow these five steps to minimise damage and keep your household safe:
If there is any risk of electrical hazards from flooding, structural instability, or a gas leak, get everyone out of the affected area immediately. Your safety comes before the property.
If you have a burst pipe or major leak, locate your main water shut-off valve and turn it off. For gas leaks, locate the gas meter and turn the supply off at the isolation valve. Knowing where these are before an emergency occurs can save you thousands.
Take a moment to identify what's affected - which pipes, fixtures or areas of your home are involved. This helps our plumber arrive prepared with the right parts and equipment.
Call Peter on 0433 087 906. Our team prioritises emergency jobs based on the category of damage or risk, and we'll give you an accurate arrival time. We're available 7 days a week and aim to be with you within the hour.
Take photos and videos of the affected areas before any clean-up begins. This documentation will be valuable if you need to make an insurance claim.
