Reece answers direct, 24/7 for genuine emergencies.

Before you call โ€” do these first

๐Ÿ’ง Burst pipe or major leak

1. Turn off the water at the mains โ€” usually at the front of the property, street side. The isolation tap is typically in a green or blue box in the ground near the water meter.

2. Turn off power to affected areas if water is near electrical fittings. Flick the breaker at your switchboard.

3. Call Reece โ€” 0458 076 548.

โ›ฝ Gas leak

1. Turn off gas at the meter โ€” external, usually front of property.

2. DO NOT flick any electrical switches โ€” not lights, not fans, not the stove.

3. Open windows, leave the property.

4. Call from outside. If the smell is strong or you can't locate the shut-off, call 000 first, then us.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Hot water leaking

1. Turn off the isolator valve on the hot water unit (usually just above or beside it).

2. Turn off the electricity (if electric) or gas supply (if gas).

3. Call us โ€” we'll have it diagnosed on the phone and either repair or replace same day where possible.

What counts as an emergency

These we treat as same-day, drop-everything priority:

  • Burst pipes (inside the house or in the yard)
  • Major leaks causing water damage
  • No water to the property
  • No hot water with young kids or elderly in the home
  • Raw sewage backing up into the house
  • Suspected gas leaks
  • Toilet overflowing uncontrollably

What's not emergency (we'll come next business day)

  • Dripping tap
  • Slow-draining sink
  • Running toilet
  • Low water pressure (no flooding)

What after-hours costs

After-hours emergency call-out: $220 (6pmโ€“7am weekdays, all weekend). We quote the full repair cost before starting any work so there are no surprises on the invoice.
