FAQs

What types of situations are considered a plumbing emergency in Newcomb?

Any issue that threatens to flood, contaminate or cut off critical water or gas supply is regarded as an emergency. Common examples include burst or leaking pipes, blocked or overflowing toilets or sewers, no hot-water or water at all, gas leaks, sudden drops in water pressure, and any fixture that is backing up into the home. Because these problems can cause property damage or pose health and safety risks, they warrant an immediate call-out.

How fast can your emergency plumbers get to my property in Newcomb?

We maintain fully stocked service vehicles in and around Newcomb 24/7. In most cases we arrive within 60 minutes of your call—often sooner during off-peak traffic times. When you ring our hotline, the dispatcher pinpoints the nearest licensed plumber and provides an estimated time of arrival that is continuously updated so you know exactly when help is on the way.

Are you available after hours, on weekends and public holidays?

Yes. Plumbing emergencies don’t keep business hours, so neither do we. Our phone line is answered around the clock, 365 days a year—including late nights, weekends, and public holidays such as Christmas Day or Easter. No matter when the emergency happens, you will speak directly with a local Newcomb operator who can dispatch a qualified plumber immediately.

How much does an emergency plumbing call-out cost and will I get a quote?

We charge a small, flat call-out fee that covers travel time and initial assessment. After inspecting the problem, the plumber will present you with a fixed-price quotation before any repair work begins. The quote includes labour, parts and GST so there are no hidden surprises. If you approve the quotation, we can usually start repairs straight away because our vans carry a comprehensive stock of common fittings and replacement parts.

Is there anything I should do before the emergency plumber arrives?

If it is safe, locate your main water shut-off valve (usually at the water meter outside) and turn it clockwise to stop further flooding. For hot-water or gas issues, turn off the gas isolation valve next to the appliance. Move valuables and electrical items away from leak areas and mop up excess water to reduce damage. Do not use chemical drain cleaners on blockages; they can make professional clearing more hazardous. Finally, keep children and pets clear of the affected area until the plumber arrives.

Can you deal directly with my insurer for water-damage claims?

Absolutely. We regularly work with major Australian insurance providers and can supply detailed invoices, photographs and a written report outlining the cause of the damage and the repair performed. With your permission, we can communicate directly with your insurer’s claims department to speed up approvals, reducing paperwork and stress for you.
