We send the nearest qualified emergency plumbers based on hazard level, isolation status and access. This cuts travel time and gets trades on site faster.
How we triage your emergency call
On the phone we ask where the issue is visible and whether water or gas can be isolated. This helps us decide if leak detection or CCTV is needed on arrival.
| Response element | What we do | Typical outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Initial triage | Risk assessment, isolation steps, dispatch | Fast stabilisation |
| On-site tools | Hydro clearing, CCTV, leak detection | Accurate diagnosis, less disruption |
| Repair approach | Spot repair or replace with quality parts | Durable fix, clear next steps |
We carry common parts to speed repairs and reduce downtime. For gas concerns we prioritise isolation and testing to keep everyone safe.
Call 1800 571 216 to reach our triage team for immediate guidance and dispatch.
