What Counts as a 2am Job?
Water you cannot stop, gas you can smell, and a sewer or stormwater line pushing waste where it should not go. None of those should wait for business hours.

Hot water gone cold
Storm overflow
Stopping the Water Until We Arrive
- 01
Shut the water off
Your main shut-off is at the meter by the front boundary or beside the cylinder. Close it clockwise, all the way.
- 02
Make the power safe
Water near outlets or appliances means turning that circuit off at the switchboard, standing on dry ground.
- 03
Move what the water is soaking
Rugs, boxes and anything on a low shelf. Carpet and plasterboard dry out far better when they have not sat in water.
- 04
Ring us with the details
Tell us where the water is getting in and what you have already shut off. That information decides what the plumber brings.
From Ring to Made Safe
- 01
Ring or send the form
Call (02) 4915 2998 or use the form to explain the fault. We ask enough to bring the right equipment the first time.
- 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.
- 03
Isolate, stop, make safe
Water shut off, power isolated where needed, the burst section cut out or capped, and the line pressure-tested before we close up.
- 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 Sets the Price at Midnight?
"I commend them for their very fast and efficient service when we had a burst pipe." Joan
Four things drive an after-hours figure:
- The hour on the clock A 3am burst is priced at night rates, and that rate is stated before you commit to anything.
- What has to come up or come apart Cutting into a slab or opening a wet wall to get at a split pipe is slower work than a burst on an exposed laundry line.
- Which pipe has failed First-wave estate pipework can be fragile at the joints, and joining new copper or PEX onto it takes care.
- What the fix needs in parts The section replaced, the fittings used and any replacement flexi hoses all sit in the figure.
We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead. The midnight figure and the invoice are the same number.
When We're Not the Right Call
A main bursting in the street, or water spurting from the ground before your meter, is Hunter Water's to repair, and the first call gives you their faults contact. Water reaching live electrical wiring needs a licensed electrician alongside us, and a suspected gas leak inside means calling the gas network's emergency number before anything else, then us for the repair.

Where an Urgent Call Leads Next
- A camera check of the line after a blocked sewer is cleared, so the cause is known, not guessed.
- Drain jetting where the blockage is roots or grease rather than a break.
- A CCTV drain inspection when the same drain keeps blocking and the reason needs finding.
- Gas leak detection where the smell of gas came with the flood damage.
- Water leak detection for the hidden under-slab leaks the oldest pipework produces.
Urgent Questions, Straight Answers
Water is pouring through the ceiling. What do I do first?
Close the main shut-off at the meter or beside the cylinder, all the way. Then move whatever the water is soaking and ring. If the tap will not show itself, the person who answers can talk you to it.
Do you come out at 2am in Bolwarra Heights?
Yes. We are Available 24/7, and out-of-hours work is dearer, with the rate quoted before you commit. At 2am the order holds: figure first, your approval, then the work.
Is an overflowing gully in storm rain an emergency?
It can be. A gully at the bottom of a stepped yard can spill into a garage fast, so treat rising water inside the property as urgent. If the cause is a choked stormwater line rather than a burst, the clearing work is on the stormwater page.
Will the price change once you are on site?
No. The agreed figure stands. If the job uncovers something nobody could see from outside a wall or slab, work pauses and the options go to you before anything extra happens.
