Emergency plumber,
when it can't wait.
Burst pipes, gas leaks, flooding, anywhere across Melbourne's eastern and south-eastern suburbs. I pick up, I come out. Average arrival is under 60 minutes, and the person you speak to on the phone is the person under your sink an hour later.

What this
actually means.
A plumbing emergency is not the moment to be ringing around for quotes. Something is running that should not be, and every minute it runs is doing damage. So the job is simple: stop the water, make the property safe, then work out what it takes to fix it properly.
I am a one-man operation, so there is no dispatcher and no sub-contractor. You call 0407 756 172, you get me, and I tell you honestly whether I can be there in the next hour or whether you are better off with someone closer. If it is going to cost money, you hear the number before I start.
What you get,
and when to ring.
