Burst pipe, water through the ceiling, no hot water, a gas smell you can't place. If it can't wait until morning, ring us. We're an after hours plumber based in Smithfield covering the northern suburbs, Barossa and Adelaide Hills. Turn the water off at the meter first, then call and we'll give you a straight answer on when we can get there.
Water going somewhere it shouldn't, or no water or gas at all. That's the test.
A burst pipe, a leak you can't stop at the tap, water coming through a ceiling or light fitting, a toilet or sewer backing up into the house, no hot water at all, or a gas smell. Any of those, ring straight away.
Most of the cost of a burst pipe isn't the pipe. It's the floor, the plaster and the cabinets it sat under for six hours.
A dripping tap, a slow drain or a hot water unit that's getting old can wait for a daytime booking, and it's cheaper that way. Not sure which you've got? Ring and describe it. We'll tell you straight.
We quote the job before we start, and the price we say is the price you pay. If we can't fix it on the spot, we'll make it safe, tell you what it will take, and you decide. No pressure, no upsell.
Turn it off at the meter, then call. We'll talk you through it on the phone while we're on the way.

It's near your front boundary. Turn the tap clockwise until it stops.
Turn it off at the meter or the bottle if you can reach it safely, don't touch light switches, open the windows and get everyone outside. Call from outside.
If water is near power points, lights or appliances, switch those circuits off at the switchboard. Never stand in water to do it.
Move furniture and rugs clear and put a bucket under anything still dripping.
Take photos before you mop. Your insurer will ask for them.
No. We take after-hours calls most nights and weekends. Ring, and if we can't get to you we'll say so straight away rather than leave you waiting. If it's safe to wait until morning, we'll tell you that too and book you in first thing.
It depends where you are and what job we're currently on. Because we're based in Smithfield, the northern suburbs are close, while the Barossa, the Hills or the Mid North take a bit longer to reach. We'll give you an honest arrival time on the phone, not a guess.

Ring anyway. If you've turned the water off and nothing is getting worse, we can often talk you through it on the phone and book you in for the morning. It costs nothing to ask, and it beats guessing at midnight.
