Plumbing emergencies do not wait for business hours. Our licensed emergency plumber is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across Rockingham and surrounding suburbs. From burst pipes and gas leaks to severe blockages and hot water failures, we respond fast to minimise damage and restore your plumbing.
Around-the-Clock Emergency Plumbing in Rockingham
A plumbing emergency can strike without warning at any hour—a burst pipe flooding your kitchen at midnight, a gas leak detected just before dinner, or a sewage backup on a Sunday morning. When these situations arise, you need a licensed plumber who answers the phone, arrives quickly, and has the skills and equipment to resolve the problem on the spot.
Our emergency plumbing service operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, serving Rockingham and all surrounding suburbs including Baldivis, Port Kennedy, Safety Bay, Warnbro, Waikiki, Shoalwater, Cooloongup, and Secret Harbour. We carry a comprehensive range of parts, fittings, and specialist equipment in our service vehicle so that the vast majority of emergencies can be resolved in a single visit.
Common Plumbing Emergencies We Handle
Burst Pipes
Burst pipes are one of the most urgent and potentially damaging plumbing emergencies. A single burst pipe can release hundreds of litres of water per hour, causing extensive damage to floors, walls, furniture, and electrical systems. In Rockingham, older homes with copper or galvanised steel pipes are particularly susceptible, especially during temperature fluctuations. We carry pipe repair clamps, replacement sections, and compression fittings to stop the flow and complete a permanent repair quickly.
Gas Leaks
A gas leak is a serious safety hazard that requires immediate professional attention. If you can smell gas—a distinctive rotten egg odour added to natural gas for safety—you should turn off the gas supply at the meter, ventilate the area, and call a licensed gas fitter immediately. Our plumber holds a current WA gas fitting licence and carries gas detection equipment to locate and repair leaks safely, whether they originate from supply lines, fittings, or appliance connections.
Blocked Drains and Sewage Overflows
A severely blocked drain can escalate from a slow-draining sink to a full sewage overflow in a matter of hours. Sewage backups pose significant health risks and require urgent professional intervention. We use electric drain machines and, where necessary, high-pressure water jetters to clear severe blockages in sewer lines, stormwater drains, and internal waste pipes. For complex blockages, we can deploy a CCTV drain camera to identify the exact cause and location.
Hot Water System Failures
Waking up to no hot water—particularly during Rockingham’s cooler months from June through August—qualifies as a genuine emergency for most families. Whether your system has developed a leak, the burner has failed, or the element has burned out, we carry common replacement parts for all major brands and can often restore your hot water within the same visit. If a full replacement is needed, we can arrange next-day installation of a new system.
Overflowing Toilets
An overflowing toilet is both unpleasant and unsanitary, particularly if it involves sewage water. Common causes include blockages in the toilet trap, the sewer line, or a failed cistern mechanism causing continuous water flow. We resolve the immediate overflow, clear any blockage, and repair or replace faulty cistern components to prevent recurrence.
What to Do in a Plumbing Emergency
Knowing what to do in the first few minutes of a plumbing emergency can significantly reduce damage and risk. Here are the key steps:
For water leaks and burst pipes: Locate your main water shut-off valve—typically found at the water meter near the front boundary of your property—and turn it off. Then open an outside tap to relieve pressure in the pipes. Move valuables away from the affected area and use towels or buckets to contain water while you wait for the plumber.
For gas leaks: Turn off the gas supply at the meter if you can do so safely. Do not operate any electrical switches, appliances, or open flames. Open doors and windows to ventilate the area. If the gas smell is strong, evacuate the property and call from outside. Contact us immediately for emergency gas leak repair.
For sewage overflows: Avoid contact with sewage water as it contains harmful bacteria. Do not use any drains or toilets in the property. Keep children and pets away from the affected area. Call us for urgent drain clearing and cleanup advice.
Why Response Time Matters
In any plumbing emergency, the speed of response directly affects the outcome. A burst pipe left running for an extra hour can turn a minor repair into a major insurance claim involving floor replacement, wall repairs, and mould remediation. A gas leak left unattended poses escalating safety risks. Our commitment to rapid response across the Rockingham area means we aim to be at your property within 60 minutes of your call, minimising damage and getting your plumbing back to normal as quickly as possible.

You will know exactly what the repair will cost before we pick up a tool. There are no hidden fees, no hourly rate surprises, and no pressure to approve unnecessary work.
