Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do immediately if a pipe bursts?
Turn off the main water supply immediately at the street stopcock or meter. Then call us — we'll dispatch an emergency plumber while you minimise spread by removing valuables and mopping up where safe.
How do you find a burst pipe inside a wall in Sydney?
We use acoustic leak detection equipment and thermal imaging cameras to locate pipes to within centimetres without opening walls unnecessarily. In most cases we make a single small access point for the repair.
Does my home insurance cover burst pipe repairs?
Most home and contents policies cover sudden and unexpected pipe bursts — but not gradual leaks. We provide a detailed itemised report and photos to support your claim.
How long does a burst pipe repair take?
Most accessible pipe repairs are completed within 1–3 hours. Concealed or under-slab pipes may take longer due to location work, but we always aim to restore water supply the same day.
Why do pipes burst in Sydney?
Corrosion in older galvanised pipes, high water pressure, ground movement (especially after drought and then rain), freezing in Blue Mountains areas, and accidental drilling during renovations are the most common causes.
