About this service

A burst pipe is an emergency because water damage grows by the minute. Our first priority is to stop the water, then to repair the pipe and help you dry out and document the damage.

Signs you may need it

Water spraying from a pipe, a ceiling bulging with water or a sudden loss of pressure with wet floors.

How we fix it

  • Isolate the damaged section or the main supply to stop the flow
  • Repair or replace the burst pipe and any damaged fittings
  • Restore water to the rest of the property as soon as it is safe
  • Describe the cause and the repair in writing, with photos, for your insurer

Questions about burst pipes and urgent call-outs

What should I do before the plumber arrives?

Close the main water isolator, switch off the geyser at the distribution board, open a few taps to drain the line and move valuables away from the water. Then call or WhatsApp us with a photo.

Can you help with the insurance claim?

We can describe the cause and the repair in writing and send photos. Your insurer decides on the claim, so contact them as early as possible.
