Emergency plumber in Burnie, 24 hours, 7 days.
Burst pipe, water through the ceiling, sewer backing up or a gas smell? You get a person on the phone, not a message service. Our workshop is on Wellington Street, so Burnie is the shortest run we do.
First thing — turn it off at the main.
Most after-hours calls in Burnie come down to a handful of situations. Here is what to do first.
Stop the damage first
Being our home town, Burnie is the fastest response zone on the whole coast. If you can shut the water off at the main before we arrive, you have stopped the damage getting worse.
What we handle after hours.
- Burst pipes & major leaks — isolate, make safe, repair
- Blocked sewer backing up — into the house or overflowing the gully
- Hot water failures — including leaking tanks flooding a laundry
- Gas leaks — licensed gas fitters, treated as immediate
- Roof leaks in storms — temporary make-safe then permanent repair
- No water at all — meter, main or valve failure
What you get either way.
- A real person on the phone, any hour
- An honest arrival time, and a text when we are on the way
- Written price before work starts, even after hours
- A straight answer on whether it is yours or TasWater’s
Burnie homeowners ask us.
Do you really answer at 2am?
Yes. You get a person, not a message service. We will talk you through isolating the problem while someone is on the way.
What should I do before you arrive?
Turn the water off at the main if you can — front boundary near the meter, or under the kitchen sink. For a gas smell, do not touch light switches, open the windows and get everyone outside first, then call.
Is it my problem or TasWater’s?
Everything on your side of the connection point is yours, the water main and sewer main are theirs. We will tell you which it is rather than charging you for work that is not yours to pay for.
