The calls that can't wait
Four situations cover almost everything that counts as urgent around here. Each has its own page of detail, so follow the link that sounds like your problem.
Burst pipes in Heddon Greta
A split pipe or blown hose dumps water fast, whether it's an old service under a Main Road cottage or a flexi hose behind an estate kitchen. Shut the meter off and call.
Overflowing toilets in Heddon Greta
A pan filling past the brim is usually a blockage further down the line, and it needs clearing gear, not patience. We stop the mess first and find the cause second.
No hot water in Heddon Greta
A dead cylinder on a school morning in a busy family home is an emergency by any measure. We diagnose on the spot and give you the honest repair-or-replace answer.
Not sure it's urgent?
Slow drips, odd noises and damp patches usually aren't emergencies, but they turn into them. If water isn't actively escaping, our general plumbing and drainage pages cover the rest.
What to do in the first five minutes
The gap between spotting the problem and our truck pulling up is where the real damage gets done. A few moves made calmly save carpets, ceilings and cabinetry.
- 1
Kill the water
The meter tap at your front boundary shuts the whole house. Clockwise, firm, and the flow stops.
- 2
Get electrical things clear of the wet
If water has reached appliances or cords, switch the power off at the wall, or leave everything alone until we arrive and say it's safe.
- 3
Move what you can
Rugs, electronics and anything under the leak goes somewhere dry. Towels and buckets do the rest.
- 4
Call us with details
What's leaking, where it's coming from and whether the meter is off. Those three answers get the right gear on the truck the first time.

Made Right, No Questions Asked
An emergency is a bad time to be reading fine print, which is why there isn't any. The promises above are the same on a Sunday-night flood as they are on a Tuesday tap washer.
Where we work in and around Heddon Greta
The village core, the estates out past the expressway ramps, and everything between. Main Road ties us to Kurri Kurri one way, and the Hunter Expressway puts the whole corridor within an easy run the other, so the truck is rarely far from your street.
Our regular run also takes in the neighbours:
If your street sits just over a boundary line, ring anyway. We'll confirm straight away whether you're on the run.
Emergency plumbing questions from local households
Should I turn the water off at the meter before calling?
Yes, if water is running where you can't catch it. The meter tap sits at the front boundary near the footpath; turn it clockwise to stop the supply, then ring us.
Is a burst flexi hose really an emergency?
It is. A failed hose behind a sink pushes water out at full pressure, and estate streets here share the same fittings, so failures arrive in bunches. Shut the meter and call.
My toilet is overflowing. What should I do first?
Stop flushing. Lift the cistern lid and prop the float if water keeps running; if sewage rises in the pan, the blockage is downstream and needs clearing gear, not another flush.
How fast can a plumber get to my street?
We aim for same-day where the schedule allows, and this corridor sits on our regular run, so a truck is often close by. Ring, tell us what's happening, and you get honest timing.
Does the $0 call out apply to emergency jobs?
Yes, whatever the hour. The call out costs nothing and the price lands in writing before work starts; if the quote doesn't suit, we shake hands and leave at no charge.
What do I do about water coming through the ceiling?
Stop the water at the meter and move anything electrical well clear of the wet. A bucket under the bulge and a small release hole save the plaster. Then call us.
