FAQs
What types of after-hours plumbing emergencies do you handle for Seymour commercial properties?
We respond to any situation that threatens health, safety, or business continuity, including burst or leaking pipes, blocked sewer or stormwater lines, overflowing toilets, gas leaks, failed hot-water plants, commercial kitchen drain backups, and critical backflow or fire-service failures. If water, gas, or waste is escaping uncontrollably or an essential service has stopped, it qualifies as an emergency and we’re ready to attend 24/7.
How fast can your emergency team get to my business after I call?
Because our technicians are on rotating standby within the Seymour–Goulburn corridor, our average door-to-door response time is 45 minutes. In peak weather or traffic conditions we’ll give you a realistic ETA on the phone and provide live updates while we’re en-route. If we can’t reach you fast enough, we’ll guide you through immediate safety steps until we arrive.
Will after-hours service cost more than a daytime visit?
Yes, there is an after-hours loading that covers overtime labour, rapid dispatch, and out-of-schedule supplier access. We disclose the call-out fee upfront and then quote repair options on site before we start work. You’ll never be surprised by hidden charges; all rates—including materials and any specialised equipment—are itemised on your work authorisation form.
Are your plumbers equipped to work on large commercial systems such as hospitals, factories, or shopping centres?
Absolutely. Our fleet vehicles carry commercial-grade pumps, sectional and jet rodders, CCTV inspection cameras, pipe-freezing gear, backflow test kits, and compliant confined-space and elevated-work safety equipment. All technicians hold current Victorian plumbing, gasfitting, and backflow prevention licences, plus site-specific inductions (White Card, Working at Heights, etc.) to ensure we meet the stringent requirements of complex facilities.
What should I do while waiting for the plumber to arrive?
1. Locate and shut off the nearest isolation valve or the main meter to stop water flow. 2. Turn off gas at the meter if you suspect a leak. 3. Kill power to affected electrical circuits in areas that are flooding. 4. Remove valuables and documents from the immediate danger zone. 5. Keep staff and customers clear of slippery surfaces or contaminated water. 6. If sewage is involved, ventilate the area and avoid skin contact. 7. Have any building access cards, service drawings, or plant-room keys ready so we can work faster once onsite.
Do you guarantee your emergency repair work and supplied parts?
Yes. All workmanship carries a lifetime labour guarantee, and parts are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty—typically 12–24 months. If a defect related to our repair reoccurs within this period, we’ll return, rectify, and document the fix at no extra cost. We also provide a detailed service report for your maintenance records and compliance audits.
