Burst Pipes
A split supply line or a burst renovation hose dumps water fast, and in 1970s-onward housing we mostly find thinned copper or a braided flexi past its rated life. See burst pipes.

When to Ring Us First
Some things can wait for a booked visit. These four usually can't, and every one of them has a page listing the first moves:
Water you can't switch off
a split pipe, a burst flexi hose, or water rising through the floor. See burst pipes.
A toilet that won't stop
water tracking over the bathroom floor and toward the hallway. See toilet overflowing.
No hot water at all
a tank that has given up overnight, or a gas unit that won't light. See no hot water.
A smell of gas
leave the house first, then call from the street. See gas leaks.
Plumbing emergency happening now? Start here:
- Water that won't stop: shut the main tap at the water meter, then ring (07) 3522 5623.
- Gas you can smell: get everyone outside and call from there. Leave switches alone and keep flames away.
- A dripping tap or a sluggish drain: this can normally wait for a booked time. Ring (07) 3522 5623 to book one.
- After dark, on a weekend or a public holiday: we're available 24/7, 7 days a week, with no extra fee for nights, weekends or public holidays.
Wet Spells and the Low Streets
Bray Park's homes sit on flat ground along Four Mile Creek, and the council's flood overlay reaches well into the residential streets, homes included. That shapes the emergencies we get called to, and when.
When the creek runs high
Storm-season downpours can push creek-side water back through low pits and gully inlets, and the late-night calls bunch up on the streets nearest the water.
The 2011 reminder
The January 2011 North Pine River flood forced evacuations in parts of nearby Strathpine and Lawnton, and this flat country moves water quickly when it arrives.
Storm water at the slab
Water standing over a slab edge is a call-now job, not a wait-until-Monday one: stop it, make it safe, then quote the fix.
The Emergencies We Answer
Four emergencies account for nearly every urgent call we take here, all with a dedicated page:
Toilet Overflowing
An overflowing pan is part blockage, part hygiene emergency, and the ones we clear here usually trace to earthenware branch drains with shifted joints catching wipes and paper. See toilet overflowing.
No Hot Water
A tank letting go at the base usually announces itself with one cold morning shower, and the suburb's second- and third-generation units fail this way often. See no hot water.
Gas Leaks
Get everyone outside straight away, touch no switches on the way out, call us about gas leaks from the footpath, then our general plumbing or drainage teams can handle the follow-on work.

What Counts as an Emergency
Not every dripping tap is an emergency, and we will tell you honestly if yours can wait. The test is whether water or gas is escaping somewhere it should not be, right now, and whether you can safely stop it yourself.
The calls we treat as call-now jobs:
Water you can't isolate
the meter won't shut it off, or it's coming from somewhere you can't reach.
Gas you can smell
any whiff of gas inside or around the house, day or night.
Sewage inside the house
an overflowing fixture or a floor waste backing up where the family walks.
A total hot water failure
especially with a leaking tank, because a failing valve can dump a full cylinder's worth of water.
While you wait, three steps cover most situations: turn the water off at the meter for a burst pipe, isolate the hot water unit at its valves if the tank leaks, and for gas leave the property entirely without touching any switches or electrical fittings as you go.
The Renovation Hose Problem
The flexi hose
Most of the brick-veneer housing here went up from the 1970s through to the 1990s, and the kitchen and bathroom renovations of the 1990s and 2000s fitted braided hoses now past their rated life. They burst without warning, usually while nobody is home.
Winter's warning shot
Frost barely registers here, but the first cold snap still finds every weak tank and tired relief valve. A unit past its first decade with a weeping relief valve is telling you something: book a hot water repair before it becomes a midnight call, and see the hot water page for what replacement involves.

FAQs on Bray Park Emergencies
Call (07) 3522 5623Do you charge extra for emergency call-outs at night?
No, nights, weekends and public holidays cost the same as a Tuesday morning, and every emergency job in Bray Park carries $0 call-out fees whichever hour you ring us on the phone.
Who fixes a burst water main on my street?
Unitywater maintains the street water mains, so a burst on the nature strip is their responsibility, whereas the pipes beyond the connection point on your property are yours, and ours to fix.
What should I do about a burst pipe before you arrive?
Turn the water off at the meter, open a low outside tap to drain the line, keep everyone clear of wet power points, then ring us and we'll take it from there.
Is a gushing hose under my kitchen sink an emergency?
Yes, shut the isolation valve under the sink straight away, because braided hoses fitted in 1990s and 2000s renovations fail without warning once past their rated life, and ring us after.
Do you attend gas leak calls?
Yes, gas leak calls are licensed gasfitting work we attend, and if you can smell gas inside, get everyone outside first and ring us from the footpath rather than the hallway.
