Water going everywhere
Turn the water off at the main tap, usually in the meter box near the front boundary. Turn it clockwise until it stops. Then call us.
Licensed plumbing and gas across Canberra, Queanbeyan and the surrounding ACT. Emergency call-outs around the clock, and an up-front price talked through before the work starts.

These are the four calls we get most. Here is the first thing to do while we are on our way to you.
Turn the water off at the main tap, usually in the meter box near the front boundary. Turn it clockwise until it stops. Then call us.
Do not touch light switches or anything electrical. Open doors and windows, get everyone outside, and if the smell is strong call Evoenergy on 13 19 09, or 000 if anyone is at risk. Then call us.
Check whether the pilot light has gone out, or whether the isolation switch at the unit has tripped. If it has power and still runs cold, give us a ring.
Stop running water on that line and do not flush again, which is what causes the overflow. Then call and we will clear it properly.
We answer the phone around the clock. If it is an emergency, calling gets you help faster than a form will.

NSW border coverage TBC with Ben
Ironclad Plumbing and Gas is a Canberra plumbing and gas business run by Ben Isaac. It covers the full range of maintenance work, from hot water and blocked drains through to emergencies and licensed gas fitting, for homes, rental properties and businesses across the ACT.
The approach is not complicated. Turn up when you said you would, explain what is actually wrong in plain language, price it honestly, and leave the place tidy. That is the whole pitch, and it is why the reviews read the way they do.
Send it through and we will come back to you. If it is urgent, call instead, that is always faster.
