Emergencies We Handle Fast

These are the calls we drop everything for. You get a qualified, equipped plumber — not a subcontractor — at your door fast.

Burst Pipes

We isolate the burst, repair or replace the damaged section, and get your water supply restored fast to prevent structural flooding and water damage.

Geyser Failures

Burst geyser, leaking valve, tripped electrical fault — we handle it all 24/7. We'll shut it down safely, contain the water, and replace or repair on the spot.

Severe Blockages

When your drains back up and nothing works, our high-pressure jetting equipment clears main sewer lines and stubborn blockages that can't wait until morning.

Major Leaks

Hidden slab leaks, wall leaks, or ceiling drips — we trace the source, expose it with minimal damage, and fix it properly the first time.

Sewer Backups

When raw sewage backs up into your property, that's a health hazard. We respond immediately with the right equipment to clear the line and sanitise the area.

Electrical Plumbing Faults

Geyser electrical tripping your power? Water near wiring? We coordinate with your electrical safety to make sure everything is isolated and safe before we repair.

While You Wait

Immediate Safety Steps

While our plumber is en route, take these three steps right now to minimise damage to your property.

1
Shut off the water at the main street meter. This stops all flow into your property and prevents further flooding.
2
Turn off your geyser switch on the DB board. A dry geyser with power on can overheat and become a fire hazard.
3
Move rugs, electronics, and furniture away from standing water. The faster you act, the less secondary damage you'll face.

"Sewer backed up into our bathrooms — absolutely disgusting. Pinnacle came out on a public holiday, jetted the line, and even hosed down the affected area. Fair price, no complaints. These guys are the real deal."
