An emergency in Bondi is very often an apartment emergency. Much of the suburb is Art Deco and post-war blocks, so a burst flexible hose or a failed hot water unit reaches the apartment below before anyone notices, and salt air means fittings here fail earlier than owners expect.

Repairing a water pipe a demolition crew put through during a bathroom strip-out. Trade damage is one of the more common reasons we get called out mid-job.

In a block, the first sign of a burst hose or a failed cylinder upstairs is often water in your own ceiling. Stopping the water at its source matters more than anything else in the first few minutes, which can mean reaching the owner upstairs, the building manager or the block's main valve.

Tap spindles, external pipework and hot water units corrode faster this close to the ocean, so something that looked fine can fail without much warning. That is worth knowing when you decide whether to repair or replace once the emergency is over.

When a common sewer stack blocks, it affects every apartment above the blockage, and sewage comes up first at the lowest drain. Several units reporting it at once points to the stack, which is a strata matter.

Common Questions

Keep clear of any wet light fittings, and turn off the power at the switchboard if you can do it safely. Then get the water stopped upstairs: contact that apartment, your building manager or your strata manager. Call us, and we will find the source and tell you whether it is a private or common-property fault.

Many apartments have their own isolation valve, often in the kitchen, laundry or bathroom, or in a meter cupboard in the common area. Some older blocks only have a valve for the whole building. It is worth finding yours before you need it.

Yes. We take emergency calls 24/7, including nights, weekends and public holidays, with no call-out fee.
