    Plumbing Emergencies We Prioritise

    If it’s urgent to you, it’s a priority for us. We’re geared up to handle the high-pressure jobs that can’t wait until tomorrow.

    BURSTING LEAKS & PIPES

    We handle everything from split copper lines to failed flexi-hoses. We’ll isolate the leak and get the repair done properly.

    BLOCKED TOILETS & SEWER

    Raw sewage backups are a serious health risk. We use high-pressure jetting to clear the blockage and get things moving.

    HOT WATER FAILURES

    We handle repairs for both gas and electric systems. We’ll diagnose the fault and get your hot water back on.

    GAS LEAK DETECTION

    If you smell gas, don’t risk it. We’re licensed gasfitters, we’ll find the leak and make the site safe immediately.

    ROOF & GUTTER LEAKS

    Heavy Illawarra rain and wind can catch you off guard. We’re on call for urgent roof leaks or gutter failures.

    Why Plumbing Emergencies Happen in the Illawarra

    TREE ROOT INTRUSION

    Older terracotta pipes in suburbs like Figtree and Corrimal are prime targets for thirsty tree roots. We don’t just guess where the problem is, we use CCTV drain cameras to pinpoint the intrusion and high-pressure jetters to clear the blockage without digging up your yard.

    AGING PIPEWORK REPAIRS

    Many homes across Wollongong still rely on original galvanised piping that has reached its limit. When these pipes burst, they cause major issues fast. We’re equipped to handle urgent copper or PEX re-piping to replace failed sections and permanently restore your water pressure to normal.

    COASTAL STORM DAMAGE

    Heavy salt air and sudden coastal winds can lift roof sheeting or choke gutters with debris in minutes. We provide an emergency response for roof patching and gutter clearing to stop water ingress before it causes structural damage to your ceilings.

    Emergency Plumbing FAQs

    We aim to respond to genuine emergencies within 60 minutes across Wollongong and Shellharbour. If we’re tied up, we’ll tell you exactly how far away we are so you aren’t left waiting.

    Emergency work requires us to shift our schedule and head out immediately. We are 100% transparent about our call-out fees; we’ll confirm the costs with you over the phone before we head your way.

    In most cases, yes. Our vans are stocked with the materials needed to complete a permanent repair on the spot. We carry common fittings and pipe sections to ensure we don’t just leave you with a temporary patch.

    Yes. We work with local landlords and property managers to handle urgent repairs fast. We’re fully licensed and insured, providing the professional invoicing needed for rental property maintenance records.

    Turn off your gas supply at the meter or bottles immediately, open your windows, and stay outside. Call us from a safe distance. We use specialised gas detection equipment to find the source and make the site safe.

    What To Do While You Wait

    Acting fast can save you thousands in water damage. Follow these three steps as soon as you’ve hung up the phone.

    01

    ISOLATE THE WATER

    Find your water meter (usually at the front of your property) and turn the handle clockwise to stop the flow.

    02

    TURN OFF THE HEATER

    If your hot water system is leaking, turn off the “Hot Water” switch at your main electrical board to prevent the heating element from burning out.

    03

    CLEAR THE AREA

    Move furniture, rugs, or valuables away from the leak. This allows us to get straight to work the second we arrive.

    Plumbing & Electrical Under One Roof

    Many plumbing emergencies, particularly hot water failures, involve both water and electricity. Usually, you’d have to coordinate two different trades to get the job finished.

    Because Jones Co provides both Plumbing and Electrical services, we handle the entire repair. We coordinate the work so your water is flowing and your power is safe before we leave. It’s one team, one point of contact, and one transparent invoice.

    “I know if you’re calling me with an emergency, you’re probably having a pretty rough day. If a pipe has split in the wall or you’ve got a gas leak, my goal is to get to your door, tell you exactly what’s happening, and give you a price before I even pick up a wrench. I’m a licensed plumber and gas fitter, and because the Jones & Co. team also handles electrical, we can take care of the whole headache, like fixing a hot water system and the power, in one go. I’ve lived and worked in the Illawarra for years, and I stand by every job we do.”
