Determine if the situation is an emergency by asking yourself the following:
If you’ve determined that your plumbing situation requires immediate attention, contact us on our 24/7 emergency line. Over the phone, we will guide you on how to safely resolve or manage the situation.
After supressing the issue over the phone My Plumber WA will work with you to determine the best course of action. Whether this means an emergency callout or scheduling a convenient appointment, we will work in the best interest of you and your home.
Some things cannot wait for business hours. Call the emergency line and we will get a plumber out as soon as possible.
Step 1 – Turn off power
As soon as you discover a burst pipe, your first step should be to turn off the power supply to the affected area. Locate your electrical switchboard and switch off the circuit breaker or remove the fuse that controls the electricity to the area where the burst pipe is located. This precautionary measure helps minimise the risk of electrical hazards caused by water coming into contact with electrical components.
Step 2 – Get a Bucket
After turning off the power, grab a bucket or any suitable container to collect water leaking from the burst pipe. Place the bucket directly beneath the affected area to prevent water from spreading and causing further damage. This step helps minimise water damage to your property while you work on resolving the issue.
Step 3 – Turn Off the Water Main Valve
Once you have taken the initial steps to mitigate electrical and water damage, locate the water main valve in your home. This valve is usually located near the water meter or where the main water supply enters your property. Turn the valve clockwise (or to the right) to shut off the water supply to your entire home. By doing this, you will stop the flow of water through the burst pipe and prevent additional water leakage.

This is the third time we have used My Plumber WA and another excellent job by Vince, and Toni. They arrived on time and got straight into the job of replacing the taps in our ensuite bathroom and kitchen, including the supply and installation of shut off/isolation valves. They also found and fixed our low hot water pressure problem, a filter on the instantaneous gas booster hws blocked with calcium deposits. All for a very fair price and with the areas left in a clean state. A pleasure to deal with, and we highly recommended them.
My Plumber WA came out to my property to do whole house maintenance, the works included where, servicing all our toilets, installing isolation vavles, installation of sink mixers and a new under sink water filter in our kitchen. I would highly recommend My Plumber WA for any quality needs.
These guys are great, Vince knows what he’s doing. Always 10/10 with punctuality and communication you get text reminders for your appointments plus texts that let you know exactly how far they are so no waiting around all day! Happy customers.
Top marks to My Plumber WA for excellent work & thanks to Vince for cleverly solving cistern replacement problems. He has an admirable work ethic & nice attitude.
Great experience all round for a very reasonable price. Vince was professional, experienced and he helped clearly explain everything to me. He responded quickly and came out immediately. I will definitely use them every time and I am relieved to never need to phone around in the future.
