None of them ask you to open equipment or attempt a repair. If you think gas may be leaking Leave the area, avoid switches and flames, then call us from somewhere safe. If anyone is in immediate danger, call emergency services on **000**. If water is near power points or electrical fittings, keep clear of the area and contact a licensed electrician where electrical work or isolation is required. 1300 394 472 [Call our team](tel:1300-394-472) ### Stop using the affected fixtures Leave the affected sink, shower, toilet or appliance alone where practical. Continuing to use it can push wastewater further into the home. ### Keep clear of flooding and sewage Block access to pooled water or backed-up wastewater so children and animals cannot enter the area. Do not pour drain chemicals into it. ### Note what changed and when Note the affected fixtures, when the symptoms began and whether they are changing. Those details give our plumber a useful starting point. ### Take photos only where it is safe A photo of the fixture, the meter or a visible mark helps us prepare. Skip it if the area cannot be approached safely. [Call 1300 394 472](tel:1300-394-472) ## The plumbing work we handle for Brisbane homes In detail Describe the symptom first, even if you are unsure what caused it. The service summaries show the usual checks and when you receive a proposed price. ### Emergency and burst pipes Unexpected water flow, a burst line or wastewater overflowing into the property calls for prompt assessment. Stay away from contaminated water, and leave the area before calling if you suspect a gas leak. The first priority on site is identifying the hazard and making the situation safer where that can be done. Once access and damage are understood, we outline the repair options, parts and proposed cost. ![Emergency and burst pipes](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-isolating-burst-water-main-desktop.webp) q-plumber-isolating-burst-water-main-tablet.webp q-plumber-isolating-burst-water-main-mobile.webp ![Emergency and burst pipes](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-burst-pipe-repair-desktop.webp) q-plumber-burst-pipe-repair-tablet.webp q-plumber-burst-pipe-repair-mobile.webp [Talk to us about an urgent fault](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/emergency-plumbing) Urgent faults assessed on arrival, Immediate risk controlled where practical, Proposed next steps explained ### Blocked drains Tell us whether the problem affects one outlet or several, and mention any gurgling, odour, slow drainage or overflow. That pattern helps narrow down where the restriction may sit. We inspect the accessible drainage and choose a clearing approach that suits the condition found. A drain camera may be recommended when seeing inside the pipe would change the diagnosis or repair plan. ![Blocked drains](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-blocked-drain-camera-inspection-desktop.webp) q-plumber-blocked-drain-camera-inspection-tablet.webp q-plumber-blocked-drain-camera-inspection-mobile.webp ![Blocked drains](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-clearing-exterior-drain-with-jetter-desktop.webp) q-plumber-clearing-exterior-drain-with-jetter-tablet.webp q-plumber-clearing-exterior-drain-with-jetter-mobile.webp [Book a drain assessment](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/blocked-drains) Sinks toilets and floor wastes assessed, Camera inspection when it adds value, Clearing method matched to the blockage ### Toilet repairs Continuous filling, weak flushing, movement at the pan or moisture around the base can indicate different toilet faults. Describe exactly what happens during and after a flush. Our assessment covers the inlet and outlet valves, cistern, seals, pan connection and nearby drainage as relevant. We then price the suitable adjustment, component replacement, reseal or drainage work for approval. ![Toilet repairs](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-testing-toilet-base-for-moisture-three-desktop.webp) q-plumber-testing-toilet-base-for-moisture-three-tablet.webp q-plumber-testing-toilet-base-for-moisture-three-mobile.webp ![Toilet repairs](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-repairing-toilet-cistern-three-desktop.webp) q-plumber-repairing-toilet-cistern-three-tablet.webp q-plumber-repairing-toilet-cistern-three-mobile.webp ![Toilet repairs](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-servicing-toilet-cistern-desktop.webp) q-plumber-servicing-toilet-cistern-tablet.webp q-plumber-servicing-toilet-cistern-mobile.webp [Book a toilet repair](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/leaking-toilets) Running water and base leaks, Flush and refill problems, Cistern pan and seal assessment ### Pipe relining Recurring blockages can point to a structural fault such as pipe movement, cracking or root intrusion. Restoring flow alone may not address that underlying defect. Camera findings and access conditions determine whether relining is a sensible alternative to excavation and replacement. We define the proposed repair length, preparation and cost before asking you to proceed. ![Pipe relining](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-preparing-drain-liner-desktop.webp) q-plumber-preparing-drain-liner-tablet.webp q-plumber-preparing-drain-liner-mobile.webp ![Pipe relining](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-guiding-drain-liner-at-access-point-desktop.webp) q-plumber-guiding-drain-liner-at-access-point-tablet.webp q-plumber-guiding-drain-liner-at-access-point-mobile.webp [Ask about pipe relining](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/pipe-relining) Pipe condition checked first, Relining compared with excavation, Scope and proposed cost documented ### Hot water Book an assessment for a cold supply, short hot-water duration, discoloured water or visible moisture near the system. Share the unit make and model only when the label is safely accessible. Relevant valves, controls, energy connections and the unit itself are checked to identify the fault. We compare feasible repair and replacement paths and provide the proposed cost before work is authorised. ![Hot water](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-inspecting-external-hot-water-unit-three-desktop.webp) q-plumber-inspecting-external-hot-water-unit-three-tablet.webp q-plumber-inspecting-external-hot-water-unit-three-mobile.webp ![Hot water](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-testing-hot-water-temperature-three-desktop.webp) q-plumber-testing-hot-water-temperature-three-tablet.webp q-plumber-testing-hot-water-temperature-three-mobile.webp ![Hot water](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-servicing-storage-hot-water-system-desktop.webp) q-plumber-servicing-storage-hot-water-system-tablet.webp q-plumber-servicing-storage-hot-water-system-mobile.webp [Get help with hot water](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/hot-water) Gas electric and solar units, Practical options compared, Proposed cost supplied for approval ### Gas fitting Gas work can include leak testing, appliance connections and installations. If you smell gas, leave the area, avoid switches and flames, then contact the gas network or emergency services from somewhere safe. Contact us to confirm which current credentials apply to the proposed work. The scope, price and required compliance paperwork should be clear before anything is agreed. ![Gas fitting](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-gas-fitter-testing-meter-union-desktop.webp) q-gas-fitter-testing-meter-union-tablet.webp q-gas-fitter-testing-meter-union-mobile.webp ![Gas fitting](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-gas-fitter-checking-cooktop-with-detector-desktop.webp) q-gas-fitter-checking-cooktop-with-detector-tablet.webp q-gas-fitter-checking-cooktop-with-detector-mobile.webp [Ask about gas work](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/gas-fitter) Credentials confirmed for the work, Leak testing and appliance connections, Compliance paperwork where required ### Leaking taps and fixtures Drips, stiff controls, poor shut-off and moisture at a fitting can waste water or affect nearby cabinetry and finishes. Tell us which outlet is involved and when the leak appears. We assess the mixer or tap body, serviceable cartridge or washer, seals and connections, including any visible moisture nearby. The proposed repair is priced first, then the completed work is operated and checked. ![Leaking taps and fixtures](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-testing-repaired-kitchen-mixer-desktop.webp) q-plumber-testing-repaired-kitchen-mixer-tablet.webp q-plumber-testing-repaired-kitchen-mixer-mobile.webp ![Leaking taps and fixtures](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-repairing-kitchen-mixer-tap-desktop.webp) q-plumber-repairing-kitchen-mixer-tap-tablet.webp q-plumber-repairing-kitchen-mixer-tap-mobile.webp [Book a tap repair](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/leaking-taps) Tap mixer and fitting faults, Nearby moisture considered, Repaired fixture operated and checked ### Leak detection Persistent stains, lifting paint, damp finishes or unexplained meter movement can justify investigating for concealed water. Leave the affected finish visible until it has been assessed. Meter observations and suitable detection tools help narrow the source before intrusive access is proposed. We explain whether plumbing work is indicated, whether another trade is needed and what access may be required. ![Leak detection](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-checking-wall-with-moisture-meter-desktop.webp) q-plumber-checking-wall-with-moisture-meter-tablet.webp q-plumber-checking-wall-with-moisture-meter-mobile.webp ![Leak detection](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/uploads/2026/08/q-plumber-scanning-wall-with-thermal-camera-desktop.webp) q-plumber-scanning-wall-with-thermal-camera-tablet.webp q-plumber-scanning-wall-with-thermal-camera-mobile.webp [Arrange a leak assessment](https://qplumbinganddrains.com.au/services/leak-detection) Concealed water investigated, Meter and detection checks, Access implications explained ## Why an assessment changes the outcome Before vs after Treating only the visible symptom can leave its source unresolved.
