Plumber in Northcote — 24/7 emergencies & leak repair
Northcote’s mix of classic homes and modern renovations means leaks can appear in obvious places — or stay hidden until damage is visible.
We provide 24/7 emergency plumbing and pipe leak repair across Northcote, with clear options and a focus on preventing repeat issues.
If you have an active leak
- Turn off the nearest isolation valve (kitchen/laundry/bathroom) if safe.
- If water is near electricity, switch off power at the main board first.
- Use towels/buckets to reduce spread and protect nearby items.
- Call us with your suburb, property type, and where the water is appearing.
We focus on rapid isolation first, then a durable repair so the issue is less likely to return.

Northcote leak repairs: diagnose first, then repair
In Northcote, we see a lot of “mystery damp patches” that turn out to be small but persistent leaks. We focus on confirming the source before any invasive work.
If you’re near High Street or in a townhouse layout, we’ll ask about where the water is appearing and what fixtures were used recently — then isolate and repair with a long-term fix in mind.
