Burst pipe? Blocked drain? No hot water? Our Master Plumbers are on standby around the clock for fast, reliable emergency response. One call and we'll be on our way.
Sudden leaks and burst pipes flooding your home — we isolate, contain, and repair fast to limit water damage.
Overflowing or backed-up drains and toilets cleared with hydro-jetting and CCTV diagnosis.
Failed or leaking hot water cylinders made safe, diagnosed and repaired — with a replacement quoted and scheduled if it is needed.
Mains water faults and failed supply lines isolated and repaired by licensed, certified specialists.
Our after-hours rates are published in full. When you call, we explain the call-out charge and how time is billed before we dispatch. Because the full extent of an emergency is often only clear once we are on site, we talk you through any further work before we carry it out.
If safe to do so, turn off your main water valve to limit damage, then call us on 03 377 5806. Our standby Christchurch crew will dispatch immediately.
After hours is Monday to Friday 4:30pm – 7:30am, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. An urgent job during normal business hours is charged at our standard rates.
That is $322.00 and $161.00 per hour including GST. Parts and sundries (hemp, thread tape, silicone and similar consumables) are additional.

“Had to call out in the middle of the night and the guy that came out was amazing. He was friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to sort what was going on. Highly recommend and will be using again, if needed (hopefully not in the middle of the night again though!!).”
“We had a new heat-pump hot water cylinder installed. The two young plumbers who came out were absolutely fantastic. They were polite, courteous and did really great work. Thanks to Inline and the team for making this process so easy and fast. Would highly recommend.”
“We have had a total bathroom renovation. The work ethic and professionalism was outstanding. Johnny, Sarah and the team were fantastic to deal with. Work schedule went absolutely to plan. Everyone involved were hard working and very respectful. So thrilled with the finished job — couldn't be better.”
