How to Handle a Burst Pipe in Melbourne
Immediate steps to minimise damage from a burst pipe while waiting for an emergency plumber.
- 1
Shut off the main water supply immediately
Turn off the main water meter at the front of your property (clockwise to close). Every second counts — this stops water flooding into your walls, floors, and foundations.
- 2
Turn off electricity in affected areas
If water is near power points or has reached your meter box, turn off the electricity at the main switchboard. Water and electricity are a life-threatening combination.
- 3
Open cold taps to drain the pipes
Open cold taps around the home to drain remaining water pressure out of the system. This reduces the volume of water that can continue leaking from the burst section.
- 4
Move valuables away from water
Move furniture, electronics, and valuables away from the flooded area to minimise damage. Place towels to contain the spread of water if safe to do so.
- 5
