Your suburb, what is happening, and whether water is escaping right now. That last detail is what decides how fast this needs to move.

Water you cannot stop — turn it off at the meter The isolation tap sits beside the water meter, usually near the front boundary. Turn it clockwise until it stops. Every minute it runs is damage you are paying to dry out.
Gas smell — do not call a plumber first Get everyone outside, do not touch light switches, and do not use a phone inside the building. From outside, ring Australian Gas Networks on 1800 427 532 — their Queensland network runs west from Augustine Heights through to Leichhardt. On bottled LPG it is the supplier's number printed on the bottle. Gas is not a plumbing call until it is made safe.
Sewage coming back up inside Stop using every fixture in the house — each flush adds to it. Then call Urban Utilities on 13 23 64. If the overflow is in the street or the gully is surcharging in heavy rain, it is the network's problem, not your pipe's.
Water near electrical fittings Do not touch it. For fallen powerlines, shocks or tingles, ring Energex on 13 19 62. For a plain power outage it is 13 62 62. If someone is in immediate danger it is 000.
Storm or flood damage to the property QLD SES on 132 500 for temporary make-safe — roofs, walls, rising water. They do not do plumbing repairs and will not pretend to.
None of the above needs us first. Make it safe, then worry about who fixes it.
A licensed local plumber contacts you directly, works out what is actually wrong, and gives you a firm price before starting. Their QBCC licence number comes with it.
No obligation. Takes 30 seconds.
