Yes. Most major Australian cities have multiple plumbing companies offering genuine 24/7 emergency response — including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, and Canberra.

A plumbing emergency is any situation causing immediate property damage or health risk: burst pipes causing flooding, no water supply, complete hot water failure in winter, major sewage backup, gas leaks (always a genuine emergency — call the gas network too), overflowing toilets that won't stop, and frozen pipes. Non-urgent issues like dripping taps, slow-draining sinks, and cosmetic repairs can usually wait for business hours to save on after-hours fees.
