What to do before we arrive
The first five minutes of a plumbing emergency matter. Here is what you can do to minimise damage while Steve is on his way.
- Burst pipe: turn off your main water valve (usually near the front meter)
- Gas leak: open windows, do not use electrical switches, leave the house
- Flooding: turn off water at the mains, move valuables to higher ground
- Blocked sewer: stop using water in the house until we arrive
- No hot water: check the pilot light (gas) or circuit breaker (electric) first
- Leaking roof: place buckets under drips and move furniture away from the area
Emergency response reviews
Real experiences from Melbourne homeowners
“What a wonderful duo, father and son! Extremely competent and kind! Got a gas heater removed at a reasonable price and on such short notice. He kindly replaced a shower head for me at no extra cost too while he was there! Steve didn't stop there. He returned to the property to drop off a replacement part. What a service! Highly recommend.”

“Steve and Nick came today to fix the leaking pipe under my kitchen sink. He was on time, very professional, and did an excellent job. The problem was solved quickly and neatly. Very happy with the service and would definitely recommend Kovele Plumbing to others.”

“I have been using Steve for about 8-10 years now. He has helped in the case of emergencies and also regular home plumbing needs. He has always gone above and beyond to help me out. I will continue to call on Steve for all my plumbing needs.”
Andrea R.
“Absolutely outstanding service from this highly skilled father-and-son team. My nearly 50-year-old home's drainage system has been brought back to life under their skilled hands. From the very first inspection and clear communication, to replacing old damaged pipes, clearing stubborn blockages, installing new pits, and thorough drainage testing. Every step was done with remarkable patience and professionalism.”
