Burst pipe, blocked toilet or no water? Call to check availability in Lancelin and along the Turquoise Coast. Regional and Pilbara work by arrangement.
A pipe rarely bursts at a convenient hour. It goes on a long weekend, in a holiday rental full of guests, or out on a coastal block where the nearest help feels a long way off. When it does, you need someone who knows the ground, not a stranger reading from a script. North Contracting is owner-operated by Kim, a licensed plumber and gas fitter with over twenty years in the trade. Call to discuss the problem and check whether Kim can attend.
“The person who quotes the job is the person who fixes it.”
01
The emergencies we handle
Burst and split pipes. Major leaks running behind walls or under slabs. Blocked toilets and drains backing up when the house is full. No water at all. Storm and flood damage that turns a quiet night into a scramble. Hot-water systems that fail in the middle of a rental changeover. Whatever has gone wrong, the priority is the same: stop the damage, get you back to working water, and do it properly so it holds. We carry what we need to make a genuine repair on the spot rather than a patch that fails again next week.
02
Built for the coast and the remote blocks
Coastal WA is hard on plumbing. Salt air corrodes fittings from the outside in, bore water scales and stains from the inside out, and shifting sand and limestone soils put slow strain on every buried line. Out on remote and off-grid properties, there is no town main to fall back on and no quick trip to the hardware. Kim spent six years working across the Pilbara mines and remote communities, so self-sufficient setups and long distances are second nature. We arrive equipped to work where others turn back.
03
One person, from the call to the fix
No subcontractors, no handballing your keys to a name you have never heard. The person who answers the phone is the person who quotes the job and the person who does the work. That means honest triage before we even leave, clear upfront pricing with no call-out surprises, and the correct WA paperwork lodged for the work completed. Compliance is not an afterthought here. It is proof the repair was done right, which matters most on the jobs you never want to think about again.

Questions
Good to know.
Can I call about an after-hours plumbing problem?
Call 0412 448 545 to check availability. After-hours attendance and arrival times must be confirmed with Kim; sending an online enquiry does not book an emergency visit.
What counts as a real plumbing emergency?
A burst pipe, a major leak, sewage backing up, a blocked toilet in a full house, storm or flood damage, or no water at all. Anything actively causing damage or leaving you without a working bathroom or kitchen is worth a call. If you are unsure, ring anyway. We would rather talk it through than have you sit on a small leak that becomes a big one overnight.
Can you reach remote or off-grid properties?
Regional, Pilbara and off-grid work is arranged in advance, subject to availability. Call 0412 448 545 with your location and the job details to discuss whether Kim can attend. His six years working across the Pilbara provide experience with remote properties and difficult access.
What should I do before you get there?
Find your main water shut-off valve and turn it off to stop the flow. For a burst hot-water line, switch off the water heater too. If water is near power points or the switchboard, keep clear and turn off power at the mains if it is safe. Call 0412 448 545 to discuss the problem and confirm whether Kim can attend.
Do you handle holiday-rental emergencies?
Regularly. A blocked drain or dead hot-water system during a changeover can cost you a booking, so we treat rental call-outs as urgent and work around guests. We fix the fault, lodge the correct WA paperwork, and keep you updated so you can manage the guests with confidence rather than chasing us for answers.
