Cold showers, half-finished dishes, morning routines thrown out the window. When your hot water fails, it affects your whole household straight away. And if gas is involved, it can also be a serious safety concern.
At GA PERRY we treat emergency hot water and gas jobs as exactly that – urgent.
We’re a Perth-based plumbing and electrical company with licensed trades ready to respond day or night. When you call, we organise a qualified plumber or gas fitter to attend as soon as possible, arriving in a fully stocked van so most problems can be fixed then and there.
If your electric or continuous-flow hot water system has stopped working, keeps tripping the power, or isn’t heating properly, we can help. These systems often fail suddenly, leaving you with no hot water at all.
Our team will quickly diagnose the issue and carry out safe, compliant repairs, and if electrical work is involved, it’s handled properly by licenced electricians. Wherever possible, we focus on getting your existing system running again before recommending replacement.
Gas Hot Water Repairs
When a gas hot water system starts playing up, it’s not something you want to ignore. If your system isn’t heating properly, the pilot light keeps going out, or the unit cuts out unexpectedly, our team can help.Â
We handle emergency gas hot water repairs for systems that have stopped producing hot water, won’t ignite, or show signs of unsafe operation. All gas repairs are completed by licensed gas fitters and in line with Australian safety standards, so you can feel confident that everything is handled safely and properly.
If you can smell gas, hear hissing, or notice a gas appliance behaving unusually, it’s important to act fast. Our emergency gas repair service covers gas leaks, gas smells around hot water units or meters, faulty gas hot water systems, and gas appliances that won’t ignite or stay lit.
If it’s safe to do so, turn off the gas at the meter, ventilate the area, and call GA PERRY straight away. With licenced gas specialists across Perth, we can respond quickly to protect your safety and get things back under control.

We generally consider it an emergency if you have no hot water at all, your hot water system is leaking heavily, you can smell gas near the unit, or the system is making unusual noises or tripping power. These issues can affect safety, cause property damage, or leave your household without hot water unexpectedly.
If you’re unsure, give us a call. We’ll ask a few quick questions and let you know whether an urgent visit is recommended.
Response times depend on your location and how busy we are at the time, but emergency hot water repairs and gas leaks are always prioritised. When you call, we’ll let you know the estimated arrival time based on your suburb and the nearest available technician will be able to assist.
Some of the most common emergency hot water issues we see include:
If your system isn’t behaving as it should, it’s worth having it checked before the problem gets worse.
Yes. We regularly work on gas storage hot water systems, gas continuous-flow (instant) systems, heat pumps and many common electric hot water systems where plumbing support is required.
If your unit is less common, we can still usually diagnose the issue and advise on the best next step, whether that’s repair, replacement, or referral to a specialist if needed.
Whenever possible, we’ll repair your existing hot water system first, as long as it’s safe and cost-effective to do so. If the system is very old, badly corroded, or replacement parts are no longer available, we’ll explain the situation clearly and talk you through hot water system replacement options.
If a new system is required, we’ll help you choose the right type and size for your household and arrange professional installation.
If you lose hot water unexpectedly, there are a few simple steps that can help while you wait for assistance:
If you’re unsure how to do any of this, our technician can guide you safely over the phone.
Along with isolating the system where safe, it’s best to keep the area around the hot water unit clear and avoid touching wet electrical components. Follow any safety advice given by our team over the phone.
If there is a strong gas smell and you feel unsafe, move to fresh air immediately and call us from outside the property or from a safe distance.
Hot water heater breakdowns are usually caused by normal wear and tear over time. Common causes include:
Many of these issues develop gradually and aren’t obvious until the system suddenly stops working. Regular servicing can help reduce the risk of breakdowns, but if a fault does occur, prompt repairs can often prevent further damage.
