  • Smell gas: get everyone out, put out flames, don't touch switches, and call the emergency number on your gas bill. In the south-east that's Australian Gas Networks on 1800 427 532 or Multinet Gas on 132 691, depending on your street (Energy Safe Victoria).
  • Storm or flood damage: VICSES on 132 500 (source), and 000 if anyone is in danger.

Before you say yes to RACV Emergency Home Assist

  • Ask them this: Confirm your address is covered, the current one-off call-out cost and whether any follow-on repair is separately quoted.
  • Ask for the call-out fee and what it covers: after-hours rates, travel and the first half hour are often charged separately from the repair.
  • Agree the scope: a make-safe visit tonight and the full repair later are often two jobs. Ask which you're getting, and get the price for each.
  • Keep the paperwork: the invoice, the certificate and any photos, for the insurer, the landlord or the next tradie. Paying a tradie.

How this page was made: everything in “What its website says” was read on racv.com.au, and links to the page it came from. We haven't verified availability, prices or workmanship, RACV Emergency Home Assist hasn't paid to be listed, and a listing isn't an endorsement. The checks and emergency numbers come from Victoria's regulators and utilities, linked where they appear. Read on 1 November 2026.
