Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency Plumbers

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, clean up any water, and put a container to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

Big or little, buried under the ground or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a concealed but vital part of your daily life. They bring fresh water to your abode, and remove used water and sewage out.

Most of the time you barely even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved asap, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be with you quickly. We’re waiting to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise yet more leaking.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older home, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and ruptured. In a newer house, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Underground connections could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will locate the issue and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other problems.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Problems Fixed

Do you own a irksome tap? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

A lot of our clientelle over the years have told us how annoying it is to have a dripping or defective tap. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s echoing around your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a serious problem.

It is not only aggravating drips though. Leaks can drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole new faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are well stocked with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have what you need, our plumber can install an interim tap until we locate what you need.

As well as serving Mellons Bay with emergency plumbing of all types, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or minor.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and tie it onto the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and flow off quietly.
