Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumber: FAQ

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 there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to solve the problem.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, put a container to catch drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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.

It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Blocked Drains Issues

We know a blocked drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That’s why our crew of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it on your own with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the pipes unblocked.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our after hours Somerville plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to keep you going until we come back.

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 clogged drain send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Time to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost following a chilly day? Have a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s a pain to have a good clean when the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it sorted promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it working again as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know around thiry percent of your home electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to items stored nearby. Don’t let hot water troubles hurt your wallet, get them repaired as fast as possible.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Somerville emergency plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our reliable team can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

The pipes in your home are a generally concealed but significant part of everyday activities. Big or little, underground, in the walls or the roof, they carry clean water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Often, people don’t even think about their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is a major problem that needs to be resolved urgently before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to be there quickly, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps can fail. If you reside in a cold location, they may have frozen and split. They could just be old and past their use-by. They might not have been installed properly to begin with. Tree roots may invade underground pipes.

Our after hours plumbers will identify and fix your burst pipes or leaks promptly and efficiently.

All Taps Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a busted faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a serious aggravation. Something that may go unheard in the brouhaha of daily life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos at 2am, disturbing your deams.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole new tap, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are well equipped with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have the faucet you require, we can put in a temporary tap until we locate the style you desire.

From big to small, our Somerville emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

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

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of tap, we can often replace worn out parts on the spot for a very acceptable outlay.
