Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency Plumber

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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to stop all water to your residence.

Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there shortly to fix the leak.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any important items, wipe up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn 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.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Whitford 24 hour plumbers understand that a blocked pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing immediately. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the bathroom sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Whitford plumbers will quickly locate the issue and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can not get the obstruction completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to get you through 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. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Want a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Have a few of dishes to deal with? It is difficult to have a good wash when the water is not hot.

If the hot water is not hot enough, you need it to be fixed as fast as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can quickly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired promptly, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Whitford emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If your whole hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

Large and little, hidden subterranean or in the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your home are a unseen but important part of daily activities. They bring fresh water to your abode, and take dirty water and sewage out.

Normally we do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired without delay, to prevent damage to your house, furnishings and health.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to be there right away, so contact our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did the pipe fail?

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

When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if required to check for other issues.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a problem tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up broken?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a major annoyance. Something that can go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the wee hours, ruining your shuteye.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vehicles are fully equipped with parts and have a modest choice of new taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we do not have what you require, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we locate what you need.

From large to small, our Whitford emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of string of some kind, and tie it around the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and dribble off quietly.
