Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ - On Call 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.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

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

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items, wipe up any water, and put a bucket to catch drips. You also should 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Botany Downs same day plumbers understand that a clogged pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing asap. That is why we provide our on call plumbing service.

A blocked pipe is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it is the laundry sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our same day Botany Downs plumbers will quickly locate the issue and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can’t get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to tide you over until we return.

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 get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a good wash up when the water is cold.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it to be fixed speedily. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Botany Downs on call plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. 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 you do need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best option for your budget, requirements and area. If your whole hot water system needs improvements, we can schedule to do that in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there’s a problem.

Normally, you don’t even think about them until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is generally a significant issue that needs to be fixed urgently before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our on call plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to help Botany Downs residents right away. While you are waiting for us to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and cracked. In a new house, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the same day plumber arrives, they can identify the issues and fix them in a speedy and professional manner.

All Tapware Handled

Tap Problems Sorted

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

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a serious aggravation. Something that may go unnoticed in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the wee hours, destroying your deams.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to remedy that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Botany Downs with on call plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or small.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

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