Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

On Call Plumbers - 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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be at your place as soon as possible to save the day.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things, mop up any water, and put a bucket to catch any 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Issues

We know a clogged pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is seldom a good thing. That is why our team of on call plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our after hours Somerville plumbers will quickly locate the problem and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.

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 obstructed 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 Issues

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.

If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it to be remedied as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can swiftly send the power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired asap, the cost can become more costly by the day.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Somerville on call plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water working 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 replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best option for your budget, needs and area. If your entire hot water system requires improvements, we can organise to do that in a opportune manner as well.

On Call Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there’s a problem.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it repaired asap to prevent damage to your residence, your furnishings and even your health.

As soon as a leak is found, give us a ring, and our on call plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise further damage.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you own an older residence, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and split. In a recently built house, there could be an issue with how they were installed. Underground pipes could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will locate the problem and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Tap Problems Fixed

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

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a serious vexation. Something that can go unnoticed in the hubbub of every day life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, ruining your sleep.

It is not only vexing drips though. Leaks may push up the 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 little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you require a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers will quickly find the cause and remedy it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Somerville with on call plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.

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

Find a length of twine of some type, and tie it onto the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and flow off quietly.
