Urgent 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 there is water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find the tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to fix the leak.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin cleaning up any water, position a container to catch any drips, and clear away significant things 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 called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

We realise a clogged drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That’s why our team of urgent plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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 now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately require a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have a pile of dishes to deal with? It’s never convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it sorted promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your pocket very quickly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Cockle Bay urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system requires upgrading, we can schedule to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is an issue.

Often, people don’t even remember them unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it’s generally a significant problem that must be sorted urgently before your home, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers without delay. Our team are waiting to assist Cockle Bay residents right now. Whilst waiting for us to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the property.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for various reasons. They may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in extremely wintery weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have invaded subterranean connections. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will diagnose the problem and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other damage.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?

We have seen a range of tap issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor niggle, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just irritating drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply want a washer, or a whole new faucet, our after hours plumbers have got what you need. All our vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we do not have the tap you need, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we track down the style you want.

As well as providing Cockle Bay with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or small.

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 knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the twine and flow off quietly.
