I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so turn the electricity off at the power box if needed first.
Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to cut off all the water to the residence.
Once that is done, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.
While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items, wipe up any water, and position a bucket to catch any drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The primary isolating valve is normally on the border of your property near the road. It is typically set into the ground below a blue or black plastic cover.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance straight away. Our 24 hour Fawkner plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
Clogged drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll arrive at your home rapidly to solve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to tide you over until we come back.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
We recommend trying to clear minor obstructions using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it does not clear the blockage, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and can cause more damage to the pipes.
Don’t let blocked drains ruin your day. Call our after hours Fawkner emergency plumbing team now!
We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a wintery day? Have a few of dishes to take care of? It’s difficult to have a good wash up when the water is cold.
When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it sorted as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Hot water leaks can quickly push your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed as fast as possible, it will become more costly by the hour.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Fawkner 24 hour plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our professional plumbers can help in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our team can arrange improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
Big and small, hidden underground or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a unseen but vital part of daily activities. They carry clean water to your home, and transfer used water and sewage away.
Ususally we never even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly you are standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be resolved asap, to prevent damage to your home, furnishings and well-being.
As soon as a leak is found, give our team a call, and our 24 hour plumbers will be on their way quickly. We are waiting to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to reduce further leaking.
Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. The pipes may simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in extremely cold weather and cracked. Tree roots might have grown into underground seals. Or there may be an issue with how the pipes were set up in the first place.
When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will diagnose the issue and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipes if advised to check for other issues.
Do you own a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply defective?
We have been called to an assortment of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor aggravation, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.
It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the 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.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to halt your leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
As well as serving Fawkner with 24 hour plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or too small.
Why is my faucet dripping?
Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very modest outlay.
