I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What do you do when a plumbing disaster arises? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the power off on the power panel.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you are unable to find the tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.
While you wait, start mopping up any water, place a container to catch drips, and clear away valuable things from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
You might know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is found on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
Our South Melbourne after hours plumbers understand that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs attending to right away. That is why we have our 24 hour plumbing service.
Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unclogged.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your abode speedily to solve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the problem to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
We suggest trying to clear simple blockages with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it does not clear the clog, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom do a good job, and may even cause more damage to your drains.
Do not let blocked drains ruin your day. Call our same day South Melbourne emergency plumbing team now!
You generally don’t think about how frequently you rely upon effortless fast hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really need a wash? Need to take care of a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s lukewarm.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it repaired promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it remedied as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very swiftly.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our South Melbourne 24 hour plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the old hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly plumbers can help in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our team can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.
The pipes in your home are a normally hidden but very important part of daily life. Big or little, in the earth, in the wall or the ceiling, they bring clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.
Once there is an issue though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your belongings and even your health.
As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our 24 hour plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to assist South Melbourne residents right away. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.
How did the pipe fail?
Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and ruptured. In a recently built house, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When the after hours plumber is present, they can isolate the problems and repair them in a rapid and professional manner.
Do you have a broken tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?
We’ve been called to all sorts of tap issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at 2am when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a insignificant niggle, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.
It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks can drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
Whether you just want a washer, or an entire new faucet, our same day plumbers have got what you need. All the vans are well stocked with parts and carry a modest choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have what you require, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we find what you desire.
From 24 hour plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our South Melbourne plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, the team also offer a wide selection of other plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
If the drip is not bad enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Or tie some twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
