Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so turn the power off at the switchboard if needed first.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there promptly to resolve the issue.
In the meantime, begin mopping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and remove valuable items from the area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
You may know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is located on the property perimeter near the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Fawkner emergency plumbers realise that a blocked pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing asap. That’s why we provide our after hours plumbing service.
Blocked pipes can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes unblocked.
Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our 24 hour Fawkner plumbers will quickly identify the issue and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
We recommend trying to clear minor obstructions using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it doesn't clear the clog, we do not suggest chemicals as they rarely work well, and can cause more damage to the pipes.
Don’t let a obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Want a good soak to defrost after a wintery day? Have a few of dishes to finish off? It’s awkward to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.
When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it sorted asap so your life can get back to normal.
Did you know about 30% of your home electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water catastrophies damage your pocket, get them resolved quickly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Fawkner after hours plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If you find 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 cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is tired and worn out, we can schedule improvements at a time that works for you as well.
Big or little, buried in the earth or within the floor, wall or roof, the pipes in your house are a hidden but indispensible part of your daily activities. They bring fresh water to your residence, and transfer used water and sewage out.
Often, people don’t even remember them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is usually a serious problem that must be fixed urgently before the building, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be with you quickly. We’re ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce yet more leaking.
How did my pipe start leaking?
Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a range of reasons. They might simply be old and dilapidated. Or they could have iced up in very frigid weather and split. Tree roots may have grown into underground pipes. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were set up in the first place.
Our same day plumbers will diagnose and repair the broken pipes or leaks speedily and cleanly.
Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether broken?
We’ve seen a range of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a small 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 major plumbing emergency.
It is not only vexing drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire new faucet, our emergency plumbers have got what you require. All the vehicles are fully equipped with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we do not have what you require, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we locate what you desire.
As well as providing Fawkner with after hours plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or little.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
If it’s not annoying enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
