Emergency Plumber 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 still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to solve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important things, mop up any water, and put a bucket to catch any drips. You also should 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.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our East Melbourne on call plumbers know that a blocked drain can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing as soon as possible. That’s why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

Whether it is the bathroom sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our on call East Melbourne plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

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

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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We usually don’t realise how much you rely on easy fast hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really want a wash? Time to finish off a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and find it’s barely warm.

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

Hot water leaks can swiftly push the 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 repaired promptly, the cost will become more expensive by the day.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our East Melbourne emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t fixable, our helpful team can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is old and deteriorating, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there’s an issue.

Most of the time we do not even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired without delay, to minimise damage to your residence, possessions and well-being.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be with you quickly. We are waiting to answer night or day. Before they arrive, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce further flooding.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. They might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in extremely frigid weather and burst. Tree roots could have invaded subterranean connections. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Our on call plumbers can diagnose and fix your broken pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Problems Resolved

Do you have a irksome faucet? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?

We’ve seen an assortment of tap issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a trivial annoyance, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

Not only can it keep the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not let the bills rise higher, or maybe even cause damage to your home, contact our on call plumber now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to fix your leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing East Melbourne with emergency plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or minor.

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

If it is not aggravating enough to be worth repairing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie some twine around the tap aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
