I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the power off on the switchboard.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to find the water valve 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.
Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the issue.
While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important things close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.
Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!
You may have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is generally positioned on the property perimeter near the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
We know a clogged drain can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.
A clogged pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it yourself using a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether there is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.
With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
We suggest trying to clear minor blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not clear the clog, we do not recommend chemicals as they rarely work well, and may cause more damage to your pipes.
Do not let blocked drains ruin your day. Ring our urgent Essendon West emergency plumbers right away!
It’s been a hard day at work and badly require a hot shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have a pile of dishes to deal with? It’s rarely convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is tepid.
If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it hot again fast. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very swiftly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Essendon West emergency plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our reliable plumbers can help pick the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is old and worn out, we can organise upgrades at a time that suits you as well.
Big and small, hidden in the ground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a unseen but significant part of daily activities. They bring clean water to your home, and transfer dirty water and sewage away.
Ususally we do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we are looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired immediately, to minimise damage to your house, furnishings and health.
Our emergency plumbers are set to be there quickly, so ring our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.
How did the pipe start leaking?
Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a recently built house, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Underground joins might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Our after hours plumbers can identify and fix the damaged pipes or leaks promptly and efficiently.
Do you have a problem faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?
Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, destroying your deams.
As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills increase even further, or maybe even cause damage to your house, ring our urgent plumber straight away.
Whether you want an entire replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers will rapidly identify the issue and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too extensive or small for our Essendon West plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, the team can also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?
If the drip is not aggravating enough to be worth repairing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Alternatively knot some string around the faucet aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
