Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency Plumber

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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important items from the area, and clean up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also 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 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We realise a obstructed drain can be a major emergency. Whether it is the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked drains can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our same day Fawkner plumbers will quickly identify the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 clogged drains ruin your day. Ring our same day Fawkner emergency plumbers now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a hot shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have a pile of dishes to deal with? It’s never opportune to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is lukewarm.

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

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Fawkner emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our friendly plumbers can assist in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

Large and small, hidden in the earth or within the floor, wall or roof, the pipes in your home are a concealed but indispensible part of your daily life. They bring fresh water to your house, and transfer dirty water and sewage out.

Usually, you never even think about them until something goes wrong. But when it does, it is generally a serious problem that must be sorted out urgently before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers asap. Our team are waiting to help Fawkner residents right now. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in extremely frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have invaded subterranean seals. Or there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

When our same day plumber arrives, they will isolate the issues and fix them in a expeitious and expert manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a irksome faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright busted?

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or defective tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is reverberating around your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a serious issue.

It’s not only frustrating drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, 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 need in the vans to stop your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

From emergency plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Fawkner plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of tap, we can frequently replace worn out parts right then and there for a very modest expenditure.
