What do I do when a plumbing emergency occurrs?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the electricity at the power box. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to cut off all water to the home.
Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to solve the issue.
While you are waiting, remove any significant things from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you have 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!
The main shutoff valve is generally found on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting this off can save your property from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.
Our Fawkner urgent plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a major health risk that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we offer our emergency plumbing service.
A obstructed drain is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to prevent further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you have a plunger handy you can try to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please do not use chemicals as they seldom do the job properly and the chemicals can damage the pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

How did the pipe burst?
There are many reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you live in a cold region, the pipes may have frozen and burst. They might just be old and worn out. They might not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots can invade underground joins.
When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will locate the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other damage.
Do you live with a problem faucet? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright busted?

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.
Whether you just want a washer, or a whole new faucet, our after hours plumbers have got what you need.

Why is my tap dripping?
