Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Emergency Plumbers

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 still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest location or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give us a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there shortly to fix the leak.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any important things, clean up any water, and put a container to catch drips. You should also turn 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.

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

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance quickly. Our emergency Fitzroy plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

A clogged drain is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour Fitzroy plumbers will quickly identify the issue and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are finished.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

You often do not think about how heavily we depend upon easy fast hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really need a shower? Want to take care of a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s cold.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it sorted quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it remedied as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can swiftly put the power bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted as soon as possible, the cost will become more costly by the day.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Fitzroy emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our helpful team can assist in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our team can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your house are a largely hidden but very important part of everyday activities. Large or little, under the ground, in the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Often, we never even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it is generally a serious problem that needs to be resolved urgently before your home, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they arrive, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to prevent further flooding.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have iced up and ruptured. In a recently built residence, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our 24 hour plumbers can identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks speedily and cleanly.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tapware Leaks Solved

Do you live with a troublesome faucet? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

We have been called to a range of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial irritant, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to remedy your leak. The team carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Fitzroy with emergency plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too extensive or too small.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

Find a length of string of some type, and knot it onto the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and trickle off quietly.
