I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What should you do when you find a plumbing catastrophe? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the switchboard. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
Many appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to cut off all water to the property.
Once that’s done, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to get things sorted.
While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any important things, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help, I do not know where the main water shutoff valve is!
You may have been shown the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is located on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.
It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Fitzroy North 24 hour plumbers know that a clogged pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to right away. That is why we provide our emergency plumbing service.
A clogged pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it with a plunger. But if you can not, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Regardless of whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.
In the rare instance that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we come back.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you've got a plunger, it's worth trying to clear a clog yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they seldom work well and can cause damage to your pipes.
Don’t let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Call our on call Fitzroy North emergency plumbers now!
We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Have a pile of of dishes to finish up? It’s difficult to have a good clean up when the water is lukewarm.
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 barely warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it sorted quickly so your life can get back to normal.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very swiftly.
When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Fitzroy North emergency plumbers right away. We will get the hot water working again promptly. 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 you do need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, requirements and location. If the entire hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.
Large and little, buried under the ground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your residence are a concealed but key part of daily activities. They carry clean water to your abode, and take used water and sewage out.
Usually, people do not even think about their existence unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it’s a major problem that needs to be sorted immediately before the building, your possessions or even your health are damaged or ruined.
When you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to assist Fitzroy North residents right away. While you are waiting for us to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the property.
Why did my pipe start leaking?
Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. The pipes may simply be old and worn out. Or they could have iced up in very frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots could have forced open subterranean seals. Or there might be a problem with how they were installed in the first place.
When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will identify the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipework if advised to look for other problems.
Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether defective?
We have been called to a range of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential annoyance, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.
It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
Whether you simply want a washer, or a whole new faucet, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have the faucet you need, we can put in an interim tap until we track down what you desire.
As well as serving Fitzroy North with emergency plumbing of all types, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too big or too small.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?
Usually, a dripping tap 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 on the spot for a very acceptable outlay.
