FAQ: Emergency Plumber

What do I do when a plumbing calamity hits?

What should you do when you locate a plumbing emergency? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the power at the power box. Then, try to reduce any further leaking or flooding.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff valve to cut off all the water to the property.

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 save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important items close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

You may have been shown it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, usually under a blue or black cover.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Parkvale 24 hour plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a major health hazard that needs fixing asap. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

Clogged drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes unblocked.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your abode speedily to resolve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as possible.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

We endorse trying to clear simple clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the obstruction, we do not suggest chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and can cause more damage to the drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Why did the pipe fail?
