Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumbers - FAQ

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.

A lot of 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 can’t find a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to cut off all water to the house.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While waiting, remove any significant items close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water 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 Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you need help quickly. Our emergency South Melbourne plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it using a plunger. But if you can not, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your abode quickly to resolve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers return.

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 pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

You generally don’t think about how heavily you depend on easy fast hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really need a shower? Want to finish off a pile 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 fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it repaired asap so your life can get back to normal.

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

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

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and location. If the entire hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can organise to do that in a timely manner as well.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you reside in a cold climate, the pipes may have frozen and ruptured. They may simply be old and dilapidated. They may not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots may invade underground pipes.

When our after hours plumber arrives, they can locate the problems and repair them in a rapid and professional manner.

Tap Leaks Fixed

Do you have a troublesome tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain busted?

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vehicles are fully equipped with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
