Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Emergency Plumber: 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.

If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate the water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant possessions from the area, and wipe up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you 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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance quickly. Our emergency South Melbourne plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the drains unclogged.

Whether it is the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour South Melbourne plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

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

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.

Do not let a obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Time to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Got some of dishes to finish up? It is a pain to have a proper wash up when the water is not hot.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you need it remedied asap. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our South Melbourne emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best option for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do that in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

Large and little, hidden under the ground or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your residence are a hidden but significant part of your daily life. They bring clean water to your home, and take unclean water and sewage out.

As soon as you find an issue though, it is the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it resolved asap to prevent damage to your home, your belongings and even your health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re ready to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce further leaking.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for various reasons. They may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have iced up in very wintery weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have forced open underground pipes. Or there may be a problem with how they were installed in the first place.

When our 24 hour plumber arrives, they can locate the issues and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Leaks Fixed

Do you live with a problematic tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just broken?

We have been called to a range of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor aggravation, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.

It’s not only irritating drips though. Leaks can run up your 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 putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to stop that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our South Melbourne emergency plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a broad range of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

Find a piece of string of some type, and tie it onto the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and dribble off quietly.
