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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff valve to cut off all water to the residence.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be at your home as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While waiting, remove any important things from the area, and clean up any water or place a bucket 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.

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

Emergency Plumber Ready

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance as soon as possible. Our emergency Thornbury plumbers know how disheartening and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Obestructed drains can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes 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 quickly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your home quickly to solve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve 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?

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 ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We regularly do not realise how much you depend upon effortless quick hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished in the garage and really need a shower? Want to finish off a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it fixed fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it hot again quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can swiftly put the power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted fast, the cost will become more expensive by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Thornbury emergency plumbers right away. We will get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and location. If the whole hot water system needs improvements, we can arrange to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

The pipes in your home are a largely unseen but vital part of your daily life. Large and small, underground, in the walls or the ceiling, they bring fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Ususally you do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and health.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to be there quickly, so call our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further damage by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. The pipes might simply be old and dilapidated. Or they could have frozen in extremely wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean pipes. Or there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Our on call plumbers will identify and repair the damaged pipes or leaks rapidly and expertly.

All Taps Covered

Tap Problems Resolved

Do you own a defective tap? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a major irritation. A little thing that may go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, ruining your deams.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call our team now.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire new faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have what you need, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we locate what you want.

From large to small, our Thornbury emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. 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 kind, and knot it onto the tap spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and dribble off quietly.
