I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so switch the electricity off at the power panel if needed first.
If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest location and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to resolve the problem.
While you are waiting, remove any significant items close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.
I don’t know where the main water tap is!
You might have been shown it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is generally positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance straight away. Our on call Doreen plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging clogged pipes can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.
A blocked pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!
Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our after hours Doreen plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you have a plunger handy you can attempt to clear the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please do not use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage the pipes.
Do not let a clogged pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
You generally do not think about how much we rely on easy quick hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really want a wash? Need to deal with some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and find it’s lukewarm.
When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.
Hot water leaks can rapidly push the power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted asap, the cost will become more costly by the day.
When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Doreen on call plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 your cylinder isn’t repairable, our helpful team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and location. If your whole system is old and deteriorating, our plumbers can organise improvements at a time that suits you as well.
Large or small, hidden in the earth or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a unseen but indispensible part of daily life. They bring fresh water to your residence, and remove dirty water and sewage away.
Normally you don’t even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you are standing in a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed without delay, to minimise damage to your residence, possessions and health.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our on call plumbers will be with you rapidly. We’re waiting to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise further damage.
Why did the pipe burst?
There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps might break down. If you live in a very cold climate, they may have frozen and burst. They might just be old and worn out. The pipes may not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots can force open subterranean joins.
When the 24 hour plumber is present, they can locate the issues and fix them in a quick and expert manner.
Do you own a busted tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?
A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or busted tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is reverberating around the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a serious problem.
Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, call our team now.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to stop that leak. The team carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.
As well as serving Doreen with on call plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or minor.
Why is my tap dripping?
Find a piece of twine of some type, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and flow off quietly.
