On Call 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.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you rapidly to get things sorted.

While you are waiting, remove any significant things close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, 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.

Blocked Drains Solved

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance fast. Our on call Fawkner plumbers know how disheartening and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

A obstructed pipe is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself 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 none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your home speedily to solve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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 drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Got some dishes to finish up? It is never opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is tepid.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very rapidly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Fawkner on call plumbers right away. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our reliable plumbers can help in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

The pipes in your house are a largely concealed but significant part of your everyday life. Big or small, in the earth, within the wall or the ceiling, they carry clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your possessions and even your health.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our on call plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to help Fawkner residents right now. Whilst waiting for us to get there, it may be useful to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have frozen and burst. In a recently built residence, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our urgent plumber is present, they will identify the issues and fix them in a expeitious and professional manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a troublesome faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. Something that might go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos at 2am, ruining your deams.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you need an entire replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert urgent plumbers will speedily diagnose the cause and remedy it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From on call plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our Fawkner plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, the team also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

If it is not aggravating enough to need repairing right now, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to diminish the noise. Alternatively tie a piece of twine around the tap spout long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
