Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

On Call 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 water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. They will be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any important items, wipe up any water, and place a bucket to catch drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you need help straight away. Our on call South Melbourne plumbers know how disheartening and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

A obstructed pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself using a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

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 prevent further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.

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 get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately require a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have some dishes to finish off? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is barely warm.

When the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it to be sorted as fast as possible. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our South Melbourne on call plumbers right away. We will get your 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 the existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our friendly plumbers can assist in identifying the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our team can schedule improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Once there is an issue though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is worrying stuff, and you want it resolved asap to prevent damage to your house, your furnishings and even your well-being.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they may have frozen and cracked. In a new house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean junctions may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the same day plumber is present, they can isolate the problems and repair them in a rapid and expert manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Problems Fixed

Do you live with a problem faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

Many our clientelle over the years have told us how vexing it is to live with a dripping or busted tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is resounding throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a serious problem.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks can push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to remedy your leak. The team carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our South Melbourne on call plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a wide selection of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of tap, we can usually replace worn out parts right then and there for a very acceptable expenditure.
