When a leak starts spouting, or a drain is blocked, or the hot water simply is not, the last thing you need is to have to wait for a plumber to arrive. In an urgent plumbing situation, frequently the longer you wait, the worse things get.

What do you do when a plumbing emergency strikes? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if needed turn the electricity off at the breaker box.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to locate the water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as we can to save the day.
While waiting, clear away any important possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
The primary isolating valve will normally be on the boundary of the property near the road. It is usually set in the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.
It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
We know a clogged drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of on call plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.
Blocked drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unblocked.
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.
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 will temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.
If you have a plunger you can attempt to break up the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please don't use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage the pipes.
Don’t let a clogged pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Got a pile of of dishes to take care of? It is hard to have a good clean up when the water is lukewarm.
When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it remedied fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it repaired fast so your life can get back to normal.
Did you know about 30% of your household power bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water woes empty your pocket, get them fixed as soon as possible.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Strathmore on call plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your old hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our professional team can help in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our team can organise an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
The pipes in your house are a generally unseen but significant part of your daily activities. Large and little, under the ground, in the walls or the ceiling, they carry fresh water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.
Normally, people do not even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a serious issue that needs to be sorted out immediately before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.
When you locate a leak or burst pipe, phone our on call plumbers without delay. We are waiting to help Strathmore residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the property.
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and cracked. In a new home, there could be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will identify the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if required to check for other issues.
Do you own a busted faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?
We have been called to all sorts of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker at night when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a insignificant annoyance, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.
It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you require an entire replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert same day plumbers can efficiently identify the issue and resolve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.
From on call plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Strathmore plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, we can also provide a wide selection of additional plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?
If it’s not annoying enough to be worth fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
