FAQ On Call Plumbers

Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!

Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the power off at the power panel if needed first.

If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things from the area, and mop up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

The main shutoff valve is located on the property perimeter close to the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can protect your home from more flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you've got a plunger, it is a good idea to try to unblock the clog yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely work well and can damage your pipes.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

Large and small, hidden under the ground or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your home are a concealed but vital part of daily life. They carry clean water to your home, and transfer dirty water and sewage out.

Normally, you do not even recall them until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is generally a significant problem that must be fixed urgently before your house, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

Our on call plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further damage by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. The pipes might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in extremely cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots may have invaded subterranean connections. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were set up to begin with.

Once they arrive, our urgent plumber will diagnose the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if needed to look for other damage.

Tapware Problems Solved

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

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a serious annoyance. Something that can go unheard in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, destroying your shuteye.

It is not just frustrating drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you need an entire new faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers will rapidly diagnose the trouble and fix it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Thomastown with on call plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and dribble off quietly.
