Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Urgent Plumber

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 can’t locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things from the area, and mop up any water or put a container 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our East Melbourne on call plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a major health risk that needs attending to asap. That’s why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

A clogged drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our on call East Melbourne plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the problem to minimise further damage and get back 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 drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately need a hot shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Have a few dishes to finish off? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it fixed fast so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can quickly send the power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed speedily, the cost will become more expensive by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our East Melbourne urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder is not repairable, our reliable plumbers can assist in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even think of them until there’s a problem.

Most of the time you barely even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly you’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired without delay, to minimise damage to your home, furnishings and well-being.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. We are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they arrive, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to prevent yet more leaking.

Why did the pipe fail?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you reside in a very cold location, they might have iced up and split. They may just be old and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots may invade subterranean connections.

Once our on call plumber arrives, they can isolate the problems and repair them in a rapid and professional manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a defective faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. Something that might go unheard in the hubbub of daily life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the wee hours, disturbing your shuteye.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down 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 just want a washer, or a whole new faucet, our on call plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are fully equipped with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have what you need, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we track down what you want.

From large to small, our East Melbourne urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and general plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

If the drip is not annoying enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can put a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
