Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

Urgent 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 still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things, wipe up any water, and place a container to catch any drips. You also should turn 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 is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

We understand a clogged drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That’s why our team of urgent plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

A obstructed pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

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

In the rare instance that we can’t get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to keep you going until we return.

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.

Do not let a clogged drain get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a pile of dishes to finish up? It is never convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is cold.

When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our East Melbourne urgent plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water working again promptly. If you find 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 cylinder is not able to be fixed, our professional team can help pick the best option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Big and small, hidden in the garden or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a unseen but important part of everyday life. They bring fresh water to your home, and take unclean water and sewage out.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your house, your contents and even your health.

When you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers without delay. Our team are waiting to help East Melbourne residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have frozen and cracked. In a recently built residence, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean pipes could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When our on call plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your house, call us now.

Whether you need an entire new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist on call plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and fix it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our East Melbourne urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a broad selection of emergency and general plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and flow off quietly.
