What do I do when a plumbing emergency strikes?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so switch the electricity off at the switchboard if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate a main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to fix the leak.
In the meantime, start cleaning up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important items from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!
The main shutoff valve is generally positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, normally under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning this off can protect your residence from increasing leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your drains are overflowing, you want help asap. Our urgent Princes Hill plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.
Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unclogged.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your abode speedily to solve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
We endorse trying to clear minor obstructions using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the clog, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom do a good job, and can even cause more damage to the pipes.
Don’t let a obstructed drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Time to put grubby kids in the shower? Need a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a pile of of dishes to finish up? It’s a pain to have a proper wash up when the water is lukewarm.
When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again fast so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very rapidly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Princes Hill urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our friendly team can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is old and deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule improvements at a time that works for you as well.
From the small clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is an issue.
Once there is a problem though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is worrying stuff, and you want it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your residence, your possessions and even your well-being.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We are waiting to answer night or day. Before they arrive, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent yet more leaking.
How did the pipe start leaking?
There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you reside in a very cold climate, they might have frozen and split. They may just be aged and dilapidated. The pipes may not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots may invade underground pipes.
When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will identify the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if required to look for other problems.
Do you have a busted tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?
We’ve seen an assortment of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant niggle, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.
It is not only frustrating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, 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 need a whole new faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers can efficiently diagnose the cause and solve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or minor for our Princes Hill plumbers. Not only can we sort out leaking taps, the team also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.
Why is my tap dripping?
If it is not annoying enough to warrant repairing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Or tie a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
