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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating valve to cut off all water to your property.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start cleaning up any water, position a container to catch any drips, and remove important things from the area. If the mains 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!

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.

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

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you need help fast. Our urgent Somerton plumbers know how frustrating and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our on call Somerton plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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 send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Got some of dishes to finish off? It’s a pain to have a good wash up when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. We’ll be there swiftly to identify the problem and fix it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Somerton urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 your old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful team can help in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there’s a problem.

Usually, people barely even remember their existence unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it’s a significant problem that needs to be sorted out urgently before your house, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is found, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. We’re waiting to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise yet more damage.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a new house, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean joins may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our on call plumber will identify the issue and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Problems Solved

Do you own a busted faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. Something that might go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, disturbing your sleep.

As well as keeping the household awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is hot water. Do not let the bills rise more, or maybe even cause damage to your residence, contact our on call plumber right away.

Whether you require an entire replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist on call plumbers will speedily diagnose the problem and resolve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Somerton with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or too small.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and tie it around the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
