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 the water off at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is done, give our team a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be there promptly to get things sorted.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important items, clean up any water, and put a bucket to catch 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your pipes are overflowing, you need help quickly. Our urgent South Melbourne plumbers know how disheartening and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll arrive at your home speedily to solve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 blocked pipes ruin your day. Call our after hours South Melbourne emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

It’s been a hard day at work and badly require a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have a pile of dishes to deal with? It’s seldom handy to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is cold.

If the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it to be sorted as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very rapidly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our South Melbourne urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll 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 switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder isn’t repairable, our helpful team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

Large and little, hidden in the earth or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your home are a unseen but vital part of your everyday life. They bring clean water to your home, and transfer used water and sewage away.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it repaired immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your contents and even your well-being.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We are waiting to answer night or day. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce yet more damage.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older home, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have iced up and burst. In a newer home, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the after hours plumber arrives, they can locate the issues and repair them in a rapid and expert manner.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to remedy your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not annoying enough to need fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the noise. Alternatively tie a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
