Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent Plumbers: 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 there is water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any significant items, wipe up any water, and position 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 behind the toilet.

Urgent Plumber Ready

Blocked Drains Problems

Our South Melbourne on call plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health risk that needs attending to as soon as possible. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your abode rapidly to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

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 obstructed pipe get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water Leaks

We generally don’t realise how much you count upon effortless fast hot water until it is not there anymore. Just finished in the garden and really need a wash? Need to finish off a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s cold.

If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it to be repaired as fast as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can quickly identify the issue and get it fixed.

Did you know around thiry percent of the average household power bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water catastrophies damage your wallet, get them repaired speedily.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our South Melbourne urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

Big and small, buried in the ground or within the floor, walls or roof, the various pipes in your residence are a unseen but significant part of daily life. They bring clean water to your abode, and remove unclean water and sewage out.

Normally you barely even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed immediately, to minimise damage to your house, furnishings and health.

When you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers asap. We are waiting to help South Melbourne residents right away. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it may help to turn off the water to the property.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have iced up and burst. In a new house, there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will diagnose the issue and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Leaks Solved

Do you live with a irksome faucet? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up broken?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant annoyance. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, disturbing your sleep.

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

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole new tap, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have what you need, our plumber can put in a temporary faucet until we track down what you want.

As well as providing South Melbourne with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it’s not bad enough to warrant fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to minimise the noise. Alternatively tie some twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
