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 there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

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

In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and remove valuable possessions from the affected 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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Problems

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

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

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour South Melbourne plumbers will quickly identify the problem and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to minimise 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is difficult to have a good clean up when the water is cold.

When your hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. We will be there swiftly to figure out the problem and resolve it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the 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 about 30% of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your pocket very swiftly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our South Melbourne urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working 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 fixable, our professional team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our team can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

The pipes in your residence are a normally unseen but indispensible part of daily activities. Large or little, in the ground, within the walls or the roof or under the floor, they carry fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Most of the time we barely even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we are standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed asap, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and health.

Our urgent plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so call us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and burst. In a new home, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean junctions may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the 24 hour plumber arrives, they will identify the problems and repair them in a speedy and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Issues Resolved

Do you own a busted tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant aggravation. Something that can go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, destroying your shuteye.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole new faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are well stocked with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you want, our plumber can install a temporary tap until we track down what you desire.

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

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

Find a piece of string of some kind, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the twine and dribble off quietly.
