FAQ Urgent Plumbers

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 cannot find the main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to solve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start cleaning up any water, place a container to catch drips, and clear away significant items 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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help straight away. Our urgent Thornbury plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible however, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Thornbury plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to get you through until we return.

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 System Problems

Had a hard day at work and badly want a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Have a sink-full of dishes to finish off? It’s never handy to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is barely warm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted asap so your life can get back to normal.

Did you know about 30% of the average household electricity bill is used on hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water calamities harm your wallet, get them fixed promptly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Thornbury urgent plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your existing hot water cylinder is not repairable, our professional team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our plumbers can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

The pipes in your house are a largely unseen but important part of daily activities. Big and little, in the garden, within the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally you barely even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly you’re standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved without delay, to minimise damage to your house, furnishings and well-being.

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

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. They may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have frozen in very cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have grown into underground connections. Or there might be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other damage.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Issues Solved

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

We have been called to all sorts of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at 2am when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a inconsequential aggravation, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Do not let the bills rise even more, or possibly cause damage to your house, get hold of our 24 hour plumber right away.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to stop your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our Thornbury urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of emergency and general plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth fixing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Or tie a length of string around the faucet spout long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
