Frequently Asked Questions - Important

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 still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be there promptly to fix the leak.

While you are waiting, clear away any important possessions from the area, and clean up any water or position a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

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.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want help right now. Our urgent Thornbury plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes cleared.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your home quickly to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are completed.

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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

Had a hard day at work and badly want a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Have a few dishes to deal with? It’s rarely handy to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted fast so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly push your power bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired asap, the cost will become more costly by the day.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Thornbury urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t repairable, our friendly plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is old and deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

From the little clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there’s a problem.

Usually, we barely even recall them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s usually a significant issue that must be fixed immediately before the building, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

Our urgent plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so call us as soon as you locate 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 fail?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have iced up and ruptured. In a new residence, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our same day plumbers will identify and fix the damaged pipes or leaks speedily and expertly.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Resolved

Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether busted?

A lot of clients over the years have told us how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it’s resounding around the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it’s a serious problem.

Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even more, or possibly cause damage to your home, call our same day plumber straight away.

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

From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Thornbury plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we can also offer a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

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

If it is not bad enough to need repairing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the noise. Or knot a piece of twine around the faucet aerator long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
