Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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 or 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 depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important things, clean up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You should also 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.

It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Urgent Plumber Standing By

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Thornbury after hours plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to as soon as possible. That’s why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

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

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our after hours Thornbury plumbers will quickly identify the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require available to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary 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.

Do not let clogged pipes ruin your day. Ring our after hours Thornbury emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We often don’t realise how much you rely on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really need a wash? Need to deal with a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s lukewarm.

When the hot water is not hot enough, you want it to be fixed quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Did you know around 30% of your home electricity bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water woes harm your wallet, get them fixed promptly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Thornbury urgent plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. 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 existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly plumbers can help in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

From the small clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even think of them until there’s an issue.

Normally, people barely even think about them until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a serious issue that needs to be sorted immediately before your home, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers right away. We are waiting to help Thornbury residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you reside in an older house, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a newer residence, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our after hours plumbers will identify and fix the burst pipes or leaks promptly and efficiently.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Leaks Solved

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

Many customers over the years have mentioned how vexing it can be to have a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is echoing throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a serious problem.

It isn’t just frustrating drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we do not have the tap you need, we can install a temporary faucet until we find what you need.

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

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

Find a length of string of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and flow off quietly.
