Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ - Urgent Plumber

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 off the water at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important items from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you 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 alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We know a blocked drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is never a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

A obstructed pipe is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it is the ensuite sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our same day Thornbury plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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 drains ruin your day. Call our same day Thornbury emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

You regularly don’t realise how heavily you depend on easy quick hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garden and really need a shower? Time to finish off a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s barely warm.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it to be working again asap. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.

Did you know around 30% of the average household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your house and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water woes hurt your pocket, get them fixed promptly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Thornbury urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a lot 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 fixable, our reliable plumbers can help in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, we can schedule improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the little clean water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there is a problem.

Normally we do not even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly you’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired asap, to prevent damage to your home, belongings and health.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. We are ready to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce further leaking.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. They may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in extremely cold weather and cracked. Tree roots may have forced open underground joints. Or there could be an issue with how they were installed to begin with.

Once our same day plumber arrives, they can isolate the problems and repair them in a rapid and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to have a dripping or busted tap. You might not even be aware of the drip during the day, but at night when it’s reverberating throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a sigificant problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our same day plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are well equipped with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we don’t have the tap you want, we can install an interim faucet until we locate the style you want.

As well as providing Thornbury with urgent plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or little.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of tap, we can often replace worn out parts on the spot for a very modest outlay.
