Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Emergency Plumbers: 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 service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start mopping up any water, place a container to catch any drips, and remove significant possessions from the area. If the property 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Blocked Drains Fixed

We realise a obstructed pipe can be a major problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes unblocked.

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our on call Cockle Bay plumbers will quickly locate the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the issue to prevent further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.

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 clogged drains ruin your day. Call our on call Cockle Bay emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We tend to don’t think about how heavily you count upon easy quick hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a shower? Time to deal with a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again quickly so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very swiftly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Cockle Bay emergency plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not able to be fixed, our friendly plumbers can help pick the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can organise repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

The pipes in your home are a generally concealed but very important part of your everyday life. Big and little, in the earth, within the walls or the roof, they carry clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally we barely even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden you’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed immediately, to prevent damage to your home, belongings and well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to be there right away, so contact our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a new home, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if required to check for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Leaks Resolved

Do you have a problematic tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just broken?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping faucet can be a serious aggravation. Something that might go unnoticed in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, destroying your deams.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you want a whole new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers can efficiently locate the problem and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Cockle Bay with emergency plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or too small.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

If the drip is not annoying enough to be worth fixing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the noise. Or tie a piece of twine around the tap spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
