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 water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any important items close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a container 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Solved

We realise a obstructed drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our team of emergency plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.

A blocked drain is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the laundry sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our urgent Cockle Bay plumbers will quickly identify the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to keep you going 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 and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a pile of of dishes to take care of? It is awkward to have a proper wash up when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. Our team will be there swiftly to diagnose the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Did you know about 30% of the average household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can 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 hurt your wallet, get them resolved promptly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Cockle Bay emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is 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 cylinder is not fixable, our helpful team can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, we can arrange for repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

Big or little, buried in the ground or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your home are a hidden but indispensible part of daily activities. They carry fresh water to your house, and take unclean water and sewage out.

Often, people never even think about their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is usually a major issue that needs to be sorted out urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be there right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. They may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean seals. Or there may be an issue with how they were installed to begin with.

Our urgent plumbers can identify and fix the damaged pipes or leaks rapidly and expertly.

All Taps Handled

Tapware Problems Fixed

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

Many our clientelle over the years have mentioned how irritating it is to have a dripping or defective tap. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s reverberating throughout the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a major problem.

It is not only irritating drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

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

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too big or minor for our Cockle Bay plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, the team also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.

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

If it’s not aggravating enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Alternatively knot some string around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the base of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
