Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency 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 water still 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 home. If you’re unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

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

While you are waiting, clear away any significant possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or put 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 taps also.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance right now. Our emergency Whitford plumbers know how disheartening and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked drains can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes unblocked.

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our after hours Whitford plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until we return.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s hard to have a proper clean when the water is not hot.

When your hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a ring. Our team will be there promptly to figure out the issue and fix it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Did you know about thiry percent of your home electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your home and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water troubles hurt your pocket, get them repaired as soon as possible.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Whitford emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help in identifying the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, we can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

The pipes in your home are a normally unseen but important part of your daily life. Big and small, underground, within the walls or the roof or under the floor, they bring fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally we barely even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly you’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired immediately, to minimise damage to your home, possessions and health.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way quickly. We are waiting to answer any time. Before they arrive, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce yet more leaking.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a variety of reasons. They might simply be old and worn out. Or they could have frozen in very cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have grown into subterranean pipes. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Once the after hours plumber is present, they can identify the issues and fix them in a speedy and professional manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a serious irritation. A little thing that can go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, destroying your sleep.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, call us now.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole new tap, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vehicles are fully 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 faucet you want, we can install a temporary tap until we track down what you want.

From big to small, our Whitford emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it around the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and flow off quietly.
