Frequently Asked Questions - Important

On Call 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to stop all the water to your property.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They will be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove important things from the affected area. If the house 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.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance straight away. Our on call Cockle Bay plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

A obstructed pipe is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your home quickly to solve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to prevent further damage and return with what is required 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.

Do not let clogged drains ruin your day. Ring our after hours Cockle Bay emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

It’s been a hard day at work and badly need a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have some dishes to finish up? It’s seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is tepid.

When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it repaired promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it remedied quickly so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can quickly push your power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired speedily, the cost can become more costly by the day.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Cockle Bay on call plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. 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 cylinder is not fixable, our helpful plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is aged and worn out, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

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

Normally you barely even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out asap, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and health.

Our on call plumbers are prepared to be there right away, so call us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for a range of reasons. They might simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in extremely frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots might have grown into underground connections. Or there might be a problem with how they were installed in the first place.

When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will diagnose the problem and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other problems.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a defective tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how vexing it is to have a dripping or broken tap. You may not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s resounding throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks can run up the 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 little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our after hours plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have the tap you require, our plumber can install a temporary tap until we track down the style you want.

From on call plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too extensive or minor for our Cockle Bay plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

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

If it’s not annoying enough to need repairing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Or knot a length of string around the faucet spout long enough to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
