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.

If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you wait, begin mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and remove important possessions from the area. If the mains water is turned off, 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.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We understand a blocked drain can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That’s why our team of on call plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our emergency Whitford plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

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 solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back 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 a obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We generally do not realise how frequently we rely upon easy fast hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Need to finish up a pile of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s tepid.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you need it to be hot again quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can rapidly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted quickly, it will become more expensive by the hour.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Whitford on call plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not fixable, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is old and deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange for upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

Large and small, buried under the ground or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your home are a hidden but indispensible part of everyday life. They carry clean water to your abode, and take dirty water and sewage out.

Normally we never even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be resolved without delay, to minimise damage to your home, possessions and well-being.

Our on call plumbers are prepared to be on the scene quickly, so ring our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have iced up and burst. In a newer home, there could be an issue with how they were installed. Underground seals could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our emergency plumber will locate the issue and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if required to look for other damage.

All Tapware Covered

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you live with a irksome tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

Many customers over the years have told us how irritating it is to live with a dripping or defective tap. You may not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is reverberating around the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant issue.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call our team now.

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our emergency plumbers have got what you require. All the vans are well equipped with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have the faucet you want, we can put in an interim faucet until we track down what you want.

From on call plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Whitford plumbers. Not only can we sort out leaking taps, the team also provide a wide range of other plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If the drip is not bad enough to warrant repairing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to diminish the noise. Or knot a piece of twine around the tap aerator sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
