Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Urgent Plumber

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 tap to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items from the area, and mop up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, 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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you need help asap. Our urgent Botany Downs plumbers know how disheartening and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

A blocked drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour Botany Downs plumbers will quickly identify the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to keep you going until our plumbers come back.

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 clogged drain ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Have a few of dishes to deal with? It is awkward to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

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

Hot water leaks can quickly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as soon as possible, the cost will become more expensive by the day.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Botany Downs urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and area. If your entire hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can schedule to do that in a opportune fashion as well.

Urgent Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the little clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there is an issue.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it repaired as soon as possible to prevent damage to your residence, your possessions and even your health.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be with you rapidly. Our team are ready to take your call night or day. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to prevent yet more leaking.

How did my pipe start leaking?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you live in a extremely cold climate, the pipes may have frozen and burst. They could just be aged and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots can grow into subterranean connections.

When our 24 hour plumber arrives, they can isolate the problems and fix them in a quick and professional manner.

All Taps Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?

Many clients over the years have told us how aggravating it is to have a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is reverberating around your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a serious problem.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not 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 24 hour plumbers have got what you require. All our vehicles are well stocked with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have what you want, we can put in a temporary faucet until we track down the style you want.

As well as providing Botany Downs with urgent plumbing of all types, our team are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too great or little.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a length of string of some kind, and tie it around the tap aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and flow off quietly.
