Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

Urgent 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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to fix the leak.

In the meantime, start mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important things from the affected area. If the house 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We understand a blocked pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

A blocked drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether there is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are concluded.

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 a clogged drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Time to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Got some of dishes to deal with? It’s a pain to have a good clean up when the water is not hot.

When the hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. We will be there swiftly to identify the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly push the power bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed speedily, it will become more expensive by the day.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Cockle Bay urgent plumbers immediately. 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 turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your existing hot water cylinder is not repairable, our helpful plumbers can assist in identifying the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

From the small fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there is an issue.

Normally, you do not even think about their existence until something goes wrong. But when it does, it is a significant problem that needs to be sorted out immediately before your home, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are ready to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent yet more damage.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. The pipes might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in extremely cold weather and split. Tree roots may have invaded underground seals. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

Our same day plumbers will identify and repair your broken pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Resolved

Do you have a troublesome tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a major vexation. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums at 2am, destroying your shuteye.

It’s not only irritating drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to remedy your leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Cockle Bay urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

If it is not aggravating enough to need repairing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively tie a length of string around the tap aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
