Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent 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 there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once that is done, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important items from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve 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.

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

Blocked Drains Fixed

We realise a blocked drain can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is never a good thing. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need available to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are completed.

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

From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there’s a problem.

Ususally you never even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired asap, to prevent damage to your house, belongings and health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re ready to take your call night or day. Before they get there, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce yet more flooding.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a newer residence, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean connections could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the same day plumber arrives, they will identify the issues and fix them in a expeitious and expert manner.

Taps Not Working?

Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise higher, or maybe even cause damage to your house, ring our same day plumber right away.

Whether you want an entire new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert same day plumbers can rapidly diagnose the issue and remedy it. We even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

Why is my tap dripping?

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