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 there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water valve for your home. If you are unable to find the tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important things, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch any drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Somerville after hours plumbers know that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs attending to asap. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

A blocked pipe is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our after hours Somerville plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Got some of dishes to take care of? It is difficult to have a good clean up when the water is not hot.

When the hot water has let you down, give us a ring. We will be there promptly to figure out the problem and resolve it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly put the power 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 fixed as soon as possible, it will become more expensive by the day.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Somerville urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 your old hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly team can help in finding the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even think of them until there is an issue.

Ususally you barely even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be resolved without delay, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so contact us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older house, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have iced up and cracked. In a recently built house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean connections could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the after hours plumber is present, they will identify the issues and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a defective faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how frustrating it can be to have a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it is reverberating throughout the house like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a major issue.

Not only can it keep the household 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 increase further, or possibly cause damage to your home, ring our after hours plumber now.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire new tap, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vans are fully equipped with parts and have a modest selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we don’t have the faucet you want, our plumber can install a temporary tap until we locate the style you want.

As well as providing Somerville with urgent plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or minor.

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

If it is not bad enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot some string around the tap spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
