Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency 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 still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate the water valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to solve the issue.

While you wait, begin wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and remove significant things from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, then 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 taps as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We understand a obstructed pipe can be a major problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our team of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it is the bathroom sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our after hours Cockle Bay plumbers will quickly locate the issue and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is required 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 blocked pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately need a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have a few dishes to take care of? It’s rarely handy to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is tepid.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it repaired quickly. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very rapidly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Cockle Bay emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch 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, needs and location. If the whole hot water system requires upgrading, we can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Emergency Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is an issue.

Normally you barely even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved asap, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and well-being.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers as soon as possible. We are waiting to help Cockle Bay residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the home.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. They may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in extremely cold weather and cracked. Tree roots could have invaded subterranean pipes. Or there could be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

Once the after hours plumber arrives, they will locate the problems and fix them in a quick and expert manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether broken?

We have seen a range of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like elephants tapdancing in the small hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential aggravation, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just vexing drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to resolve that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Cockle Bay with emergency plumbing of all kinds, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or minor.

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

Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can frequently replace worn out parts right then and there for a very acceptable outlay.
