FAQ - Emergency Plumbers

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.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating valve to stop all the water to the property.

Once that is sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be there shortly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, remove any important items from the area, and mop up any water or put a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also 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, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We realise a clogged pipe can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home quickly to resolve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

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 warm up after a long cold day? Have a few of dishes to finish up? It is a pain to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted asap so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very rapidly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Wattle Downs emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water working 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 the existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our professional team can assist in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, we can schedule improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

Large or small, buried in the ground or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a unseen but indispensible part of daily activities. They bring fresh water to your abode, and transfer unclean water and sewage away.

Usually, people don’t even think about their existence until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s generally a major problem that needs to be resolved urgently before your house, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers asap. We are waiting to help Wattle Downs residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.

How did my pipe start leaking?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might burst. If you reside in a cold climate, the pipes may have iced up and split. They could just be aged and worn out. They may not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots may grow into subterranean connections.

Once they arrive, our on call plumber will identify the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if needed to look for other issues.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tapware Issues Resolved

Do you have a troublesome faucet? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how aggravating it is to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is resounding around your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a sigificant problem.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your residence, give us a ring.

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

From big to small, our Wattle Downs emergency plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

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

If the drip is not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively tie a piece of string around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
