24 Hour Plumbers - FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe strikes?

Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so switch the power off at the power box if needed first.

If there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your home. 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 your home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The primary shutoff valve is usually found on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can save your property from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance as soon as possible. Our 24 hour Doncaster East plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your home quickly to solve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.

Can I unclog the drain myself?

If you have a plunger handy you can try to clear the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please don't use chemicals as they seldom do the job properly and the chemicals can damage the drain pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Hot Water Tank Leaks

We usually don’t think about how heavily you rely upon effortless quick hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Time to deal with some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s barely warm.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it repaired as fast as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Doncaster East 24 hour plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 your cylinder isn’t repairable, our reliable team can help pick the best solution for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can arrange for repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

The pipes in your residence are a normally hidden but indispensible part of your daily life. Large or little, under the ground, within the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you want it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your home, your contents and even your health.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a call, and our 24 hour plumbers will be on the road rapidly. Our team are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce further leaking.

How did the pipe start leaking?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps may start to leak. If you reside in a extremely cold location, they may have frozen and cracked. They could just be aged and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots can grow into subterranean connections.

Our same day plumbers can identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks rapidly and cleanly.

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a troublesome tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious aggravation. A little thing that may go unheard in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the wee hours, disturbing your deams.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you want a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers will efficiently diagnose the trouble and solve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Doncaster East with 24 hour plumbing of all kinds, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too large or small.

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

If it’s not annoying enough to need fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or knot a length of string around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
