I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
What do you do when a plumbing calamity arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if you need to, turn the power off at the breaker box.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you are unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to save the day.
In the meantime, start mopping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove valuable items from the area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The water main shutoff valve is located on the property perimeter close to the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can protect your house from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Macleod on call plumbers understand that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That’s why we offer our after hours plumbing service.
Blocked drains can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, 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 clear away the mess.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.
Can I unclog the drain myself?
We recommend attempting to clear minor clogs with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the clog, we do not recommend chemicals as they rarely get the job done well, and may cause more damage to the drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up following a long cold day? Got a few of dishes to finish off? It is hard to have a good wash up when the water is cold.
When your hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. Our team will be there promptly to figure out the problem and fix it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get your life back to normal.
Hot water leaks can quickly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted speedily, it will become more expensive by the day.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Macleod after hours plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. 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 existing hot water cylinder isn’t repairable, our helpful team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can schedule improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.
From the little clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We never even remember them until there’s an issue.
As soon as you find an issue though, it is the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it resolved asap to prevent damage to your home, your furnishings and even your health.
Our after hours plumbers are prepared to get to you quickly, so call our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further flooding by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.
How did the pipe burst?
There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a very cold region, the pipes may have iced up and cracked. They might simply be aged and worn out. They may not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots may force open subterranean joins.
When they are at your home, our urgent plumber will locate the issue and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if needed to look for other damage.
Do you have a irksome faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?
We have seen all sorts of tap problems over the years, and know that even a tiny drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant annoyance, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.
It is not only frustrating drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to remedy that leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From after hours plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Macleod plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team also provide a wide range of additional plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can usually replace worn out parts immediately for a very reasonable outlay.
We have been looking after the residents of Macleod for many years now. Our customers know us as speedy, professional plumbers who do the job right first time, at a reasonable price. We are the friendly faces you want to see when there is a plumbing catastrophe.
