Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ - Emergency Plumber

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 water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest location or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there quickly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, wipe up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You should also 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 Problems

Our Box Hill on call plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a major health hazard that needs attending to right away. That is why we have our emergency plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains cleared.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our on call Box Hill plumbers will quickly identify the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we come back.

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 Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Got a few of dishes to finish off? It’s awkward to have a good wash up when the water is not hot.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it working again promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know around thiry percent of the average household electricity bill is used on hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water troubles harm your pocket, get them resolved as soon as possible.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Box Hill emergency plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 is not repairable, our friendly plumbers can assist in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our team can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

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

Find a length of string of some kind, and knot it around the tap spout so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and dribble off quietly.
