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 water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important things, clean up any water, and position a container to catch drips. You should also turn 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 alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Forest Hill urgent plumbers understand that a obstructed pipe can be a major health risk that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

A obstructed drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it with a plunger. However if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll arrive at your home rapidly to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and return 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 blocked drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a hot shower? Time to put the children in the tub? Have a few dishes to take care of? It is never handy to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is cold.

When the hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a call. Our team will be there promptly to figure out the issue and get it fixed. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very rapidly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Forest Hill emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water working 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 the old hot water cylinder isn’t repairable, our helpful team can assist in finding the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

From the small clean water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there is an issue.

Most of the time we don’t even think about 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 fixed asap, to prevent damage to your residence, possessions and well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so ring our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further flooding by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. They might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have grown into underground pipes. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Once they are at your home, our urgent plumber will identify the problem and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if required to look for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how aggravating it can be to have a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it’s echoing around your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a sigificant issue.

It is not just frustrating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down 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 just need a washer, or an entire new tap, our urgent plumbers have got what you require. All the vans are well equipped with parts and carry a modest choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have the faucet you require, we can put in an interim tap until we find the style you want.

As well as providing Forest Hill with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too big or small.

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

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