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 water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While waiting, remove any important items close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water 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.

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

Emergency Plumbers Standing By

Blocked Drains Fixed

We realise a clogged drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a professional there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the bathroom sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Richmond plumbers will quickly identify the issue and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

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 obstructed pipes ruin your day. Call our 24 hour Richmond emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Got a few dishes to deal with? It’s never convenient to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is tepid.

When the hot water is not up to standard, you want it fixed quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

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

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Richmond 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 your existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

Big or little, buried in the ground or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but integral part of your daily activities. They bring fresh water to your home, and remove unclean water and sewage out.

Normally we do not even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we are standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired without delay, to prevent damage to your house, possessions and health.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be on the scene right away, so ring our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. They may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in very cold weather and burst. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean seals. Or there may be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.

Once they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will locate the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?

Many customers over the years have told us how vexing it can be to have a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is reverberating throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a serious issue.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, call us now.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new tap, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vehicles are fully stocked with parts and carry a modest choice of new taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we don’t have the faucet you need, we can put in an interim faucet until we locate what you need.

As well as serving Richmond with emergency plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or minor.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If the drip is not bad enough to need repairing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
