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.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water tap to cut off all water to the residence.

Once that’s sorted, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things 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 hot water heating 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 called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Richmond urgent plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That is why we have our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a professional there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your abode quickly to resolve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up 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 resolve the problem to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Got some dishes to take care of? It’s rarely opportune to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is lukewarm.

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

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very rapidly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Richmond emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and area. If the entire hot water system requires improvements, we can schedule to do that in a opportune fashion as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

The pipes in your home are a normally unseen but very important part of daily life. Big or small, in the earth, in the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally you barely even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out without delay, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.

As soon as a leak is found, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are ready to answer day or night. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise yet more leaking.

Why did the pipe fail?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a very cold location, the pipes may have frozen and cracked. They could simply be old and worn out. They might not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots may grow into subterranean seals.

Once our urgent plumber arrives, they will locate the issues and repair them in a expeitious and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Solved

Do you own a defective tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

We’ve seen an assortment of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a inconsequential irritant, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is 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 want a whole new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist urgent plumbers can efficiently diagnose the issue and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our Richmond emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a broad selection of urgent and general plumbing services.

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

If it is not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Or tie a piece of twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
