Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

Emergency Plumbers: 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 straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the issue.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant things from the area, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, also 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Blocked Drains Problems

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance as soon as possible. Our emergency Richmond plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

A obstructed pipe is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog 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 lay eyes on, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

In the rare case that we can not get the obstruction completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to get you through 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.

Do not let clogged pipes ruin your day. Call our urgent Richmond emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We regularly don’t think about how frequently we rely upon effortless fast hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really need a wash? Time to take care of a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s barely warm.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it sorted fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it repaired quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted promptly, the cost will become more costly by the day.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Richmond emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

The pipes in your residence are a normally unseen but very important part of everyday activities. Large or little, underground, in the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Ususally you do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you are standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved immediately, to prevent damage to your home, furnishings and well-being.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re ready to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce yet more damage.

Why did my pipe fail?

There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps may break down. If you live in a very cold location, the pipes may have iced up and ruptured. They could just be old and dilapidated. They might not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots can invade underground joins.

Our urgent plumbers will diagnose and fix the broken pipes or leaks speedily and professionally.

All Taps Covered

Tapware Leaks Fixed

Do you have a troublesome tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?

Many customers over the years have told us how annoying it is to have a dripping or broken tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it’s reverberating throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a major problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your residence, call our team now.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vehicles are well stocked with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we don’t have what you want, we can install a temporary faucet until we track down the style you desire.

From big to small, our Richmond emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a wide selection of emergency and general plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can often replace worn out parts immediately for a very acceptable expenditure.
