On Call Plumbers: FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing disaster strikes?

Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so turn the power off at the power panel if needed first.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main water valve for your property. If you are unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be at your home as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things from the area, and mop up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

The main isolating valve will generally be on the boundary of the property close to the road. It is usually set in the ground underneath a blue or black cover.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance straight away. Our on call Croydon Hills plumbers know how disheartening and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

A obstructed pipe is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself using a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.

I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?

If you have a plunger you can attempt to break up the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please do not use chemicals as they rarely do the job properly and the chemicals can ruin the pipes.

Don’t let a clogged pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water Leaks

Had a hard day at work and badly require a hot shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a pile of dishes to take care of? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is cold.

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

Hot water leaks can rapidly put the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted promptly, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Croydon Hills on call plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best solution for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can schedule to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

Big or little, hidden in the earth or in the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a hidden but key part of daily activities. They carry clean water to your house, and transfer unclean water and sewage out.

Normally, we don’t even remember their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s generally a major issue that needs to be sorted out urgently before your home, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our on call plumbers will be on the road rapidly. Our team are ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to prevent further leaking.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a newer home, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Underground junctions might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our urgent plumber will identify the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if required to check for other problems.

We have been called to a range of tap problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial aggravation, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Do not let the bills increase higher, or possibly cause damage to your residence, get hold of our 24 hour plumber now.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole new tap, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed.
