I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if needed turn the electricity off at the breaker box.
Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff valve to cut off all water to the home.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant things, wipe up any water, and put a container to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The water main shutoff valve is found on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning this off can protect your house from increasing leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
We understand a obstructed drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of same day plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.
A obstructed pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our urgent Forest Hill plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
We recommend trying to clear simple blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it does not clear the clog, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely work well, and can cause more damage to the pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
You usually do not realise how heavily you depend upon easy quick hot water until it is not there anymore. Just finished in the garden and really need a wash? Want to take care of some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s barely warm.
When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it remedied as soon as possible so your life can get back to normal.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very swiftly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Forest Hill same day plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water working again promptly. If there is 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 your cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our reliable plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for improvements at a time that works for you as well.
From the small clean water pipes in your walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there’s a problem.
Normally we barely even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed asap, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and well-being.
As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our same day plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to help Forest Hill residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it may be useful to turn off the water to the property.
Why did my pipe fail?
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and cracked. In a recently built house, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Underground seals might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once the 24 hour plumber arrives, they will isolate the problems and fix them in a quick and expert manner.
Do you have a defective tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?
Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant aggravation. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, ruining your shuteye.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to resolve that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.
From same day plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Forest Hill plumbers. Not only can we fix your leaking taps, the team also provide a wide range of additional plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very modest outlay.
