What do I do when a plumbing emergency strikes?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency strikes? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off on the switchboard.
If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant items from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
You might have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally found on the boundary close to the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.
When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our urgent Camberwell plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.
A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether it is the bathroom sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our emergency Camberwell plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to clear the blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely work well and can damage the drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a nice warm shower? Time to put the children in the tub? Have a pile of dishes to take care of? It’s never opportune to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is lukewarm.
When your hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it sorted quickly so your life can get back to normal.
Hot water leaks can quickly put your power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired asap, the cost will become more costly by the day.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Camberwell urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working 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 the cylinder is not able to be fixed, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is aged and worn out, we can schedule improvements at a time that suits you as well.
From the small clean water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even think of them until there’s an issue.
Once there is an issue though, it’s the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it repaired without delay to prevent damage to your residence, your furnishings and even your well-being.
Our urgent plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so contact us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.
How did my pipe fail?
Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have frozen and ruptured. In a new home, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Underground joins might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Our 24 hour plumbers can identify and fix your burst pipes or leaks quickly and efficiently.
Do you live with a troublesome faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain broken?
Many clients over the years have mentioned how irritating it is to have a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is reverberating around your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it is a serious issue.
It isn’t just frustrating drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you require an entire replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist on call plumbers will speedily diagnose the problem and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.
As well as providing Camberwell with urgent plumbing of all kinds, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or minor.
Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the tap spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and dribble off quietly.
We have been looking after the residents of Camberwell for many years now. Our clients know us as speedy, expert plumbers who get the job done right first time, at a reasonable price. We are the friendly faces you want to see when you have a plumbing emergency.
All our plumbers are licenced, certified, experienced, and will ensure that all plumbing work meets industry regulations. We want to ensure your residence is an enjoyable healthy safe place to live, and will work hard day or night to do so.
Our team has many years of experience repairing all sorts of plumbing issues, from leaks to burst pipes to obstructed drains to hot water systems. You name it, we’ve probably fixed it. And even though these things tend to happen at the worst possible time, we’ll be there quickly to sort it out.
When you dial our emergency line, you’ll talk directly to a plumber, not an answering service. We might even be able to help you deal with your issue over the phone. If not, we’ll be there quickly in a fully stocked van to get it sorted as fast as possible.
