Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

Urgent 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating valve to stop all the water to the home.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While you wait, start mopping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important things from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you want help fast. Our urgent Hawthorn plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it on your own with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unblocked.

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

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are completed.

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 obstructed drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is difficult to have a proper wash up when the water is cold.

When your hot water has let you down, give us a ring. Our team will be there swiftly to diagnose the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very rapidly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Hawthorn urgent plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick the best solution for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.

Urgent Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

The pipes in your house are a largely concealed but key part of your daily activities. Large and small, underground, within the walls or the roof, they bring fresh water to you and take the used stuff away.

Once there is an issue though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it repaired without delay to prevent damage to your house, your contents and even your health.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be with you rapidly. We are ready to answer any time. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise further flooding.

How did the pipe start leaking?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you live in a very cold location, the pipes may have frozen and burst. They may simply be old and worn out. The pipes might not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots may invade subterranean connections.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will identify the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other issues.

All Tapware Handled

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you own a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?

We have seen a range of tap problems over the years, and know that even a little drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a inconsequential annoyance, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks may push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to fix that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Hawthorn with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or small.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

If the drip is not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to minimise the sound. Alternatively tie some string around the tap spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
