FAQ - Urgent Plumbers

I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

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

If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest location and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant possessions close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a container to catch the 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!

You might have been shown it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our North Warrandyte on call plumbers understand that a obstructed pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing immediately. That’s why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our after hours North Warrandyte plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the problem to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

We recommend attempting to clear minor blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it does not work, we don't suggest chemicals as they seldom work well, and can cause more damage to your pipes.

Do not let blocked drains ruin your day. Ring our same day North Warrandyte emergency plumbing team right away!

Hot Water Tank Leaks

You often don’t think about how frequently you count upon easy quick hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really want a shower? Need to deal with a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and find it’s cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it repaired fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it sorted as soon as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our North Warrandyte urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly team can help in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, we can organise an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

From the little clean water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there’s a problem.

Normally we barely even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we are standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired immediately, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and health.

The moment a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be with you rapidly. We’re waiting to take your call 24/7. Before they arrive, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent further flooding.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for a variety of reasons. The pipes might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have grown into underground joints. Or there may be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if required to check for other problems.

Tapware Leaks Resolved

Do you own a problematic tap? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?

We have seen an assortment of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant niggle, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All the vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have the tap you require, our plumber can install a temporary tap until we track down the style you need.

From large to small, our North Warrandyte urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a wide range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and tie it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
