Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent Plumbers 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.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest location or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to solve the issue.

While waiting, clear away any important items close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Strathewen on call plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs attending to right away. That’s why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

Blocked drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our on call Strathewen plumbers will quickly identify the problem and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can not get the obstruction completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers return.

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 blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Have some of dishes to take care of? It’s a pain to have a proper wash up when the water is not hot.

If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it working again asap. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Did you know around 30% of the average household power bill is used for hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water calamities harm your wallet, get them fixed asap.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Strathewen urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system needs upgrading, we can schedule to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

Large and small, hidden in the earth or in the floor, walls or roof, the various pipes in your residence are a unseen but indispensible part of your everyday activities. They carry clean water to your home, and remove unclean water and sewage away.

Usually, people do not even recall them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s generally a significant problem that must be sorted out immediately before your home, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is found, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road quickly. Our team are ready to answer day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce yet more leaking.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have frozen in extremely cold weather and split. Tree roots may have grown into subterranean seals. Or there might be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

When our on call plumber is present, they will locate the problems and repair them in a expeitious and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Issues Fixed

Do you own a defective tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant aggravation. A little thing that can go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, disturbing your sleep.

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

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to halt that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Strathewen with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too big or minor.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of tap, we can usually replace dilapidated parts right then and there for a very reasonable price.
