What do you do when a plumbing disaster strikes? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water do not play well together safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off on the switchboard.
If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to save the day.
In the meantime, start cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away important things from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The water main shutoff valve is found on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can save your property from more flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
Our Wantirna on call plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a major health risk that needs attending to right away. That is why we have our urgent plumbing service.
A obstructed drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our emergency Wantirna plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and fix 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 solve the complication to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as we can.
We recommend trying to clear minor obstructions with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it does not clear the clog, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely get the job done well, and may even cause more damage to your pipes.
Do not let clogged drains ruin your day. Call our after hours Wantirna emergency plumbing team now!
We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s difficult to have a proper clean when the water is lukewarm.
When the hot water is not hot enough, you need it remedied as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.
Hot water leaks can swiftly put the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted promptly, it will become more costly by the hour.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Wantirna urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your cylinder is not repairable, our friendly team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.
The pipes in your house are a normally unseen but vital part of your everyday life. Big and small, under the ground, in the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry clean water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.
Normally, we barely even remember them until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is usually a significant problem that needs to be sorted urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.
Our urgent plumbers are ready to get to you right away, so contact our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.
Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. The pipes might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in very wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots could have forced open underground pipes. Or there may be a problem with how they were installed to begin with.
Our emergency plumbers will identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks promptly and precisely.
Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether defective?
We have seen all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a tiny drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor irritant, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call our team now.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to remedy that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Wantirna plumbers. Not only can we sort out leaking taps, the team can also provide a broad selection of other plumbing services.
Why is my tap dripping?
Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and flow off quietly.
