FAQ Emergency Plumber

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 taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff valve to stop all the water to the house.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there quickly to solve the issue.

While you wait, start wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away important items from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, 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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

We realise a blocked drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is seldom a good thing. That’s why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A obstructed pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our same day East Melbourne plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.

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 ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

You usually don’t realise how much you count upon easy fast hot water until it is not there anymore. Just finished up in the garage and really need a shower? Want 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 is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it sorted as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can swiftly push your power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired quickly, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our East Melbourne emergency plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. 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 new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If your entire hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

From the little clean water pipes in your floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there is an issue.

Normally, we barely even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a serious problem that must be sorted out urgently before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We are ready to take your call night or day. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise further damage.

How did my pipe burst?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a very cold location, the pipes may have iced up and split. They could simply be old and past their use-by. They might not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots can invade underground seals.

When they arrive, our same day plumber will locate the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipes if required to check for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Tap Leaks Fixed

Do you own a problem tap? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?

We have been called to an assortment of tap issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor annoyance, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to resolve that leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing East Melbourne with emergency plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or minor.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?

If it’s not aggravating enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the racket. Alternatively tie a length of twine around the tap spout sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
