Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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.

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

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important items, clean up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Problems

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

A obstructed pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. But if you can’t, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

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!

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

The pipes in your house are a generally hidden but important part of everyday activities. Big or small, in the garden, in the walls or the roof or under the floor, they carry fresh water to you and take the used stuff away.

Normally, people never even remember their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s usually a serious issue that needs to be fixed immediately before your house, your possessions or even your health are damaged or ruined.

When you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to assist Thornbury residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a recently built home, there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our 24 hour plumber arrives, they will locate the issues and fix them in a prompt and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a problematic tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a significant irritation. Something that may go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, ruining your shuteye.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down 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 have everything they might need in the vans to halt your leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Thornbury urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

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

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of tap, we can often replace worn out parts on the spot for a very modest expenditure.
