We have been servicing Elwood for years, and our highly trained plumbers know how, parts and equipment to fix all kinds of plumbing issues quickly and effectively. We’ll even clean up any mess we’ve made prior to leaving.
As well as after hours plumbing, we also do every day plumbing. If you’ve got a non-urgent plumbing job, phone or email our office and we’ll make sure it gets sorted. Our friendly reliable team are ready and waiting to serve you.
I have a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the power off at the power panel.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you rapidly to fix the leak.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help, I do not know where the main water valve is!
The water main shutoff valve is found on the boundary close to the road, normally 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 home from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
Our Elwood emergency plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That’s why we provide our after hours plumbing service.
Clogged pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether there is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.
In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the clog completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we come back.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to unblock a clog yourself. We recommend using a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely work well and can damage the drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
Had a hard day at work and desperately need a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Got some dishes to deal with? It is seldom opportune to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is cold.
When your hot water has fallen short, give our team a call. Our plumbers will be there swiftly to figure out the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.
Hot water leaks can swiftly put your 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 fixed promptly, it will become more expensive by the day.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Elwood after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, needs and area. If your entire hot water system needs improvements, we can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.
From the little clean water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there’s an issue.
Ususally we do not even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we are standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out immediately, to prevent damage to your residence, belongings and well-being.
As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, phone our after hours plumbers without delay. Our team are waiting to help Elwood residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.
Why did the pipe fail?
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a recently built home, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Underground pipes may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When the on call plumber arrives, they will identify the issues and fix them in a expeitious and expert manner.
Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether busted?
Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious irritation. Something that might go unnoticed in the hubbub of every day life without warning sounds like a jack hammer at 2am, disturbing your shuteye.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call us now.
Whether you simply want a washer, or a whole new tap, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vehicles are well equipped with parts and carry a modest selection of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we do not have the faucet you require, we can put in a temporary tap until we find what you want.
As well as providing Elwood with after hours plumbing of all types, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or little.
Why is my faucet dripping?
If it’s not annoying enough to need fixing right this moment, you can put a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot a piece of string around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
We have many years of combined experience looking after the people of Elwood. Our many happy repeat customers prove our reputation for expert, quality, economical work. Our team aim to assist you with all your emergency and non-urgent plumbing needs quickly and efficiently.
