FAQ - After Hours Plumbers

What do I do when a plumbing calamity occurrs?

Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the electricity off at the breaker box if needed first.

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main shutoff 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 hour of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin mopping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and remove important possessions from the area. If the mains water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

I do not know where the main water tap is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is normally positioned on the boundary near the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

We understand a blocked drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is seldom a good thing. That’s why our team of after hours plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains cleared.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your abode speedily to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as we can.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

If you have a plunger you can try to clear the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please do not use chemicals as they rarely do the job properly and the chemicals can damage the pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water System Not Working

We generally do not realise how much you count on easy fast hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a shower? Time to finish off a pile of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s tepid.

When your hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a ring. Our plumbers will be there quickly to identify the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Hot water leaks can swiftly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as fast as possible, the cost can become more costly by the hour.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our St Andrews Beach after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful team can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and location. If your whole system is tired and deteriorating, our plumbers can organise improvements at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

Big and little, buried subterranean or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but important part of everyday life. They carry fresh water to your home, and take used water and sewage out.

Often, we do not even remember their existence until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s usually a major problem that needs to be resolved urgently before your home, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is found, give us a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be on their way quickly. We’re ready to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce yet more flooding.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. They may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in very wintery weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have forced open subterranean seals. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

When they arrive, our emergency plumber will diagnose the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipework if required to check for other problems.

Tapware Problems Fixed

Do you have a troublesome tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious irritation. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like a jack hammer in the middle of the night, ruining your shuteye.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your residence, call our team now.

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

From big to small, our St Andrews Beach after hours plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of tap, we can frequently replace worn out parts on the spot for a very reasonable price.
