FAQ: Emergency Plumbers

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 there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. They will be there promptly to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away significant things from the area. If the house 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you want help quickly. Our emergency Cockatoo plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

A blocked drain is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our urgent Cockatoo plumbers will quickly locate the problem and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as possible.

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 clogged drain send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

Had a hard day at work and badly want a hot shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Got a sink-full of dishes to deal with? It is rarely handy to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is cold.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it working again fast so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very rapidly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Cockatoo emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t repairable, our professional team can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is old and deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

The pipes in your house are a normally hidden but very important part of your everyday activities. Big and little, subterranean, within the wall or the roof, they bring clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Most of the time we do not even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out asap, to prevent damage to your residence, belongings and well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so ring our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further damage by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a range of reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in extremely wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots might have invaded subterranean pipes. Or there may be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

Our urgent plumbers will identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks speedily and professionally.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a broken faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to live with a dripping or defective tap. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s echoing throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it is a sigificant issue.

It’s not only vexing drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you require a whole replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist urgent plumbers will efficiently locate the cause and resolve it. We even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Cockatoo with emergency plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too great or minor.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

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