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.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our team a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant things, wipe up any water, and position a bucket to catch 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, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help straight away. Our emergency Oakleigh plumbers know how disheartening and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our on call Oakleigh plumbers will quickly locate the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is needed 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.

Do not let a clogged pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a few of dishes to deal with? It is a pain to have a good wash up when the water is not hot.

If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it repaired promptly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can swiftly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed fast, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Oakleigh emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If you find 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, needs and area. If the whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there’s a problem.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it resolved asap to prevent damage to your residence, your contents and even your well-being.

The moment a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are ready to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise further leaking.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have frozen and ruptured. In a recently built residence, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground junctions could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the on call plumber is present, they can isolate the issues and repair them in a expeitious and expert manner.

All Taps Covered

Tap Issues Fixed

Do you have a busted faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

We have seen all sorts of tap issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant aggravation, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not let the bills rise even further, or possibly cause damage to your house, ring our on call plumber straight away.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to halt your leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Oakleigh with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.

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

Find a length of twine of some type, and tie it onto the tap aerator so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and dribble off quietly.
