Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumbers: 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 leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, start wiping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable things from the area. If the property 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 alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Prahan after hours plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing immediately. That’s why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it by yourself using a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s 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 once more.

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

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 obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put mucky kids in the shower? Need a good soak to warm up after a wintery day? Have a few of dishes to take care of? It’s difficult to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

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

Did you know about 30% of the average home electricity bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your home and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water problems harm your wallet, get them resolved promptly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Prahan emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. 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 your cylinder isn’t repairable, our helpful team can help pick the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can organise upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

Large and little, hidden under the ground or in the floor, walls or roof, the various pipes in your home are a hidden but vital part of everyday activities. They carry clean water to your abode, and take unclean water and sewage away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it fixed asap to prevent damage to your house, your furnishings and even your well-being.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers immediately. We are waiting to help Prahan residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the home.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have frozen and ruptured. In a new home, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our after hours plumber will diagnose the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if advised to check for other issues.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how irritating it can be to have a dripping or busted tap. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is resounding around the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a major problem.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call us now.

Whether you require a whole new faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and solve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Prahan with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or minor.

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

If it’s not annoying enough to be worth fixing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the noise. Or knot a piece of string around the tap aerator long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
