Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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 still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate a main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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 pipes are overflowing, you need help straight away. Our emergency Somerville plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

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

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your home rapidly to solve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is needed 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 obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Got a few of dishes to finish off? It is hard to have a good wash up when the water is lukewarm.

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

Did you know around 30% of your household electricity bill is used on hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water troubles hurt your wallet, get them fixed speedily.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Somerville emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful plumbers can assist in finding the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

From the little clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there is an issue.

Often, we barely even recall their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is generally a significant problem that needs to be sorted out immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be with you rapidly. We’re ready to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to prevent yet more leaking.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have iced up and cracked. In a newer home, there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean connections might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will locate the issue and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if required to check for other problems.

All Taps Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply defective?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping faucet can be a major vexation. Something that may go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos at 2am, destroying your deams.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.

Whether you require an entire replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers can efficiently find the problem and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Somerville plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, we can also offer a wide selection of other plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If the drip is not aggravating enough to warrant repairing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or knot a length of twine around the tap spout long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
