Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Urgent 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 valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to solve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant items, clean up any water, and place a bucket to catch drips. You should also switch 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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Balaclava on call plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health risk that needs attending to asap. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible however, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the bathroom sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our on call Balaclava plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue 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 get you down. Call 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 tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It’s awkward to have a proper wash up when the water is lukewarm.

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

Did you know around thiry percent of the average home electricity bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your house and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water disasters empty your wallet, get them resolved as soon as possible.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Balaclava urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 old hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our professional plumbers can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our plumbers can arrange improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

How did my pipe fail?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you reside in a cold region, they might have frozen and cracked. They may simply be old and worn out. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots may invade subterranean seals.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the issue and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if needed to check for other problems.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a broken tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

Many our clientelle over the years have mentioned how aggravating it can be to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s resounding throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a sigificant problem.

Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even further, or possibly cause damage to your house, ring our on call plumber right away.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to stop that leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Balaclava plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, the team also offer a broad range of additional plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not aggravating enough to need repairing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to diminish the noise. Or tie a length of string around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
