Urgent 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 access point or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce 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 will be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant things, mop 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Blocked Drains Solved

When your drains are overflowing, you want help fast. Our urgent Merricks plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

Obestructed drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our same day Merricks plumbers will quickly locate the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and get back 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 pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We usually do not realise how much we count upon effortless quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished in the garden and really want a wash? Want to take care of some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and discover it’s lukewarm.

When the hot water is not up to standard, you need it to be remedied promptly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly identify the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of your household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very swiftly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Merricks urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. 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 cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful team can help pick the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is aged and deteriorating, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

Large or small, buried in the garden or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your residence are a unseen but indispensible part of everyday activities. They bring clean water to your house, and remove unclean water and sewage away.

Ususally we don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed as soon as possible, to prevent damage to your house, belongings and health.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. The pipes may simply be old and dilapidated. Or they could have frozen in extremely frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots may have grown into subterranean pipes. Or there could be a problem with how the pipes were set up to begin with.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will identify the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other damage.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Problems Fixed

Do you have a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether defective?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious aggravation. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like a jack hammer in the middle of the night, disturbing your deams.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your residence, call us now.

Whether you want an entire replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional same day plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and resolve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From urgent plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too extensive or little for our Merricks plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, the team also offer a broad selection of other plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?

If the drip is not aggravating enough to be worth fixing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to minimise the noise. Alternatively knot a length of string around the tap aerator sufficient to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
