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.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to cut off all the water to the house.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While waiting, remove any significant things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance right now. Our emergency Box Hill plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll arrive at your abode quickly to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away 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 will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is required 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

It’s been a hard day at work and badly require a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Got a sink-full of dishes to finish up? It is rarely convenient to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it sorted promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it working again asap so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Box Hill emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If you find 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 cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our friendly plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If your whole system is aged and worn out, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

From the little clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is an issue.

Often, people don’t even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s generally a major problem that needs to be sorted urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers asap. Our team are waiting to help Box Hill residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.

How did the pipe burst?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you live in a very cold location, they may have frozen and split. They could just be old and dilapidated. The pipes may not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots may grow into underground connections.

When our on call plumber arrives, they will isolate the issues and fix them in a prompt and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a troublesome tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant aggravation. Something that can go unheard in the hubbub of every day life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the wee hours, ruining your deams.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Do not let the bills rise further, or possibly cause damage to your home, get hold of our on call plumber right away.

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

As well as serving Box Hill with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too large or little.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

If it’s not bad enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to minimise the noise. Or knot a piece of twine around the tap spout long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
