Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumber: 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 still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

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

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any important things, mop up any water, and position a container to catch any drips. You should also 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you want help straight away. Our emergency Eltham plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked 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 though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home rapidly to resolve the issue. Our highly trained 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 usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication 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.

Do not let clogged drains ruin your day. Ring our on call Eltham emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Want a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to take care of? It is a pain to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a ring. Our team will be there quickly to diagnose the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very quickly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Eltham emergency plumbers straight away. 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 turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and location. If your whole hot water system needs upgrading, we can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

The pipes in your residence are a normally unseen but significant part of your daily life. Large or little, in the garden, within the wall or the roof, they carry fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Often, people do not even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is usually a significant problem that must be sorted out urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re ready to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise yet more damage.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a newer residence, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground junctions might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our on call plumber is present, they can identify the problems and repair them in a expeitious and expert manner.

All Taps Covered

Tapware Issues Sorted

Do you own a problem faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up broken?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how vexing it is to live with a dripping or defective tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s resounding throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it’s a major problem.

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

Whether you want an entire new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert on call plumbers will efficiently locate the cause and solve it. Our plumbers even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Eltham with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too great or small.

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

Find a length of twine of some type, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the twine and flow off quietly.
