FAQ: 24 Hour Plumber

I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so turn the electricity off at the switchboard if needed first.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is done, give our team a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While waiting, remove any important things from the area, and mop up any water or position a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The primary isolating valve will generally be on the border of the property near the road. It is usually set in the ground below a blue or black cover.

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

Blocked Drains Problems

We know a obstructed drain can be a serious problem. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is never a happy circumstance. That is why our team of 24 hour plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

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

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to keep you going until we return.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

If you have a plunger you can try to clear the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please don't use chemicals as they rarely do the job properly and the chemicals can damage the drain pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Hot Water Issues

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Got some of dishes to deal with? It is a pain to have a good wash up when the water is cold.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a call. We’ll be there quickly to figure out the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

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

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Kings Cross 24 hour plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, needs and area. If your entire hot water system requires upgrading, we can organise to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even think of them until there is an issue.

Most of the time we barely even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly we’re looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and well-being.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our 24 hour plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to help Kings Cross residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe burst?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might break down. If you live in a cold region, the pipes might have frozen and ruptured. They could simply be aged and worn out. The pipes may not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots can invade subterranean joins.

When they arrive, our after hours plumber will identify the issue and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipework if needed to look for other damage.

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a annoying tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up busted?

We have seen a range of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant annoyance, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

Not only can it keep the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills increase higher, or possibly cause damage to your residence, get hold of our emergency plumber right away.

Whether you require an entire new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert emergency plumbers can efficiently find the problem and resolve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Kings Cross with 24 hour plumbing of all kinds, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth repairing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to minimise the noise. Or knot some string around the faucet aerator sufficient to touch the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
