I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the power off on the breaker box.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.
While you wait, start wiping up any water, place a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable items from the area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve is generally positioned on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the mains off can protect your property from increasing leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.
Our Matraville same day plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a major health hazard that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our 24 hour plumbing service.
A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether there is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.
With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
We endorse trying to clear minor blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the obstruction, we do not suggest chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and can even cause more damage to your pipes.
Do not let a obstructed drain get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
Had a hard day at work and desperately want a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Got a pile of dishes to take care of? It is rarely convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is lukewarm.
When your hot water has fallen short, give our plumbers a ring. Our plumbers will be there swiftly to diagnose the issue and get it fixed. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team 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 property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very quickly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Matraville 24 hour plumbers right away. We will get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If your entire hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.
The pipes in your home are a normally unseen but significant part of your daily activities. Large or small, in the garden, within the walls or the roof or under the floor, they bring clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.
Ususally we never even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we are looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.
The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our 24 hour plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce further flooding.
Why did the pipe fail?
Pipes and taps can break down for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in very cold weather and cracked. Tree roots could have invaded subterranean connections. Or there might be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.
Our after hours plumbers can identify and repair your broken pipes or leaks rapidly and efficiently.
Do you have a problem faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?
We have been called to all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a inconsequential irritant, can all of a sudden be a dire plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call us now.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need on hand to fix your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From 24 hour plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Matraville plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, the team can also offer a wide range of other plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?
If it is not bad enough to be worth fixing right now, you can place a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie a length of twine around the faucet spout long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
