24 Hour Plumbers FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing disaster occurrs?

What do you do when a plumbing disaster strikes? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if needed turn the electricity off on the power panel.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be there as soon as we can to save the day.

While you are waiting, clear away any important things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

I do not know where the main water tap is!

The primary shutoff valve is usually located on the boundary near the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can save your home from more flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance asap. Our 24 hour Newtown plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our emergency Newtown plumbers will quickly locate the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can not get the clog completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers return.

I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?

If you have a plunger, it's worth trying to unblock the clog yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they seldom do a good job and can cause damage to your pipes.

Do not let obstructed drains ruin your day. Ring our urgent Newtown emergency plumbing team right away!

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

Large and little, hidden in the garden or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your residence are a unseen but indispensible part of your everyday activities. They bring clean water to your home, and transfer used water and sewage out.

Often, people never even think about their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a serious problem that must be sorted immediately before your house, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

Our 24 hour plumbers are prepared to be on the scene quickly, so call our plumbers as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe fail?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you reside in a very cold region, the pipes might have frozen and split. They may simply be aged and past their use-by. They might not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots can force open underground junctions.

Our after hours plumbers can diagnose and fix your burst pipes or leaks expeitiously and cleanly.

Tap Leaks Fixed

Do you own a problematic faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain broken?

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to live with a dripping or defective tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is reverberating throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

It is not only aggravating drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to halt your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From 24 hour plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or minor for our Newtown plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team can also provide a broad range of other plumbing services.

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

Find a length of string of some kind, and knot it onto the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and trickle off quietly.
