What do I do when a plumbing calamity strikes?
What should you do when you find a plumbing catastrophe? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the electricity at the power panel. Then, try to reduce any further leaking or flooding.
Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to cut off all water to the property.
Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to solve the issue.
While you wait, start wiping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away significant items from the area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The water main shutoff valve is located on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning this off can save your house from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
We realise a blocked pipe can be a major problem. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is never a good thing. That is why our team of after hours plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.
A blocked drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your home quickly to solve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the problem to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
We recommend trying to clear minor blockages with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it does not clear the blockage, we don't suggest chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and may cause more damage to your pipes.
Don’t let a blocked pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
Had a hard day at work and badly require a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Have a sink-full of dishes to deal with? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is lukewarm.
If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it remedied asap. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.
Hot water leaks can rapidly push the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired quickly, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.
When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Balmain East after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water 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 team can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system needs upgrading, we can arrange to do that in a opportune manner as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there’s an issue.
Most of the time we never even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we are looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved immediately, to prevent damage to your house, belongings and health.
Our after hours plumbers are set to be there quickly, so ring our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.
Why did my pipe fail?
Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. They may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean seals. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.
When they are at your home, our emergency plumber will diagnose the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if required to look for other damage.
Do you own a troublesome tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?
A lot of our clientelle over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to have a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is resounding around your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a sigificant problem.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your house, call our team now.
Whether you want a whole replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist on call plumbers can quickly find the cause and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From large to small, our Balmain East after hours plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a broad range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?
If it is not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet spout long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
