When a leak starts spouting, or a drain is blocked, or even the hot water simply isn’t, the last thing you want is to have to wait for a plumber to get there. In an urgent plumbing situation, frequently the longer you wait, the worse things get.
Plumbing problems are never pre-booked or convenient. There are a lot of ways that a plumbing emergency can ruin everything, which is why we strive to be there as quickly as possible, even if it’s public holiday or after hours.
No matter what the time is, call us and our Same Day plumbers will respond right away. We’ll be there fast, and fix your Balmain after hours plumbing issues speedily and efficiently so your home can get back to normal.
We’ve been serving Balmain for years, and our highly trained plumbers have the knowledge, parts and equipment to repair all kinds of plumbing issues fast and efficiently. We’ll even clean up any mess we have made before we go.
We do not just do after hours plumbing though, we’re also available for non-urgent plumbing jobs. Call or email our friendly dependable staff, and we’ll assist you with all your plumbing needs. We’re ready and waiting, regardless of what the issue is or how quickly it has to be solved.
What should you do when you find a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If there is water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the power panel. Then, attempt to reduce any further leaking or flooding.
Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to cut off all the water to your home.
Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to solve the problem.
While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, wipe up any water, and place a bucket to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
The primary isolating valve will generally be on the edge of your property near the road. It is typically set in the ground below a blue or black cover.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
Our Balmain 24 hour plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing immediately. That is why we offer our after hours plumbing service.
Clogged pipes can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your abode speedily to resolve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
In the rare instance that we can not get the blockage completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we come back.
If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to unblock the blockage yourself. We suggest using 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 rarely work well and can cause damage to your pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Need a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a proper clean when the water is cold.
If the hot water is not up to temperature, you need it to be hot again fast. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.
Did you know about thiry percent of the average home electricity bill goes to hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water catastrophies empty your wallet, get them repaired promptly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Balmain after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We will get your hot water working again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is tired and worn out, our plumbers can schedule improvements at a time that suits you as well.
The pipes in your house are a normally hidden but integral part of daily life. Big and small, in the garden, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.
Normally we barely even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you are standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired asap, to minimise damage to your residence, possessions and health.
Our after hours plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so contact our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.
Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have iced up and split. In a newer home, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When they arrive, our emergency plumber will locate the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipes if required to look for other issues.
Do you have a troublesome tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up busted?
Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a serious annoyance. A little thing that can go unnoticed in the hubbub of every day life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums in the wee hours, destroying your sleep.
It is not just annoying drips though. Leaks may run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have got what you require. All our vans are well stocked with parts and carry a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have what you need, we can install a temporary tap until we find the style you desire.
From after hours plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too extensive or little for our Balmain plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also provide a wide selection of additional plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?
Find a length of twine of some kind, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and flow off quietly.
