After Hours Plumbers: FAQ

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

What do you do when a plumbing calamity hits? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the electricity off at the power box.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff tap to stop all water to the residence.

Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important items, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The main isolating valve is normally on the boundary of the property close to the road. It is usually set into the ground below a blue or black cover.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Solved

We know a obstructed pipe can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is never a good thing. That’s why our team of after hours plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?

If you have a plunger you can attempt to break up the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please do not use chemicals as they seldom get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage the pipes.

Do not let obstructed drains ruin your day. Call our on call Croydon emergency plumbers right away!

Hot Water Issues

We usually don’t think about how frequently you rely on effortless quick hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really want a shower? Want to finish off a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s barely warm.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it sorted as soon as possible. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Croydon after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If there is 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 your existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our team can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even think of them until there is an issue.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is worrying stuff, and you want it repaired as soon as possible to prevent damage to your home, your possessions and even your health.

As soon as a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re waiting to take your call night or day. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce further leaking.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have frozen and split. In a new residence, there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the urgent plumber arrives, they will locate the problems and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a broken faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

We’ve been called to all sorts of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant irritant, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, 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 simply need a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our emergency plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vehicles are well equipped with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you need, our plumber can install a temporary faucet until we track down what you need.

From big to small, our Croydon after hours plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and general plumbing services.

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

If the drip is not annoying enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the racket. Or knot a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
