Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumber FAQ

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to locate a water 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 reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, begin mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and clear away significant items from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Russell Lea urgent plumbers understand that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That is why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

A clogged drain is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to tide you over until we come back.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest 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 seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

You usually do not think about how frequently you rely on effortless quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Need to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it repaired fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or practically boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in your 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 harm to your pocket very quickly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Russell Lea emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a new hot water cylinder, our team can help pick the best solution for your budget, requirements and area. If your whole hot water system needs upgrading, we can organise to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

From the little clean water pipes in your floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there is a problem.

Often, you don’t even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is generally a serious issue that must be resolved immediately before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are ready to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise yet more leaking.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have frozen and burst. In a new home, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Underground junctions might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our urgent plumber will locate the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other problems.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Leaks Sorted

Do you live with a problematic tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

We have seen a range of tap issues over the years, and know that even a tiny drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a trivial aggravation, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s hot water. Do not let the bills increase even higher, or possibly cause damage to your home, get hold of our urgent plumber straight away.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have the faucet you need, we can put in an interim faucet until we find the style you desire.

From large to small, our Russell Lea emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad range of emergency and general plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If the drip is not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the noise. Alternatively knot a piece of string around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
