What do I do when a plumbing calamity hits?

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

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to solve the problem.

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

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The water main shutoff valve is usually found on the property perimeter near the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can save your house from increasing leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Our Birchgrove 24 hour plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to right away. That’s why we offer our same day plumbing service.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.

In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to keep you going until our plumbers return.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

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

Don’t let a clogged pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

You regularly do not think about how frequently we rely on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished in the garage and really need a shower? Want to take care of a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s cold.

If the hot water is not hot enough, you need it sorted promptly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Did you know about 30% of the average home power bill goes to hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your home and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water disasters empty your pocket, get them repaired speedily.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Birchgrove same day plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find 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 the cylinder is not able to be fixed, our helpful plumbers can help pick the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and location. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, we can organise upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

The pipes in your house are a generally unseen but important part of your daily activities. Large or small, subterranean, in the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Most of the time we do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed without delay, to prevent damage to your home, belongings and health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our same day plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are waiting to answer any time. Before they arrive, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to prevent yet more leaking.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older home, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and burst. In a newer house, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean joins could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the on call plumber is present, they will isolate the issues and fix them in a expeitious and professional manner.

Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply defective?

We have seen a range of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a minor niggle, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

Whether you need an entire replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert urgent plumbers will quickly diagnose the issue and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Birchgrove same day plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can often replace worn out parts immediately for a very modest cost.
