When a leak starts spouting, or a drain is blocked, or the hot water simply is not, the very last thing you need is to need to wait for a plumber to get there. In an urgent plumbing situation, frequently the longer you wait, the worse things get.

What should you do when you locate a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the electricity at the power box. Then, try to minimise any further leaking or flooding.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to locate the tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to get things sorted.
While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any important items, clean up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
The primary isolating valve will normally be on the boundary of the property close to the road. It is usually set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance right now. Our urgent Dulwich Hill plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.
Clogged pipes can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to remove a blockage yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It is hard to have a good wash when the water is cold.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it working again fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the usual home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your pocket very rapidly.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Dulwich Hill urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. 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 the cylinder is not fixable, our reliable team can assist in picking the best solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, we can schedule repairs at a time that suits you as well.
From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there’s an issue.
Once there is a problem though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your well-being.
Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be on the scene quickly, so call our plumbers as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.
Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and cracked. In a newer home, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When they are at your home, our same day plumber will diagnose the problem and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other damage.
Do you own a problematic tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up broken?
Many clients over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to have a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it’s echoing throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a serious problem.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to fix your leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.
From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Dulwich Hill plumbers. Not only can we fix your leaking taps, we can also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.
Why is my tap dripping?
Find a piece of string of some type, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the string and flow off quietly.
