Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent Plumbers 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 water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They will be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, place a container to catch drips, and clear away significant items from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Petersham after hours plumbers realise that a obstructed drain can be a major health hazard that needs attending to right away. That’s why we have our urgent plumbing service.

A blocked drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it yourself using a plunger. But 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 wish to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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 ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

It’s been a hard day at work and badly need a nice warm shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Got some dishes to finish off? It is never handy to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is barely warm.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it sorted quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed asap 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 house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very rapidly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Petersham urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t fixable, our helpful team can assist in picking the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, our plumbers can organise improvements at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

The pipes in your home are a generally unseen but very important part of everyday life. Big or small, subterranean, in the walls or the roof, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Often, we never even think about them until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a major issue that must be sorted out immediately before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road quickly. We’re waiting to answer night or day. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to reduce yet more damage.

How did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and cracked. In a new residence, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean joins might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the after hours plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and fix them in a quick and professional manner.

All Taps Covered

Tapware Issues Solved

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

A lot of customers over the years have told us how irritating it can be to have a dripping or defective faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is resounding throughout the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks can push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you want an entire new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers can rapidly find the trouble and solve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Petersham urgent plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a broad range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

Find a piece of string of some type, and tie it onto the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and dribble off quietly.
