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 there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to find the main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Hawthorn after hours plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it is the bathroom sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our after hours Hawthorn plumbers will quickly locate the problem and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can not get the blockage completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until our plumbers 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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Have some of dishes to take care of? It is hard to have a proper clean when the water is cold.

When the hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. We will be there quickly to diagnose the problem and get it resolved. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Hot water leaks can rapidly put your power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted quickly, it can become more expensive by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Hawthorn urgent plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our plumbers can arrange improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there is a problem.

Often, you never even think about their existence until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a significant issue that must be resolved urgently before the building, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so call our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you own an older house, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and split. In a recently built home, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Underground junctions might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the after hours plumber arrives, they can isolate the issues and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.

All Tapware Handled

Tap Leaks Resolved

Do you have a problem tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

A lot of our clientelle over the years have mentioned how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or defective tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it is resounding throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a serious issue.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your residence, call us now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to fix that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Hawthorn urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and dribble off quietly.
