Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency 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 leaking, turn the water off at the nearest location or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there quickly to solve the problem.

While waiting, clear away any significant items from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Cockle Bay after hours plumbers understand that a clogged pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing immediately. That is why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our after hours Cockle Bay plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require available to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.

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 obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We often do not realise how heavily you depend on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Need to finish up a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and find it’s cold.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it hot again as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very rapidly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Cockle Bay emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We will get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our helpful team can help pick the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is aged and worn out, we can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

Big and small, buried in the garden or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your residence are a hidden but integral part of everyday life. They bring fresh water to your abode, and remove dirty water and sewage away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it’s the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your home, your possessions and even your health.

As soon as a leak is found, give our team a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way quickly. 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 the home to reduce yet more flooding.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. The pipes might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in very cold weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into underground pipes. Or there could be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.

Our after hours plumbers can diagnose and repair your damaged pipes or leaks rapidly and cleanly.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a troublesome tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

We have been called to all sorts of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor niggle, can all of a sudden be a dire plumbing emergency.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Don’t let the bills increase more, or maybe even cause damage to your residence, contact our after hours plumber right away.

Whether you require a whole new faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers can quickly find the problem and remedy it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too extensive or small for our Cockle Bay plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
