24 Hour Plumbers FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing emergency hits?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency strikes? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if needed turn the mains switch off on the breaker box.

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

Once that is done, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to fix the leak.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant things, wipe up any water, and put a bucket to catch any drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

The main shutoff valve is generally located on the boundary close to the road, normally under a blue or black plastic 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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Unley Park after hours plumbers understand that a obstructed drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our 24 hour plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your home speedily to resolve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.

I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?

If you have a plunger you can try to clear the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please don't use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage the drains.

Don’t let blocked drains ruin your day. Ring our emergency Unley Park emergency plumbing team now!

Hot Water Issues

We tend to do not realise how frequently we depend upon easy quick hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really need a wash? Time to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed as fast as possible, the cost will become more expensive by the day.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Unley Park 24 hour plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If there is 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 is not repairable, our friendly team can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is aged and deteriorating, we can organise repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden 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 imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your contents and even your health.

Our 24 hour plumbers are set to be there quickly, so contact us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very wintery weather and split. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean joints. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

When they are at your home, our urgent plumber will diagnose the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other damage.

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a troublesome faucet? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

We’ve seen a range of tap problems over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a inconsequential aggravation, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

It is not only frustrating drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you require an entire new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional after hours plumbers can efficiently diagnose the issue and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From large to small, our Unley Park 24 hour plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and general plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and knot it around the tap spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and flow off quietly.
