When a leak starts spouting, or a drain is blocked, or even the hot water simply isn’t, the very last thing you want is to need to wait for a plumber to arrive. In an urgent plumbing situation, often the longer you wait, the worse things get.

Our highly trained plumbers have the knowledge, equipment and components to repair plumbing problems of all types quickly and efficiently.

What should you do when you discover a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the electricity at the power panel. Then, attempt to reduce any further leaking or flooding.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you are unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the issue.
While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important items, clean up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
You may know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally positioned on the boundary near the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance asap. Our emergency Glenelg East plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.
Blocked drains can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes cleared.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll arrive at your home quickly to resolve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to get you through until our plumbers return.
We recommend trying to clear simple obstructions with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the clog, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely work well, and may even cause more damage to your pipes.
Do not let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Call our on call Glenelg East emergency plumbers right away!
You generally do not realise how much we rely on easy fast hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Need to deal with a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and discover it’s lukewarm.
When the hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. Our team will be there swiftly to figure out the problem and find a solution. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can repair them and get your life back to normal.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very quickly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Glenelg East emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the old hot water cylinder isn’t repairable, our friendly team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our team can arrange improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.
From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even think of them until there is an issue.
As soon as you find 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 as soon as possible to prevent damage to your house, your contents and even your health.
When you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers asap. Our team are waiting to help Glenelg East residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.
There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps might burst. If you live in a very cold location, they may have frozen and cracked. They may simply be aged and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots can force open subterranean connections.
Once the after hours plumber arrives, they can isolate the issues and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.
Do you live with a problematic tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just broken?
Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a major aggravation. Something that can go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums in the wee hours, ruining your deams.
It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to halt your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From large to small, our Glenelg East emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.
Why is my tap dripping?
Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can usually replace worn out parts right then and there for a very modest cost.
