FAQ Emergency Plumber

What do I do when a plumbing calamity hits?

Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the power off at the switchboard if needed first.

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

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be at your place as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

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

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

The main isolating valve is normally on the boundary of the property close to the road. It is usually set in the ground below a blue or black cover.

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

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you need help quickly. Our emergency Osborne plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible however, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your abode rapidly to resolve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare case that we can not get the obstruction completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

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

Do not let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Ring our 24 hour Osborne emergency plumbing team right away!

Hot Water System Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children in the tub? Got a pile of dishes to deal with? It is seldom opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is cold.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you want it fixed promptly. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Osborne emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again quickly. 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.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your house are a normally concealed but important part of daily life. Large or small, in the ground, within the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally, people never even think about their existence until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s a major issue that must be fixed immediately before the building, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be with you rapidly. We are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent further damage.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a newer house, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the 24 hour plumber arrives, they will locate the issues and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a defective faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

We’ve seen a range of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at 2am when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial irritant, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your house, give us a ring.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have got what you need. All the vans are well equipped with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have the faucet you want, we can put in a temporary faucet until we find the style you need.

From large to small, our Osborne emergency plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a wide selection of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If the drip is not annoying enough to warrant fixing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the noise. Or knot a piece of string around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
