Same Day Plumber: FAQ

Help, I have a plumbing emergency!

What should you do when you discover a plumbing catastrophe? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the electricity at the breaker box. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff tap to stop all the water to the house.

Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be there promptly to fix the leak.

While waiting, clear away any important possessions close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The main shutoff valve is positioned on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as a water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can protect your residence from more flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Glenelg South urgent plumbers realise that a blocked pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to as soon as possible. That’s why we provide our same day plumbing service.

Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our emergency Glenelg South plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

We suggest trying to clear minor blockages with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it does not clear the clog, we do not suggest chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and can cause more damage to your pipes.

Do not let a obstructed drain send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water Problems

Had a hard day at work and desperately want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a pile of dishes to take care of? It’s never convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is barely warm.

If the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it to be hot again asap. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your pocket very swiftly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Glenelg South same day plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing 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 able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can arrange for improvements at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

Large or little, hidden in the earth or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your residence are a unseen but vital part of daily life. They bring fresh water to your residence, and transfer used water and sewage away.

Normally you don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we are standing in a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired without delay, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and well-being.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our same day plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist Glenelg South residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to get there, it may help to turn off the water to the house.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps might break down. If you reside in a very cold location, the pipes may have iced up and burst. They might simply be old and worn out. The pipes may not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots may grow into subterranean pipes.

Once they are at your home, our urgent plumber will identify the problem and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other problems.

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

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

Many customers over the years have mentioned how aggravating it can be to have a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is resounding around the house like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a serious problem.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even further, or maybe even cause damage to your home, get hold of our after hours plumber straight away.

Whether you need an entire replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert 24 hour plumbers will quickly locate the trouble and solve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Glenelg South same day plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and general plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If the drip is not bad enough to warrant repairing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively tie some twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
