Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

Urgent Plumber 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating valve to stop all the water to the home.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things from the area, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating 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.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

We know a clogged pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it is the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A clogged drain is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the laundry sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our after hours Pooraka plumbers will quickly identify the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require available to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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 blocked pipe get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It’s awkward to have a good wash up when the water is cold.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed quickly so your life can get back to normal.

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

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Pooraka urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off 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 reliable team can help pick the best option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is old and deteriorating, we can organise repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

From the small clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, 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’s an issue.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it repaired immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your contents and even your health.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be with you quickly. Our team are waiting to take your call any time. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to prevent yet more leaking.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a newer residence, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean seals might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our after hours plumber will locate the issue and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other issues.

All Taps Handled

Tap Leaks Sorted

Do you have a busted tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to live with a dripping or broken tap. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s echoing throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a sigificant issue.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are fully equipped with parts and have a small choice of new taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we do not have what you want, our plumber can install an interim tap until we locate the style you want.

From big to small, our Pooraka urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and general plumbing services.

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

Find a length of string of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
