Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumbers: 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.

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

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to save the day.

In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and remove important possessions from the area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you want help asap. Our emergency Balmain plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our 24 hour Balmain plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

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 clogged pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up following a freezing day? Got a pile of of dishes to take care of? It’s awkward to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it to be sorted as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it fixed.

Did you know about thiry percent of your home electricity bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water troubles empty your pocket, get them repaired as soon as possible.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Balmain emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is 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 you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, requirements and area. If your entire hot water system needs improvements, we can arrange to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

The pipes in your home are a generally concealed but indispensible part of your everyday life. Big and small, in the earth, within the wall or the ceiling, they carry clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally we don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly you are standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out asap, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and health.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to help Balmain residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe fail?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a extremely cold region, the pipes may have iced up and burst. They may just be old and dilapidated. They might not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots can force open underground junctions.

Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will identify the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if required to look for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Issues Sorted

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

Many customers over the years have mentioned how aggravating it is to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s echoing around your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a sigificant problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

Whether you simply want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you require. All the vans are fully equipped with parts and have a modest selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you need, we can put in an interim faucet until we find the style you need.

As well as serving Balmain with emergency plumbing of all kinds, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too great or small.

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

Find a length of string of some kind, and tie it around the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
