I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What should you do when you locate a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If there is water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the switchboard. Then, attempt to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once that’s done, give our team a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be there shortly to fix the leak.
While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important items, wipe up any water, and position a container to catch any drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The water main shutoff valve is positioned on the property perimeter near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the mains off can protect your house from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.
When your drains are overflowing, you need help straight away. Our 24 hour Hillcrest plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
A obstructed pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether there is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need available to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are completed.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
We endorse attempting to clear simple clogs with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the obstruction, we do not recommend chemicals as they rarely get the job done well, and can even cause more damage to the pipes.
Don’t let a clogged pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We usually do not think about how frequently we depend on easy fast hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Need to finish up some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s lukewarm.
When your hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. Our plumbers will be there quickly to diagnose the problem and get it fixed. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.
Hot water leaks can quickly push the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as fast as possible, the cost can become more costly by the hour.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Hillcrest 24 hour plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our friendly team can assist in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, we can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
Large and little, buried in the ground or within the floor, wall or roof, the pipes in your residence are a hidden but key part of your everyday activities. They carry fresh water to your abode, and transfer dirty water and sewage out.
As soon as you find an issue though, it is the most imperative thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it fixed without delay to prevent damage to your residence, your contents and even your well-being.
Our 24 hour plumbers are set to be there quickly, so ring us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.
How did the pipe start leaking?
Pipes can fail and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they may have frozen and ruptured. In a newer house, there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When they are at your home, our same day plumber will identify the problem and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if required to check for other issues.
Do you have a broken faucet? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?
Many clients over the years have told us how frustrating it is to have a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is resounding throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a major issue.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your house, call our team now.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to resolve your leak. The team carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From 24 hour plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our Hillcrest plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, the team can also provide a wide selection of other plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
If it’s not aggravating enough to need fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Or knot some string around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
Our company has been looking after the Hillcrest locale for many years, and our reputation for high quality work at a reasonable price sees our past clients coming back to us whenever they have a plumbing issue.
