Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!
What do you do when a plumbing calamity strikes? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off on the switchboard.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once that’s sorted, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to fix the leak.
While waiting, clear away any significant possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or put a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
I don’t know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve is usually located 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 water off can save your house from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
Our Pooraka urgent plumbers realise that a obstructed drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That is why we offer our 24 hour plumbing service.
A obstructed pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a toy 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 once more.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.
I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?
If you've got a plunger, it's a good idea to try to clear the blockage yourself. We recommend using a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely work well and can cause damage to the drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up following a long cold day? Have a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s a pain to have a proper clean up when the water is cold.
When the hot water is not up to standard, you need it working again fast. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.
Hot water leaks can quickly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed fast, the cost can become more expensive by the day.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Pooraka 24 hour plumbers right away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find 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 you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can help pick the best option for your budget, needs and area. If your whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there’s an issue.
Most of the time you don’t even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your residence, possessions and well-being.
Our 24 hour plumbers are prepared to be there right away, so contact our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.
How did the pipe fail?
There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps may start to leak. If you reside in a extremely cold region, the pipes might have iced up and cracked. They could simply be old and worn out. They may not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots can force open underground junctions.
Once our emergency plumber arrives, they can identify the problems and fix them in a speedy and professional manner.
Do you own a busted faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?
Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a significant annoyance. Something that may go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, disturbing your shuteye.
As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not let the bills increase further, or possibly cause damage to your house, ring our after hours plumber now.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to resolve that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From 24 hour plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Pooraka plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, we can also provide a broad selection of additional plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?
Find a length of string of some type, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
