I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so turn the power off at the breaker box if needed first.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to fix the leak.
While you are waiting, remove any significant possessions from the area, and clean up any water or position a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!
You might have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is positioned on the boundary close to the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
We realise a blocked drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is never a good thing. That’s why our crew of 24 hour plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.
A clogged drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our urgent Pooraka plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.
In the rare instance that we can not get the clog completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.
I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?
We recommend trying to clear minor clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not work, we do not suggest chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and may even cause more damage to the pipes.
Don’t let blocked pipes ruin your day. Call our emergency Pooraka emergency plumbing team right away!
We often don’t realise how much you rely on easy quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Want to deal with some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s barely warm.

The pipes in your home are a largely unseen but key part of everyday activities. Big or small, underground, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring fresh water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

When you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our 24 hour plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist Pooraka residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the property.
How did the pipe start leaking?
Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older home, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and split. In a recently built home, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground pipes could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once our after hours plumber arrives, they will identify the issues and repair them in a rapid and professional manner.
Do you live with a problematic faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain broken?
Many our clientelle over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to live with a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is resounding around the house like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a sigificant issue.
Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.
Whether you require an entire new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional urgent plumbers will quickly identify the cause and resolve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From large to small, our Pooraka 24 hour plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and day to day plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?
Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the string and trickle off quietly.
