FAQ - Emergency Plumber

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 water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to get things sorted.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, clean up any water, and put a container to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help asap. Our emergency Athelstone plumbers know how disheartening and damaging blocked drains can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

A obstructed drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help 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 problem. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

In the rare case that we can’t get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.

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 drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

Had a hard day at work and badly need a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Have a pile of dishes to deal with? It is seldom handy to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it remedied 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 always overflowing, you want it sorted asap so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very rapidly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Athelstone emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best solution for your budget, requirements and area. If the whole hot water system requires improvements, we can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

From the small clean water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there is a problem.

Usually, we do not even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a serious problem that must be sorted immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

Our emergency plumbers are prepared to be there quickly, so ring us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in extremely frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots may have invaded subterranean seals. Or there may be an issue with how they were set up in the first place.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the issue and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if required to check for other damage.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Problems Resolved

Do you live with a problematic tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant aggravation. A little thing that can go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the wee hours, disturbing your deams.

It’s not only vexing drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to resolve your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Athelstone with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too large or too small.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

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