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.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff valve to stop all the water to the home.

Once that’s sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be there promptly to get things sorted.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important items from the area, and mop up any water or put a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance right now. Our emergency Thorngate plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

A clogged pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. But if you can not, you need help rapidly. 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’s a item 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 again.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to keep you going until our plumbers return.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up after a wintery day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is a pain to have a good wash when the water is cold.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed fast so your life can get 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 create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed quickly, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Thorngate emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 your cylinder is not fixable, our reliable team can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can arrange for upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a largely hidden but very important part of your everyday life. Large or little, subterranean, within the walls or the roof or under the floor, they carry fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Normally, we barely even remember them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a serious issue that needs to be fixed immediately before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to be on the scene right away, so contact us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. They may simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they could have iced up in extremely wintery weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have forced open subterranean pipes. Or there may be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.

When our on call plumber arrives, they can identify the problems and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Problems Solved

Do you own a broken faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?

We’ve been called to an assortment of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor niggle, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise higher, or maybe even cause damage to your residence, contact our on call plumber right away.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to resolve that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our Thorngate emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

If the drip is not bad enough to warrant repairing right now, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the noise. Or knot a piece of string around the faucet spout long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
