Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

On Call 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.

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

Once that’s done, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to fix the leak.

In the meantime, start mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and remove valuable things from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you want help asap. Our on call Richmond plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging blocked drains can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Clogged drains can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unclogged.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your home quickly to solve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare case that we can’t get the obstruction 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?

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. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately want a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have a few dishes to finish off? It’s seldom handy to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden discover that the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it working again fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it sorted as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can 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 serious damage to your wallet very swiftly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Richmond on call 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 switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your existing hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our reliable team can help in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our team can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

Big and small, buried in the ground or in the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but significant part of your daily activities. They carry clean water to your residence, and remove used water and sewage away.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you want it fixed asap to prevent damage to your residence, your possessions and even your health.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our on call plumbers will be on the road quickly. We’re waiting to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise further damage.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. They may simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they could have frozen in extremely cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots may have invaded underground joints. Or there may be a problem with how they were installed to begin with.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will identify the problem and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other problems.

All Tapware Handled

Tapware Problems Sorted

Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?

Many clients over the years have told us how vexing it is to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You may not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it is echoing around the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it’s a serious issue.

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

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire new tap, our same day plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are well stocked with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we don’t have what you need, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we locate what you want.

From big to small, our Richmond on call plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and general plumbing services.

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

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it around the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the twine and flow off quietly.
