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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and clear away significant possessions from the area. If the mains water is turned off, then 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’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance fast. Our on call Richmond plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

A clogged pipe is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, 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 kitchen sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our after hours Richmond plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.

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 blocked drains ruin your day. Call our after hours Richmond emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a chilly day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It is hard to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.

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

Hot water leaks can rapidly push 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 repaired as soon as possible, it can become more costly by the day.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Richmond on call plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working 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 the old hot water cylinder isn’t repairable, our friendly plumbers can help in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our team can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

From the small clean water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there’s an issue.

Most of the time you barely even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden you’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be resolved asap, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and health.

Our on call plumbers are ready to get to you quickly, so ring us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and ruptured. In a new residence, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Underground pipes could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our after hours plumber arrives, they can identify the issues and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Issues Solved

Do you own a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply defective?

We’ve seen all sorts of tap issues over the years, and know that even a little drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential irritant, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your house, call our team now.

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

From large to small, our Richmond on call plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a broad selection of urgent and general plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very reasonable price.
