Help, I have a plumbing emergency!
What should you do when you discover a plumbing emergency? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the electricity at the power box. Then, attempt to minimise any further leaking or flooding.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to find the tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be at your home as soon as we can to save the day.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important possessions from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.
Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!
The main shutoff valve will normally be on the edge of the property near the road. It is typically set into the ground below a blue or black plastic cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
When your drains are overflowing, you want help straight away. Our urgent Athelstone plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.
Clogged pipes can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible however, you need someone there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our on call Athelstone plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

How did the pipe start leaking?
Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have iced up in very wintery weather and ruptured. Tree roots may have invaded underground pipes. Or there might be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.
Our after hours plumbers can diagnose and fix your burst pipes or leaks rapidly and precisely.
Do you own a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether broken?
A lot of our clientelle over the years have mentioned how frustrating it is to have a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s echoing throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant problem.
Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, give us a ring.
Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are fully equipped with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have the tap you require, we can install an interim faucet until we locate the style you need.
From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Athelstone plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, we can also provide a broad range of other plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?
If it is not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the racket. Alternatively tie a length of twine around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
