Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours 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 service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to cut off all the water to your house.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to solve the issue.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and clear away significant possessions from the area. If the house 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We realise a blocked pipe can be a major problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our team of after hours plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour Merricks plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and return 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 a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up following a freezing day? Have a pile of of dishes to finish up? It is a pain to have a good clean when the water is cold.

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

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of your household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very quickly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Merricks after hours plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. 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 the cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our professional team can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, our plumbers can organise improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

Big or small, buried underground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your residence are a concealed but significant part of everyday activities. They carry fresh water to your residence, and remove unclean water and sewage away.

Normally, we don’t even think about their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a significant issue that needs to be fixed urgently before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

When you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our after hours plumbers right away. We are waiting to help Merricks residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the home.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a recently built home, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will locate the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if needed to check for other damage.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Issues Resolved

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

We have been called to an assortment of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant annoyance, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks may run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vans are fully equipped with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have what you need, we can put in a temporary faucet until we find what you desire.

From large to small, our Merricks after hours plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a broad selection of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a piece of string of some type, and tie it around the tap 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.
