Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumber - 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 still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our team a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you rapidly to get things sorted.

In the meantime, start mopping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and clear away important items from the affected 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help asap. Our emergency Highett plumbers know how frustrating and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

A obstructed pipe is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our after hours Highett plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are finished.

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.

Do not let a blocked pipe 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 Leaks

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Got some of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a proper clean when the water is cold.

If the hot water is not hot enough, you need it to be working again as soon as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can quickly push the power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted speedily, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Highett emergency plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your old hot water cylinder isn’t repairable, our friendly plumbers can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our team can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a normally hidden but key part of daily activities. Big or little, under the ground, within the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it fixed immediately to prevent damage to your home, your possessions and even your health.

When you locate a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist Highett residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.

Why did the pipe burst?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps might burst. If you reside in a cold region, the pipes might have frozen and ruptured. They might simply be old and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots may force open subterranean junctions.

Once they are at your home, our after hours plumber will diagnose the issue and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other problems.

All Taps Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply busted?

Many clients over the years have told us how annoying it can be to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at night when it’s reverberating around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a major problem.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your residence, call us now.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vehicles are fully equipped with parts and have a modest selection of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we do not have what you want, we can install an interim tap until we locate the style you need.

From emergency plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too big or minor for our Highett plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, the team can also provide a broad range of additional plumbing services.

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

Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very modest expenditure.
