Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ - Urgent Plumber

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

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there promptly to solve the issue.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin cleaning up any water, put a container to catch drips, and clear away important possessions from the 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 called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Urgent Plumber Ready

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you need help straight away. Our urgent Highett plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Obestructed drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

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

In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers return.

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 clogged pipe get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

Had a hard day at work and badly require a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a pile of dishes to take care of? It’s rarely convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is cold.

When the hot water is not up to standard, you want it repaired as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can quickly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very rapidly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Highett urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and area. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, we can organise to do that in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

The pipes in your home are a largely unseen but vital part of daily life. Large or small, under the ground, in the wall or the ceiling, they carry clean water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Normally, we do not even remember their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is a significant problem that must be resolved urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be with you quickly. We are ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent further leaking.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for various reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in extremely frigid weather and burst. Tree roots could have grown into underground seals. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were set up to begin with.

When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will diagnose the problem and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other problems.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Issues Fixed

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

Many customers over the years have told us how aggravating it can be to have a dripping or busted tap. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it’s reverberating around your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant problem.

It’s not only vexing drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, 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.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to stop that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Highett with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or too small.

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

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of tap, we can often replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very modest expenditure.
