FAQ After Hours Plumber

Help, I have a plumbing emergency!

Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the electricity off at the power panel if needed first.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to cut off all water to your residence.

Once that is done, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting, remove any important items from the area, and clean up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help, I do not know where the main water valve is!

The main isolating valve is generally on the boundary of the property near the road. It is typically set into the ground below a blue or black plastic cover.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

We know a obstructed drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of after hours plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.

A blocked drain is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Can I unclog the drain myself?

We recommend trying to clear simple blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it doesn't clear the clog, we don't recommend chemicals as they seldom work well, and can cause more damage to the drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water System Not Working

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put grubby 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’s a pain to have a proper clean up when the water is not hot.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Elanora Heights after hours plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

Big or little, hidden in the garden or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your residence are a unseen but vital part of daily activities. They bring clean water to your abode, and remove used water and sewage away.

Once there is a problem though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it repaired immediately to prevent damage to your house, your furnishings and even your health.

Our after hours plumbers are ready to get to you quickly, so contact our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe burst?

There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you reside in a cold region, they may have frozen and burst. They could simply be old and past their use-by. They might not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots can invade underground seals.

Our on call plumbers can diagnose and fix the broken pipes or leaks quickly and precisely.

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a broken tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

Many clients over the years have told us how annoying it can be to have a dripping or busted tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it’s echoing throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

It is not just annoying drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to resolve your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From after hours plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Elanora Heights plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, we can also offer a wide range of other plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of string of some type, and tie it onto the faucet spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and dribble off quietly.
