FAQ Urgent Plumbers

What do I do when a plumbing calamity strikes?

What should you do when you discover a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the power at the power panel. Then, attempt to reduce any further leaking or flooding.

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

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be at your place as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important items, mop up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

You might have been shown the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Elanora Heights emergency plumbers understand that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs attending to immediately. That is why we provide our urgent plumbing service.

Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until we come back.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

If you've got a plunger, it's a good idea to try to clear a clog yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely do a good job and can damage your drains.
