24 Hour Plumber: FAQ

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What should you do when you locate a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If there is water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the power at the power box. Then, attempt to minimise any further leaking or flooding.

If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest access point or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important items, mop up any water, and put a container to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You might know the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally positioned on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We realise a blocked pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it is the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is never a good thing. That’s why our team of 24 hour plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Blocked drains can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our same day Middle Cove plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

We recommend trying to clear minor blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not work, we don't suggest chemicals as they seldom work well, and can even cause more damage to the pipes.

Do not let a obstructed pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water Tank Issues

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Have a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s difficult to have a good clean when the water is not hot.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it remedied asap so your life can get back to normal.

Did you know around thiry percent of your home electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water disasters damage your pocket, get them fixed fast.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Middle Cove 24 hour plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a large amount 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 able to be overhauled, our professional team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can arrange improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a largely unseen but indispensible part of your everyday activities. Large or little, under the ground, in the wall or the ceiling, they bring fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally we never even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we are standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your house, belongings and well-being.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our 24 hour plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re waiting to answer any time. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce further flooding.

How did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have frozen and cracked. In a newer house, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground pipes may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our after hours plumbers will identify and fix your broken pipes or leaks expeitiously and expertly.

Tap Leaks Resolved

Do you own a defective faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?

We’ve been called to an assortment of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker at 2am when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a minor irritant, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks can drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, 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.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a modest selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have the faucet you require, we can put in an interim tap until we track down the style you need.

From 24 hour plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too extensive or minor for our Middle Cove plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, the team also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?

Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and flow off quietly.
