FAQ Urgent Plumbers

I have a plumbing emergency, what do I do?

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

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest location and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

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

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things close to the leak, and mop up any water or place a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The primary shutoff valve is usually located on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the mains off can protect your residence from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Killara on call plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health hazard that needs attending to as soon as possible. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

Obestructed drains can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our emergency Killara plumbers will quickly locate the problem and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the problem to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to clear a blockage yourself. We suggest using a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely work well and can damage the pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Hot Water System Problems

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It’s a pain to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.

When your hot water has fallen short, give our team a call. We’ll be there swiftly to diagnose the problem and resolve it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Did you know about 30% of your household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to things stored nearby. Do not let hot water calamities empty your pocket, get them repaired asap.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Killara urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is aged and worn out, we can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

The pipes in your residence are a largely hidden but significant part of everyday activities. Large or little, in the garden, within the wall or the roof, they bring fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally we do not even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired without delay, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and health.

Our urgent plumbers are ready to be on the scene quickly, so call our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a range of reasons. They might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots could have forced open underground connections. Or there could be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

When the 24 hour plumber is present, they can locate the problems and repair them in a prompt and expert manner.

Tapware Leaks Fixed

Do you own a problem tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just busted?

We’ve been called to an assortment of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the wee hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial aggravation, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

It is not only vexing drips though. Leaks can push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole new tap, our emergency plumbers have got what you require. All the vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have the tap you require, we can put in an interim tap until we locate what you desire.

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

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of tap, we can usually replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very acceptable price.
