After Hours Plumbers - FAQ

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

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

A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to cut off all the water to the home.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as possible to save the day.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start wiping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and remove important possessions from the area. If the mains water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

The main isolating valve will normally be on the border of your property near the road. It is usually set in the ground below a blue or black plastic cover.

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

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Woollahra emergency plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a serious health risk that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

A obstructed pipe is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your home rapidly to solve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

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

I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?

If you have a plunger you can attempt to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please do not use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage the pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Hot Water System Not Working

We generally do not realise how much you count upon easy fast hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Time to take care of a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s barely warm.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you want it remedied fast. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Woollahra after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We will get your hot water working again quickly. 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 the cylinder is not repairable, our helpful team can help pick the best solution for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is aged and worn out, we can schedule improvements at a time that suits you as well.

From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there is a problem.

Ususally you barely even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you’re looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out without delay, to prevent damage to your home, belongings and health.

When you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our after hours plumbers without delay. Our team are waiting to assist Woollahra residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.

Why did the pipe fail?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you reside in a very cold climate, the pipes may have iced up and cracked. They may just be aged and dilapidated. They might not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots may force open subterranean connections.

Once the same day plumber is present, they can locate the problems and fix them in a prompt and expert manner.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our on call plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a modest choice of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the faucet you want, we can put in an interim faucet until we locate what you need.

From large to small, our Woollahra after hours plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a wide selection of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and trickle off quietly.
