Frequently Asked Questions - Important

After Hours Plumber - FAQ

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

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

Once that is done, give our team a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to fix the leak.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things, clean up any water, and place a container to catch any 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 may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Alfriston urgent plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing right away. That’s why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unblocked.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our urgent Alfriston plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need available to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are completed.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Don’t let a obstructed drain ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It is hard to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it hot again as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your pocket very quickly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Alfriston after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 your existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our team can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

The pipes in your home are a largely unseen but important part of your daily activities. Big or little, in the earth, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring fresh water to you and take the used stuff away.

Most of the time you do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be resolved asap, to minimise damage to your house, furnishings and well-being.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our after hours plumbers will be on the road quickly. Our team are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise further leaking.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. The pipes may simply be old and worn out. Or they could have frozen in very frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have grown into underground seals. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Once the urgent plumber arrives, they will isolate the problems and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a troublesome faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how frustrating it is to live with a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it is reverberating throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a sigificant problem.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Don’t let the bills rise higher, or possibly cause damage to your house, ring our urgent plumber right away.

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our urgent plumbers have got what you require. All the vehicles are fully stocked with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we don’t have the tap you require, we can put in a temporary tap until we locate what you need.

As well as serving Alfriston with after hours plumbing of all types, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or too small.

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

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and dribble off quietly.
