Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

After Hours Plumbers 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.

Many 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 find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating valve to cut off all water to your house.

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

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any important things, clean up any water, and position a bucket to catch any drips. You also should turn 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.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

We understand a blocked pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is never a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of after hours plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

A blocked drain is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it with a plunger. However if you can not, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our same day Cockle Bay plumbers will quickly locate the issue and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

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 solve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.

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.

Do not let blocked drains ruin your day. Call our same day Cockle Bay emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We tend to do not realise how heavily you rely upon easy quick hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a wash? Time to finish up a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s lukewarm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it remedied fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again as soon as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can swiftly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed asap, it will become more expensive by the day.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Cockle Bay after hours plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. 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 you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking the best option for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do that in a opportune manner as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

Large or little, hidden in the ground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your home are a concealed but vital part of daily activities. They carry fresh water to your house, and remove used water and sewage out.

Normally, you do not even remember their existence unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is usually a major issue that must be sorted immediately before the building, your possessions or even your health are damaged or ruined.

When you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our after hours plumbers as soon as possible. We are waiting to help Cockle Bay residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a new residence, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean connections may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our same day plumber will locate the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if needed to look for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a troublesome tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping faucet can be a major irritation. A little thing that can go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the wee hours, destroying your sleep.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s 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 causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to stop your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Cockle Bay with after hours plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or minor.

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

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can often replace worn out parts on the spot for a very acceptable expenditure.
