Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency 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.

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

Once that’s done, give our plumber a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any significant items, clean up any water, and put a container 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Sunnyhills after hours plumbers know that a clogged pipe can be a serious health risk that needs attending to right away. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our after hours Sunnyhills plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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 a blocked pipe send your day down the tubes. 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 tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a wintery day? Have a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s a pain to have a good clean up when the water is cold.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it hot again asap. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

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

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Sunnyhills emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. 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 old hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our friendly plumbers can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can schedule an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

The pipes in your house are a generally unseen but very important part of daily activities. Big or little, in the earth, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they carry clean water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.

Most of the time you barely even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out without delay, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and health.

When you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist Sunnyhills residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you own an older house, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have frozen and ruptured. In a newer house, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean junctions could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the after hours plumber is present, they can identify the problems and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

Many our clientelle over the years have told us how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is resounding throughout the house like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a sigificant problem.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even further, or possibly cause damage to your residence, ring our after hours plumber right away.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have what you require, we can install an interim tap until we find the style you need.

As well as providing Sunnyhills with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or minor.

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

Find a length of twine of some type, and tie it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and dribble off quietly.
