Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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

Once that is done, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to fix the leak.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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 behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our on call Cockle Bay plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Blocked drains can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour Cockle Bay plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will 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.

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

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have some dishes to take care of? It is never convenient to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is cold.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it sorted quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted fast so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of your household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very swiftly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Cockle Bay on call plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot 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 able to be fixed, our friendly plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can schedule upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the little clean water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there’s a problem.

Often, we barely even remember their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s a serious issue that must be fixed immediately before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

Our on call plumbers are set to be there quickly, so contact our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can cut back further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. They might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have frozen in extremely cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots may have invaded underground connections. Or there could be an issue with how the pipes were set up in the first place.

When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if required to check for other problems.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

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

Many customers over the years have mentioned how irritating it is to have a dripping or busted tap. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s echoing throughout the house like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it is a sigificant issue.

It is not just annoying drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you require an entire replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert 24 hour plumbers will rapidly diagnose the trouble and solve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Cockle Bay on call plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the tap spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and dribble off quietly.
