Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ Urgent Plumbers

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 valve or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you wait, start wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important possessions from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 taps also.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you need help right now. Our urgent Whitford plumbers know how disheartening and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

A obstructed drain is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether there is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require available to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can put an interim 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 Tank Issues

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Have a pile of of dishes to finish off? It’s awkward to have a proper clean up when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has let you down, give our team a call. Our team will be there swiftly to figure out the problem and resolve it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

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

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Whitford urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not able to be fixed, our friendly team can help pick the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

The pipes in your home are a generally concealed but vital part of daily life. Big or little, in the garden, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they carry fresh water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Normally, you never even remember them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s generally a serious issue that needs to be sorted out immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road rapidly. Our team are ready to take your call any time. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise further flooding.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and split. In a recently built house, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean seals may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our 24 hour plumbers can identify and repair the broken pipes or leaks promptly and precisely.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

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

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a serious aggravation. A little thing that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums at 2am, ruining your shuteye.

It is not only frustrating drips though. Leaks may 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 small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

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

From big to small, our Whitford urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and dribble off quietly.
