FAQ - After Hours Plumbers

What do I do when a plumbing disaster hits?

Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so switch the electricity off at the power panel if needed first.

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

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to solve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important possessions close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

The main isolating valve will be on the border of your property close to the road. It is usually set into the ground below a blue or black cover.

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

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your pipes are overflowing, you need help fast. Our after hours Lavender Bay plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour Lavender Bay plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to get you through until we return.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

If you have a plunger, it is a good idea to try to remove the blockage yourself. We recommend using a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom do a good job and can damage your pipes.

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

How did my 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 may have frozen and split. In a newer house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean joins may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our on call plumber will locate the problem and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if required to check for other issues.

Tapware Issues Fixed

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

A lot of our clientelle over the years have mentioned how frustrating it is to have a dripping or busted tap. You might not even be aware of the drip during the day, but at night when it’s echoing around the house like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a major issue.

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

If it’s not bad enough to need fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the racket. Alternatively tie some twine around the faucet aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
