Help, I have a plumbing emergency!
What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off on the power box.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to stop all water to the home.
Once that is done, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve is usually positioned on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning this off can protect your home from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
When your drains are overflowing, you need help fast. Our emergency Colebee plumbers know how frustrating and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!
Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your home speedily to solve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you have a plunger handy you can try to break up the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please don't use chemicals as they rarely do the job properly and the chemicals can damage your drain pipes.
Do not let a obstructed pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
You often do not realise how heavily you count on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garden and really want a shower? Need to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s cold.
When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it sorted quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it hot again as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very swiftly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Colebee emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off 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 solution for your budget, requirements and location. If the whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is a problem.
Ususally you do not even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be resolved asap, to minimise damage to your residence, possessions and health.
Our emergency plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so ring us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.
How did my pipe fail?
Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have frozen and split. In a new house, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will diagnose the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if needed to look for other problems.
Do you have a troublesome tap? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?
Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. Something that might go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, disturbing your sleep.
It is not just aggravating drips though. Leaks may run up your 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.
Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our same day plumbers have got what you need. All the vans are well stocked with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have the tap you need, we can install a temporary faucet until we find the style you want.
As well as providing Colebee with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too extensive or too small.
The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?
If it is not aggravating enough to need fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to diminish the noise. Or knot a piece of twine around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
We have many years of combined experience looking after the residents of Colebee. Our many happy repeat clients prove our reputation for expert, quality, reasonably priced work. Our team aim to assist you with your emergency and non-urgent plumbing problems rapidly and efficiently.
