What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the power off on the power panel.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to find the tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They will be there quickly to solve the problem.
While you wait, start wiping up any water, put a container to catch drips, and remove important items from the area. If the mains water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The primary shutoff valve is usually located on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can protect your house from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Riverwood emergency plumbers understand that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs attending to asap. That’s why we provide our on call plumbing service.
Clogged drains can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a professional there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.
With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.
If you've got a plunger, it's a good idea to try to clear the blockage yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely work well and can cause damage to the drains.
Do not let clogged pipes ruin your day. Ring our same day Riverwood emergency plumbing team now!
We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Time to put muddy kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a wintery day? Have a few of dishes to finish off? It is hard to have a good wash when the water is lukewarm.
When your hot water has let you down, give our team a call. Our plumbers will be there quickly to diagnose the problem and get it fixed. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can repair them and get you back to normal life.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very rapidly.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Riverwood on call plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can help pick a suitable option for your budget, requirements and area. If the whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.
The pipes in your residence are a largely hidden but integral part of everyday life. Large or small, underground, in the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to your home and take the used stuff away.
As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your residence, your furnishings and even your health.
Our on call plumbers are prepared to be on the scene quickly, so call us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.
Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean connections. Or there might be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.
Once they are at your home, our after hours plumber will locate the issue and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipework if advised to check for other problems.
Do you own a annoying faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?
We have been called to an assortment of tap problems over the years, and know that even a little drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at night when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a minor irritant, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.
As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even further, or possibly cause damage to your house, get hold of our same day plumber straight away.
Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our emergency plumbers have got what you require. All our vehicles are fully stocked with parts and carry a modest selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have the faucet you want, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we track down what you want.
From on call plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too extensive or small for our Riverwood plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also offer a wide range of other plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?
