What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe occurrs?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the power off on the power box.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to stop all water to the home.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to resolve the problem.
While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important items, mop up any water, and place a container to catch any drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help, I do not know where the main water valve is!
The water main shutoff valve is usually positioned on the boundary near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning this off can save your property from more leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.
We understand a obstructed drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our crew of same day plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.
Blocked pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unblocked.
Whether it is the ensuite sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our urgent Riverwood plumbers will quickly locate the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.
In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers return.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to clear a blockage yourself. We suggest using a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely do a good job and can damage your pipes.
Don’t let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Call our urgent Riverwood emergency plumbers right away!
We generally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Have some of dishes to deal with? It’s difficult to have a proper clean when the water is cold.
If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you want it to be repaired as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can quickly identify the issue and get it resolved.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your pocket very rapidly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Riverwood same day plumbers right away. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can organise improvements at a time that suits you as well.
From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there is a problem.
Most of the time you don’t even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly we are standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed without delay, to prevent damage to your house, possessions and health.
When you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our same day plumbers as soon as possible. We are waiting to assist Riverwood residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the house.
Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can break down for various reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in very wintery weather and split. Tree roots may have forced open underground pipes. Or there might be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.
When they are at your home, our emergency plumber will locate the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if required to check for other issues.
Do you have a troublesome faucet? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright busted?
Many clients over the years have told us how frustrating it is to live with a dripping or defective tap. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but at night when it’s resounding throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a sigificant issue.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your house, call us now.
Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole new tap, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vehicles are fully equipped with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you need, we can install a temporary faucet until we track down the style you want.
From big to small, our Riverwood same day plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad range of emergency and day to day plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
Find a length of string of some type, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and dribble off quietly.
