FAQ Urgent Plumbers

What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe occurrs?

Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so turn the electricity off at the switchboard if needed first.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to cut off all the water to your house.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be at your place as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important items from the area, and mop up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

Help, I do not know where the main water valve is!

You may have been shown it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is found on the boundary near the road, typically under a blue or black cover.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Riverwood after hours plumbers know that a clogged pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we provide our urgent plumbing service.

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

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will arrive at your abode speedily to solve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the obstruction completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers come back.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

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

Don’t let a obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

The pipes in your residence are a largely hidden but integral part of daily activities. Big or little, in the garden, in the wall or the roof, they bring fresh water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Usually, people barely even remember their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a significant problem that must be sorted immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers immediately. We are waiting to assist Riverwood residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and split. In a newer home, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our same day plumber will identify the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipework if needed to check for other issues.

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a broken tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how annoying it is to have a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s reverberating around your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to resolve that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

From urgent plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too great or minor for our Riverwood plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we also offer a wide selection of other plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet 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.
