FAQ - After Hours Plumbers

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing calamity strikes? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the mains switch off on the power box.

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

Once that is sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there shortly to fix the leak.

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

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The primary isolating valve will normally be on the border of the property close to the road. It is typically set into the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.

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

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Erskine Park on call plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing asap. That is why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour Erskine Park plumbers will quickly locate the problem and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions 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.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

If you've got a plunger, it is worth trying to clear a clog yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely work well and can cause damage to your pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Hot Water System Issues

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Have some of dishes to deal with? It’s a pain to have a proper clean up when the water is not hot.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it hot again quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Erskine Park after hours plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again promptly. 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 the existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful team can help in finding the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Most of the time we do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden you’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved asap, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.

Why did my pipe burst?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may break down. If you reside in a very cold climate, they may have iced up and cracked. They may simply be aged and past their use-by. They might not have been installed properly to begin with. Tree roots may invade underground pipes.

When they arrive, our same day plumber will locate the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other issues.

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a problematic faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

We have been called to a range of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker at night when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a trivial irritant, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, call us now.

Whether you need an entire new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert on call plumbers can rapidly find the trouble and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Erskine Park after hours plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a wide range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a length of string of some kind, and tie it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and flow off quietly.
