I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so turn the electricity off at the breaker box if needed first.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the issue.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help, I don’t know where the main water valve is!
The main shutoff valve is usually positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the mains off can protect your home from more leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
When your pipes are overflowing, you need help right now. Our on call Richmond plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging clogged pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.
Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unclogged.
Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our emergency Richmond plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
We recommend attempting to clear minor clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it does not work, we don't suggest chemicals as they seldom work well, and may cause more damage to your pipes.
Do not let a obstructed drain ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost following a wintery day? Got a pile of of dishes to finish up? It is awkward to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.
When your hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a ring. Our plumbers will be there swiftly to figure out the problem and fix it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get you back to normal life.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very rapidly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Richmond on call plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 the old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful team can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.
From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is a problem.
Once there is an issue though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it repaired asap to prevent damage to your home, your furnishings and even your health.
As soon as a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our on call plumbers will be on the road quickly. We’re ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent further damage.
How did my pipe burst?
Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a newer house, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Underground connections might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once they arrive, our urgent plumber will locate the issue and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if needed to check for other damage.
Do you own a irksome tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?
Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a significant aggravation. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, disturbing your shuteye.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to resolve your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.
As well as serving Richmond with on call plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or small.
Why is my faucet dripping?
Find a length of string of some type, and tie it around the tap spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and flow off quietly.
