Emergency Plumber - FAQ

Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!

What do you do when a plumbing calamity arises? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if needed turn the mains switch off on the switchboard.

If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water valve for your property. If you are unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.

While you wait, begin mopping up any water, place a container to catch any drips, and clear away significant possessions from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

I do not know where the main water tap is!

The main shutoff valve is generally on the boundary of your property close to the road. It is usually set in the ground below a blue or black plastic cover.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Wetherill Park on call plumbers know that a blocked drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

Obestructed drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our 24 hour Wetherill Park plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

We recommend trying to clear simple clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't work, we don't recommend chemicals as they seldom work well, and can cause more damage to the drains.

Don’t let a obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Got some of dishes to finish off? It’s hard to have a proper clean up when the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it repaired promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know around thiry percent of your home electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your house and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water problems damage your pocket, get them repaired fast.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Wetherill Park emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. 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 your cylinder is not fixable, our helpful plumbers can help pick the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is aged and worn out, we can arrange for repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

The pipes in your house are a generally unseen but vital part of everyday life. Large or small, in the ground, in the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Often, we never even remember them unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it is usually a major issue that needs to be fixed urgently before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers as soon as possible. We are waiting to assist Wetherill Park residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for a range of reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have iced up in very cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean pipes. Or there could be a problem with how they were installed to begin with.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will diagnose the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if required to look for other issues.

Tap Problems Fixed

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a serious vexation. A little thing that may go unheard in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like a jack hammer at 2am, disturbing your deams.

It is not just annoying drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to resolve your leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if required.

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

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
