Same Day Plumbers - FAQ

Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!

What do you do when a plumbing disaster strikes? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if needed turn the power off on the switchboard.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest access point and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to save the day.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove valuable things from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

The main shutoff valve is usually positioned on the boundary near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can save your home from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

We understand a obstructed drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is never a happy circumstance. That is why our team of same day plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

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

Whether it is the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our urgent Punchbowl plumbers will quickly locate the issue and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as possible.

I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?

If you have a plunger, it's worth trying to clear the blockage yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, especially 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 drains.

Don’t let blocked pipes ruin your day. Ring our 24 hour Punchbowl emergency plumbing team now!

Hot Water Tank Not Working

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Got some of dishes to finish off? It’s hard to have a proper clean when the water is cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it sorted fast so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can swiftly push your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted speedily, it can become more expensive by the day.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Punchbowl same day plumbers immediately. We will get your 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 you do need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, requirements and area. If your whole hot water system needs improvements, we can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there is an issue.

Normally we don’t even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly we’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved as soon as possible, 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 Punchbowl residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they may have frozen and burst. In a new residence, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean joins could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our emergency plumber will identify the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if advised to check for other issues.

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a broken tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

We’ve been called to an assortment of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at night when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a minor annoyance, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

It is not just annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you need a whole new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers will quickly locate the issue and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Punchbowl with same day plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too extensive or small.

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

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth repairing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Or tie some string around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
