After Hours Plumbers - FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing emergency hits?

Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so turn the power off at the power box if needed first.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water tap to cut off all water to the home.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While waiting, remove any significant possessions from the area, and mop up any water or put a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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

You might have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally found on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?

If you have a plunger, it's worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We recommend using 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 seldom work well and can cause damage to your drains.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

From the little clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there is an issue.

Most of the time we barely even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you are standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out immediately, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and health.

Our after hours plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so contact our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a new house, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean connections may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our 24 hour plumbers can diagnose and fix the damaged pipes or leaks quickly and cleanly.

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether busted?

We’ve been called to an assortment of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial irritant, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you want a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers will speedily find the problem and resolve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From after hours plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too great or minor for our North Narrabeen plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, the team also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a length of twine of some kind, 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 string and trickle off quietly.
