FAQ: On Call Plumber

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What should you do when you locate a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the power at the power panel. Then, attempt to minimise any further leaking or flooding.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff valve to cut off all the water to the house.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there quickly to solve the issue.

While you wait, start mopping up any water, put a bucket to catch any drips, and remove important possessions from the affected area. If the property 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 positioned on the property perimeter near the road, normally under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the mains off can protect your home from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

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

Blocked Drains Fixed

We know a blocked drain can be a major problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our team of on call plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Clogged pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes cleared.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our 24 hour Como plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.

I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?

We recommend attempting to clear minor clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it doesn't work, we do not recommend chemicals as they rarely get the job done well, and may even cause more damage to the drains.

Do not let a blocked drain get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water Tank Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to take care of? It is awkward to have a proper clean up when the water is not hot.

If the hot water is not hot enough, you want it sorted speedily. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can quickly identify the issue and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can quickly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed as soon as possible, it will become more costly by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Como on call plumbers straight away. We’ll 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.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there’s a problem.

Usually, we don’t even recall them until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a major issue that must be fixed immediately before your home, your belongings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our on call plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are waiting to take your call any time. Before they get there, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to prevent yet more damage.

How did the pipe fail?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps may fail. If you reside in a very cold location, the pipes may have iced up and ruptured. They might simply be old and past their use-by. They might not have been installed properly in the first place. Tree roots can grow into underground pipes.

When our 24 hour plumber arrives, they can locate the issues and fix them in a prompt and professional manner.

Tap Leaks Sorted

Do you own a problematic faucet? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

We have seen all sorts of tap issues over the years, and know that even a little drip can sound like elephants tapdancing in the small hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial aggravation, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call us now.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to fix that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Como with on call plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or small.

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

If it’s not annoying enough to need repairing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the racket. Alternatively tie a piece of string around the faucet spout long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
