On Call Plumber - FAQ

Help, I have a plumbing emergency!

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

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

Once that’s done, give our team a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important things, wipe up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help, I do not know where the main water shutoff valve is!

The main shutoff valve is found on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can save your property from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

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

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you need help right now. Our on call Watsons Bay plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Obestructed drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes unblocked.

In the rare case that we can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find a temporary solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.

I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?

We suggest attempting to clear simple obstructions with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it does not clear the blockage, we do not suggest chemicals as they rarely get the job done well, and can cause more damage to your pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
