What do I do when a plumbing disaster hits?
What should you do when you find a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If there is water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the electricity at the switchboard. Then, attempt to reduce any more leaking or flooding.
If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest access point or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as possible to save the day.
While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things, mop up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
I don’t know where the main water tap is!
The primary shutoff valve is located on the property perimeter close to the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning this off can save your property from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.
When your drains are overflowing, you want help right now. Our urgent Shoalwater plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
Clogged drains can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your home quickly to solve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
In the rare case that we can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you have a plunger handy you can try to clear the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please don't use chemicals as they seldom get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage your drain pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Got a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a good clean up when the water is not hot.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed asap so your life can get back to normal.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very swiftly.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Shoalwater urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off 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 team can assist in picking the best option for your budget, needs and area. If your entire hot water system needs improvements, we can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.
Large or small, buried under the ground or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your home are a hidden but integral part of your everyday activities. They carry fresh water to your house, and take dirty water and sewage away.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers right away. We are waiting to help Shoalwater residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.
Why did my pipe fail?
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have frozen and burst. In a recently built home, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once they arrive, our on call plumber will identify the problem and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if advised to look for other problems.
Do you have a broken faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?
A lot of customers over the years have told us how vexing it can be to have a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s echoing around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a sigificant issue.
Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call us now.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to fix that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From urgent plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or minor for our Shoalwater plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we can also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and flow off quietly.
