Help, I have a plumbing emergency!
What do you do when a plumbing emergency strikes? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not play well together safely, so if you need to, turn the power off on the power panel.
If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once that’s done, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you rapidly to fix the leak.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant items from the area, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The primary shutoff valve will normally be on the boundary of the property near the road. It is typically set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
Our Como on call plumbers understand that a blocked pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing right away. That is why we provide our urgent plumbing service.
A clogged drain is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.
In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.
I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?
If you have a plunger handy you can attempt to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please don't use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage your drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Got some of dishes to take care of? It is awkward to have a good wash when the water is cold.
If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it sorted asap. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very rapidly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Como urgent plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system needs upgrading, we can schedule to do that in a timely manner as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there’s an issue.
Normally, we don’t even remember their existence until something goes wrong. But when it does, it is generally a major problem that must be sorted out immediately before the building, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.
The moment a leak is found, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. We’re waiting to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise further leaking.
Why did the pipe start leaking?
There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you live in a cold location, they may have frozen and ruptured. They might simply be aged and dilapidated. They may not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots can force open subterranean junctions.
Our on call plumbers can diagnose and fix your broken pipes or leaks promptly and efficiently.
Do you have a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether busted?
Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a serious aggravation. Something that may go unnoticed in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, ruining your shuteye.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your house, call us now.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to fix your leak. The team 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 required.
As well as serving Como with urgent plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too great or minor.
Why is my tap dripping?
If it is not bad enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie a piece of twine around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
