It is the worst time when your kitchen faucet has started leaking, or the hot water cylinder has given up the ghost, or the drain is blocked. Leaks, broken tapsfaucets, hot water tanks and clogged drains may all be a pain.
Plumbing problems are not pre-booked and convenient. There are so many ways that a plumbing emergency can cause havoc, which is why we strive to be there as fast as we can, even if it’s public holiday or after hours.
No matter the day or time, our certified and quality Racecourse emergency plumbers will resolve your problems so you can get back to what you’d rather be doing again. Call our 24-hour staff immediately to get assistance with your Urgent plumbing requirements, 365 days of the year.
Our firm has been serving the Racecourse area for many years. All of our on call plumbers are highly trained, certified, and ready to fix whatever emergency you can throw them. We even make sure to clean up any mess before we go.
As well as emergency plumbing, we also do every day plumbing. If you’ve got a non-urgent plumbing job, phone or email our office and we’ll make sure it gets sorted. Our friendly reliable team are ready and waiting to serve you.
What should you do when you find a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the power at the breaker box. Then, attempt to minimise any further leaking or flooding.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to stop all water to the property.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start wiping up any water, put a container to catch drips, and remove valuable items from the area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The main shutoff valve will normally be on the border of your property near the road. It is typically set in the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
We know a obstructed pipe can be a major problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.
A obstructed drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!
Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our same day Racecourse plumbers will quickly locate the problem and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to clear a clog yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom do a good job and can damage the pipes.
Do not let a clogged pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
You tend to do not realise how much you rely on easy quick hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Need to finish up a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s barely warm.
If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it working again speedily. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.
Did you know around thiry percent of your home power bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water troubles hurt your wallet, get them fixed speedily.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Racecourse emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your old hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our reliable plumbers can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there’s a problem.
Most of the time you barely even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you’re standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed immediately, to minimise damage to your residence, furnishings and health.
Our emergency plumbers are set to be there right away, so call our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can cut back further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.
Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a range of reasons. The pipes may simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in extremely cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have invaded underground connections. Or there may be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.
Once our on call plumber arrives, they can identify the issues and fix them in a quick and expert manner.
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 faucet issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the wee hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a insignificant aggravation, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, call us now.
Whether you require an entire new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional after hours plumbers will rapidly diagnose the issue and remedy it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Racecourse plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, the team also offer a broad range of additional plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
