Has the kitchen faucet turned into a fountain? Has the bathroom started overflowing at an inappropriate time? No hot water, just as family are due to arrive? Don’t let a leak, burst pipe, broken tap or hot water cylinder ruin your time.
Plumbing problems are never pre-booked or convenient. There are so many ways that a plumbing emergency can ruin everything, and that’s why we strive to be there as fast as possible, even when it is after hours or a public holiday.
No matter what the time, phone us and our 24 Hour plumbers will respond right away. We’ll be there quickly, and solve your Forest Glen on call plumbing issues speedily and efficiently so that your home can return to usual.
We have been looking after Forest Glen for years, and our specially trained plumbers know how, equipment and parts to solve all sorts of plumbing problems fast and efficiently. We’ll even clean up any mess we make before we go.
As well as on call 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 assist you.
What do you do when a plumbing disaster arises? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off at the power box.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate the tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once that is done, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there rapidly to fix the leak.
In the meantime, start mopping up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and remove significant things from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The primary shutoff valve is normally on the border of the property close to the road. It is typically set into the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.
It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Forest Glen urgent plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we have our on call plumbing service.
Clogged drains can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the drains unblocked.
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.
In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to get you through until we return.
We endorse trying to clear minor clogs with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the clog, we do not suggest chemicals as they seldom do a good job, and can cause more damage to your drains.
Don’t let a clogged drain get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
Had a hard day at work and desperately need a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have a few dishes to finish up? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is tepid.
When the hot water is not hot enough, you want it to be sorted quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.
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 about 30% of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very rapidly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Forest Glen on call plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your old hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
From the small fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there’s a problem.
Once there is an issue though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it resolved without delay to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your health.
The moment a leak is found, give us a call, and our on call plumbers will be on the road quickly. Our team are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they arrive, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce yet more leaking.
Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. They might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have frozen in very wintery weather and burst. Tree roots might have invaded subterranean seals. Or there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.
Once they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other problems.
Do you have a problematic faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?
We’ve seen a range of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at night when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a inconsequential irritant, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.
As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s hot water. Do not let the bills increase even more, or possibly cause damage to your residence, get hold of our 24 hour plumber straight away.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to resolve your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.
From on call plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Forest Glen plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, we also provide a wide range of other plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?
If it is not bad enough to need repairing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to minimise the racket. Or knot a length of string around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
