After Hours Plumbers - FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing disaster hits?

Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so switch the power off at the breaker box if needed first.

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 locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to save the day.

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

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

You might have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is located on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black cover.

It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Hot Water System Not Working

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost following a chilly day? Have a pile of of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a proper clean up when the water is not hot.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you want it to be remedied speedily. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very rapidly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Carlingford after hours plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. They might simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in very wintery weather and burst. Tree roots may have invaded underground joints. Or there could be a problem with how the pipes were set up in the first place.

Once our 24 hour plumber is present, they will locate the issues and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether defective?

We have been called to a range of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a little drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential irritant, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

Whether you require a whole replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist on call plumbers will quickly identify the cause and solve it. Our plumbers even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Carlingford with after hours plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or minor.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

Find a length of string of some type, and tie it onto the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and flow off quietly.
