When a leak begins spouting, or a drain is blocked, or the hot water simply isn’t, the last thing you want is to need to wait for a plumber to arrive. In an urgent plumbing situation, often the longer you wait, the worse things get.
Plumbing emergencies wait for no-one. They can cause huge problems at the most annoying time. This is why you need an emergency plumber you can rely on to be there when you phone. We respond and get there quickly, no matter what time of day it is.

Our highly trained plumbers have the knowledge, equipment and components to fix plumbing problems of all types quickly and economically. We have been looking after clients in the Mitchelton area for years, and our loyal clients keep coming back because they know we’ll do an efficient and clean job.

What should you do when you locate a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the breaker box. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to solve the problem.
While you wait, start cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and remove valuable items from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The primary shutoff valve is normally on the edge of the property close to the road. It is typically set in the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
We understand a clogged drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is never a good thing. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.
A obstructed pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. But if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our urgent Mitchelton plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.
With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are concluded.
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to clear a blockage yourself. We suggest using a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom do a good job and can cause damage to the drains.
Don’t let a obstructed pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
Had a hard day at work and badly require a hot shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Got a sink-full of dishes to deal with? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden discover that the water is lukewarm.
When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it hot again as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very swiftly.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Mitchelton emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 cylinder is not able to be fixed, our helpful team can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can schedule upgrades at a time that works for you as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there’s an issue.
Often, you never even recall them until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s generally a serious issue that needs to be sorted urgently before the building, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.
Our emergency plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can minimise further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.
Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a range of reasons. They may simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in very frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots could have invaded underground seals. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were set up in the first place.
Our after hours plumbers can identify and repair your broken pipes or leaks expeitiously and professionally.
Do you own a busted faucet? One that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?
We’ve seen a range of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor annoyance, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.
Not only can it keep the whole house awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise higher, or possibly cause damage to your house, contact our 24 hour plumber straight away.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to resolve your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Mitchelton plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we can also offer a broad selection of additional plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
If it’s not aggravating enough to need fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the sound. Or knot some string around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
