Our firm have been serving the North Hobart region for many years. All of our 24 hour plumbers are certified, highly trained, and are ready to resolve whatever sort of emergency you can send them. We even ensure to clear up any mess before we go.
We don’t just do after hours plumbing though, we’re also available for non-urgent plumbing jobs. Call or email our friendly dependable staff, and we’ll help you out with all your plumbing needs. We are ready and waiting, regardless of what the problem is or how quickly it needs to be solved.
What should you do when you discover a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the electricity at the switchboard. Then, try to reduce any further leaking or flooding.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to find the main valve 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 you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there quickly to solve the issue.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important possessions from the area, and wipe up any water or position a container to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
You may have been shown it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally found on the boundary close to the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.
We understand a blocked drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That is why our team of after hours plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.
A blocked drain is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our urgent North Hobart plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and clear 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 solve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.
If you have a plunger, it is a good idea to try to remove a clog yourself. We suggest using a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely work well and can cause damage to the pipes.
Don’t let a obstructed pipe get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We generally don’t think about how frequently we rely upon effortless quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garage and really need a shower? Need to finish off a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s lukewarm.
When the hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a call. We will be there promptly to diagnose the issue and fix it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get your life back to normal.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very rapidly.
When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our North Hobart after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help pick the best option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can organise improvements at a time that suits you as well.
The pipes in your home are a normally concealed but important part of everyday life. Large and little, under the ground, within the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.
Normally, people don’t even remember their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s a major problem that must be fixed urgently before your home, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.
As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our after hours plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist North Hobart residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it may help to turn off the water to the house.
There are various reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you reside in a very cold region, the pipes may have iced up and split. They may just be old and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been installed properly to begin with. Tree roots can force open underground junctions.
Once they arrive, our on call plumber will diagnose the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other damage.
Do you own a problematic faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?
Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a significant aggravation. Something that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, ruining your sleep.
Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, call us now.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to remedy your leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From large to small, our North Hobart after hours plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.
Why is my tap dripping?
If the drip is not aggravating enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the noise. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
