    Gas Leaks

    1. Gas Leaks

    There is no question that a gas leak requires 24/7 emergency plumbing. What are the signs you have a gas leak? Be aware of things like plants dying, people getting headaches inside, and a gas-like smell (think rotten eggs) in the atmosphere. Contact our fully qualified emergency gas plumber immediately if you suspect a leak. 


    What causes a gas leak emergency? 

    Gas emergencies can result from faulty appliance installation, appliance malfunctions, poor ventilation, ageing or damaged gas pipes, or wear and tear. 



    2. Blocked Drains

    Blocked drains don’t always require emergency plumbers. However, it will be very evident when they do! Clogged pipes can lead to flooding, wastewater backing up, drains overflowing with contaminated water and even a burst pipe. 


    What causes a blocked pipe emergency? 

    Depending on the drain, all sorts of things can cause blockages, from fats and food waste in the kitchen to soap and lint build-up in the laundry and hair in the shower.


    3. Overflowing Toilet

    Toilet repairs are often considered a plumbing emergency, especially if there is only one toilet in the home. A clogged or overflowing toilet can be a health hazard and result in the build-up of unpleasant odours. 


    What causes toilet plumbing emergencies?

    Depending on the nature of the problem, the reasons that led to it might include sewer line issues, foreign objects getting stuck in pipes, overuse of toilet paper, flapper valve issues, or even just an old toilet that needs replacing.

    4. Broken Hot Water System 

    Hot water repairs typically require emergency plumbing for one very obvious reason - it’s freezing cold without them! 


    What causes hot water system emergencies? 

    Your hot water system could break down for many reasons, including sediment build-up, corrosion, overuse, old age, electricity or gas supply issues, a faulty thermostat, or leaks. 


    5. Burst Pipes 

    A burst pipe can cause significant water damage and result in costly repair work. We strongly recommend a root risk analysis to detect potential root piercings and other intruding obstacles. 


    What causes a burst pipe emergency? 

    Most burst pipes are caused by some kind of impact such as something falling on them. Here in Sydney, we experience many root damage caused by trees looking for underground water.


    Do You Really Need Emergency Plumbers?

    Depending on the severity of your issue, you might not actually require emergency plumbing services. It might sound strange, but we will be the first ones to let you know if that’s the case. Why? Because we’re big believers in honesty and transparency, ensuring that you're always in control of your plumbing needs. 


    Emergency plumbing requires someone on the job ASAP, no matter what the time of day or night. This comes at a cost, which we have to pass on as an emergency surcharge. This is standard industry practice. So, if you contact us and we think your plumbing problems can actually be handled during standard business hours, we will tell it to you straight. It’s then up to you to decide. If we can help you save some money, we will.
