Noisy Tap? Call Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas

Tap Problems Call Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water & GasThere is not much more annoying in a residential household than a noisy, dripping tap. The sound of dripping tends to reverberate throughout the house at night when all is quiet, not to mention the waste of water over time, and noisy pipes and plumbing interrupt everyone.  You may think that dripping tap is just a small, annoying issue that can wait to be fixed or that the noisy pipes are just a quirky feature of your home, however these problems can often cause bigger, more costly issues if left unattended.

Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas are your local choice in plumbing repairs, no matter how big or small. You may simply need to replace a small part, or something bigger may be the issue, especially if you have multiple small leaks or strange noises occurring behind the walls of your home.

We specialise in small jobs such as:

  • Noisy Taps
  • Dripping Taps
  • Home Plumbing Maintenance and Inspection

Noisy Taps

Sometimes referred to as water hammer, the loud rattling and banging in your water pipes is the result of a shock wave of high water pressure in the pipes is caused by the sudden closing of a valve. It can also occur due to:

  • Plumbing design faults
  • Mineral deposits on the aerator
  • Sizing differences in pipes or taps
  • Scale Buildup
  • Faulty appliance solenoid valves

Dripping TapDripping Taps

An annoying but usually easy fix – unless the problem is occurring within your walls. Turn off all water sources and go outside and check your meter. If it’s spinning fast, you’ve more than likely got a leak in a pipe, so check immediately for damp patches on your walls or in the garden and call Mainline Plumbing professionals.

Slowly ticking over despite no water being run in the house is probably a faulty washer. Although easy to fix yourself, this can cost a lot of money literally dripping down the drain in wasted water so it’s best to get onto it straight away, or call an expert to assist you.

Leaking Vanity? Call Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas Today!

Wasted water

Bathrooms are wet places and water around your bathroom sink, or vanity, is not uncommon in most Australian homes. A small leak around the taps in your vanity sink may seem like nothing – in fact you may mistake it for the kids splashing water around or a result of some over enthusiastic teeth brushing, but it can cause major damage when not repaired before it becomes a big problem.

Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas specialise in repairing small problems before they become big, costly issues in homes throughout the South West. Whether it be a pipe dripping into the vanity cupboard or faulty taps above, the team at Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas can repair efficiently and affordably.

Vanity leaks are not always visible and can cause a lot of damage to:

  • Inside the Cupboards
  • On the Vanity Surface
  • To Your Water Bill

In the Cupboards

Check under the sink. A leak in the taps or in the pipes below will result in the vanity being wet – all the time. This will inevitably lead to rot in the cupboard material (usually wood, chip board or some form of melamine with plastic coating) and the need to replace the entire unit. Replacing a vanity is not a simple job and needs to be done by a professional, so save yourself labour, materials and the cost of a brand-new vanity and have the leaking pipes inspected and repaired by a professional.

On the Vanity Surface

Leaking pipe with towel

Check any bathroom and you’ll find some form of water pooling around the vanity sink. This is normal if you’ve just washed your hands or the kids have a tendency to play in the water more than wash with it, but if water is slowly dribbling around the base of the taps, its highly likely it will leak behind the sink itself and start to cause mould and rot.

 

To Your Water Bill

Whether it’s leaking from the pipes below, the taps above or dripping directly from the spout itself, that’s water being wasted and costing you money. Small leaks add up to big dollars on the water bill, increasing your consumption 24 hours a day.

Same Day Hot Water Unit Service with Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas

Hot Water by Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas BunburyHave you noticed that with the change in weather your hot water unit isn’t performing as well as it used to? Is your hot water only running lukewarm or does it take considerable time for the water to heat to a desirable temperature? It is likely that your hot water unit is faulty or, worst case scenario, on it’s last legs. Regular maintenance can ensure that hot water units are running efficiently, however it’s not a common priority for most home owners.

Hot water units are like any household appliance and will start to show signs of wear and tear after time. If your hot water is not running as it should, it may be a very small repair that is required to bring it back to life, or it could be something more serious. Don’t wait for your shower to run cold, Mainline Plumbing & Cheap Hot Water & Gas can assist with all areas of hot water unit maintenance and repair and offer a same day service on all hot water unit issues.
There are several reasons your hot water unit might be running less efficiently that might not involve complete replacement, including:

  • Age
  • Broken thermostat
  • Sediment Build up

Age

Hot water units age like any other household appliance and become less efficient over time. Generally, a hot water unit has a lifespan of approximately 10 years (dependant on model, make and level of household usage). If you are aware that your hot water unit is older than this, it is important to have it regularly serviced. A quick inspection may find a small fault that can be rectified and add a few more years to your older unit’s lifespan.

Broken Thermostat

Hot water installerThe thermostat is the component that regulates gas intake from an attached fuel supply and, if faulty or broken, will not allow the unit to receive the signal to heat your water. This is a simple problem to fix but must be done only by a professional who can asses the unit and decide if an alternate thermostat can be fitted to improve efficiency.

Sediment Build Up

Over time, water contaminants can build up the bottom of your hot water unit, preventing it from producing enough hot water and clogging up the pipes. It can also cause great damage to the heating element. Bunbury water often has high levels of calcium and other minerals, so it pays to get a local expert to inspect your hot unit. Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas know just how much sediment is too much for our local conditions.

Is Your Hot Water System Running Properly?

Hot water is more of a necessity than a luxury these days. Contact Mainline Plumbing & Cheap Hot Water & Gas today on 9791 1608 and ensure that your plumbing and hot water needs are being taken care of by the professionals with same day service.

Blocked Drains Down South? – Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas Can Help

Blocked drainageBlocked drains and plumbing pipes are a common occurrence in Australian households and can become a big problem very quickly. Not only to blockages damage pipes and cause bacteria to grow within them, they can be very costly to repair if the blockage causes a leak, requiring pipes to be replaced.

Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas have your solution to blocked drains from Bunbury to Dunsborough and surrounds. No matter whether it is your kitchen sink, toilet or outside drain blockage, Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas can professionally remove the blockage and get your plumbing running smoothly again.

Don’t put your family, your plumbing or your finances at risk. Blocked drains can cause issues such as:

  • Causing Illness and Infection
  • Money and Water Wastage
  • Damaging house foundations and plumbing pipes

Causing Illness and Infection

When a pipe is blocked, dirty water pools and bacteria forms, all laying dormant and leeching germs into the sinks and tubs you wash your bodies, dishes and clothes in. Skin conditions and asthma can be irritated when exposed to wastewater in blocked drains, not to mention the pungent odour of rotting food particles and mould. And nobody wants to wash their clothes or bathe in water that has been filtered through a mound of grease, hair and mouldy debris.

Money and Water Wastage

Wasted waterPutting up with a blocked pipe not only means your water runs less efficiently, it can result in water being wasted and an increase in water consumption bills. Blockages typically lead to build up of pressure and plumbing leaks, which, in turn, result in water being lost and damaging walls, outdoor structures and gardens.

Damaging House Foundations and Plumbing Pipes

When pipes in the foundations of your home are blocked, the integrity of the building material is compromised and costly damage can occur very quickly. Flooding is a very common occurrence when pipes are blocked due to the overflow of drains, which can not only damage floor surfaces, but internal cupboards as well.

Gas Cooking Appliances

Gas StoveGas cooking can be significantly more economical than electric elements and stove top cooking with gas is a traditional method that has maintained its’ popularity due to the more efficient cooking times and higher-grade quality of heat production.

Who Turned Off The Hot Water?

Hot Water by Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas BunburyAs winter approaches in the South West, hot water is in greater use as a means to warm up in the cooler nights. Hot water for showers and baths, as well as for washing dishes and clothing, is a luxury we take for granted in the modern world but is greatly missed immediately if it ceases to come through the pipes.

Has your hot water stopped working? Is the hot tap only bringing through lukewarm water, or completely stone cold?  There could be many reasons why your warm water is not flowing through to the sink, shower or drain that you wish it to. Here are some of the main culprits as to why….

  • Fixture Damage
  • Someone’s Using the Water
  • Simple Checks Required

Fixture Damage

If the hot water is running from all the other taps and shower heads in your home except one, then you will most likely find it is something faulty with that particular plumbing fixture. Broken showerhead mixing valves, which regulate the mix of hot and cold water, are a common issue, however your problem may extend into the pipes in the walls so be sure to call a plumber for any repairs and replacements.

Water Being Used Elsewhere

Hot Water by Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas BunburyIf your hot water flow significantly decreases or stops completely whilst you are in the shower or running dish water, your most likely culprit is that someone is using the water elsewhere in the house or that the hot water has ‘run out’. It can take over 30 mins for some water heaters to re-heat a full tank of water and a household’s increasing number of showers, loads of washing, dishwasher or sink fills can tax your hot water system’s maximum capacity. An instantaneous hot water unit can  simply heat the required amount of water as it moves through a heated coil, that may be able to assist with your growing families water requirements.

Simple Checks Required

Is the electricity supply turned on or pilot light still lit? Have you checked the water temperature settings?  If all the basic checks come back with no reason why your system shouldn’t be functioning properly, it’s time to call in the experts.

Help! My ORG (Overflow Relief Gully) Is Full Of Sand!

ORG-photoIt’s one of the most common occurrences in Australian residential homes – the blocked ORG! With the primary culprit being children and their tendency to lift the easily removable plastic grate and fill the long drop hole with sand, rocks, garden waste or even small toys, Mainline Plumbing and Cheap Hot Water and Gas have seen their fair share of plumbing problems stemming from this issue.

All properties in Australia require an Overflow Relief Gully (ORG); a grated drain that acts like a relief valve, located outside (usually on the ‘wet’ side of the house) that prevents a blocked sewer emptying its contents into your home. An ORG has a grate that pops out and allows the sewerage to overflow freely outside if you have a blockage in your plumbing, which is also a popular outside play thing for small children and some dogs to remove and take off with.

Some points to remember with ORG’s include:

  • Regular Inspections
  • Check Your ORG’s Height
  • Older Home? Check You’ve Got One.

Regular Inspections

Overflow Relief Gully’s have a major function in your home so it’s imperative to keep them well maintained. Inspect your ORG every so often to make sure that it’s not full of water (which means a blockage) and that it hasn’t been covered up with sand or other ‘matter’ and just check your downpipes and storm water are not connected into the ORG, as it can back up the sewer system (which is not designed to carry storm water).

Check Your ORG’s Height

Usually the ORG is at least 100mm lower than the lowest waste outlet (basin, toilet, shower drain) in your home and at least 150mm above the surrounding ground to prevent storm water flowing into it.

Older Home? Check You’ve Got One.

If your home was built prior to 1976, it won’t have an ORG, but if it has been renovated or you’re looking to renovate the house, you will need to ensure an ORG is installed. No house is ever immune to a plumbing blockage so to not have an ORG on your property means you could find yourself with a nasty mess, an emergency plumbing callout, or worse, an insurance claim.

Who Can Help Me With My Blocked ORG?

If the fixtures in your house don’t drain properly, a quick inspection of your ORG will tell you if the blockage is on the main sewer line or just the pipework from that particular fixture. If the ORG is clear, this indicates the blockage is in the pipework to the fixture itself. If the ORG is full of water, you may find you have a blockage down the line or it’s been filled with foreign matter that shouldn’t be there.
