Leading Plumber Kewdale

If you’ve got a burst pipe, the first thing to do is turn off your main water supply. This is usually located near your water metre, often outside or in a cupboard. 

Once the water is shut off, turn on the taps to drain any remaining water from the pipes to minimise further damage. While waiting for our plumber to arrive, try to mop up any water to prevent extensive damage to floors and furniture.

Brown or discoloured hot water usually indicates rust or sediment build-up in your hot water system or pipes. This can occur as your water heater ages or if your pipes are corroding. It’s essential to address this quickly to prevent further damage to your plumbing. Contact Bingham Plumbing & Gas, and we’ll inspect your hot water system to determine whether repairs or a system replacement is necessary.

If your water bills seem consistently higher than expected, despite efforts to conserve water, you may have an undetected leak in your plumbing system. Check for leaking taps, dripping showers, or constantly running toilets, which can silently waste significant amounts of water. Another possible cause could be hidden leaks in the pipes, often under the house or in the walls. 

If you’ve noticed a damp spot forming on your ceiling, it could indicate a leak in the plumbing above. Avoid waiting too long, as this can lead to serious water damage. 

Turn off the water supply to the affected area if possible, and contact Bingham Plumbing & Gas immediately. Our team will inspect the source of the leak, repair the issue, and advise you on any additional measures needed.

A slow-draining toilet is often caused by a blockage in the pipe or the toilet’s trap. You can attempt to resolve it by using a plunger to remove any minor obstructions. If that doesn’t fix the issue, there could be a more significant blockage further down the line. In such cases, it’s best to call Bingham Plumbing & Gas to assess the problem and professionally clear the blockage to restore your toilet’s proper function.

If there’s a foul smell coming from your drain, it’s likely due to a dry trap. The trap is a plumbing feature designed to hold water and act as a barrier that prevents unpleasant sewer gases from entering your home. When the trap isn’t used regularly, such as in a floor waste or drain that’s seldom utilised, the water within can evaporate over time. This evaporation breaks the seal, allowing foul odours to escape. 

To fix this, simply pour water into the trap, which will replenish the water seal and stop the smell from permeating your living space.

The clunking or banging noise, often referred to as “water hammer,” is caused by a sudden change in water pressure within your pipes. This happens when water flow is quickly shut off, causing vibrations in the plumbing. Over time, it can damage your pipes if left unchecked. Call Bingham Plumbing & Gas to inspect your piping and determine the cause of the noise and the solution to it.

If you suspect a gas leak, act immediately to ensure safety. Shut off the gas supply at the metre, open windows for ventilation, and avoid using any electrical switches or open flames. Once safe, call Bingham Plumbing & Gas for emergency gas repair services. 

A dripping tap is often caused by a worn-out washer or O-ring inside the tap assembly, or mineral deposits may have built up around the valve seat. While it may seem like a minor issue, a dripping tap can waste a significant amount of water over time. 

Low water pressure in your shower can be caused by several issues, including blockages in the showerhead, a faulty pressure regulator, or sediment build-up in your pipes. In some cases, a hidden leak in the plumbing system could be the cause. Bingham Plumbing & Gas can assess your plumbing, diagnose the issue, and restore your water pressure to ensure a better shower experience.
