I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
What should you do when you locate a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the electricity at the power panel. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be there promptly to solve the issue.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The primary shutoff valve is located on the boundary near the road, normally under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can protect your property from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
We understand a blocked drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our team of after hours plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.
Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes cleared.
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.
In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers return.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you've got a plunger, it is worth trying to clear a clog yourself. We suggest a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely work well and can cause damage to the pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Got a pile of of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a good clean when the water is cold.

Why did the pipe fail?
There are various reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you reside in a very cold climate, the pipes may have frozen and ruptured. They could just be aged and worn out. The pipes might not have been installed properly to begin with. Tree roots can invade underground junctions.
Once they are at your home, our emergency plumber will identify the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipework if required to check for other issues.
Do you own a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

Why is my tap dripping?
If it is not bad enough to be worth repairing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to minimise the sound. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
