I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the power off at the power box if needed first.
Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to stop all the water to the house.
Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the issue.
While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and position a container to catch any drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve is generally located on the boundary close to the road, under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can protect your residence from more leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
Our Bend of Islands 24 hour plumbers know that a clogged pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.
A obstructed pipe is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it yourself using a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.
With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.
I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?
If you have a plunger you can attempt to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please don't use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage your drain pipes.
Do not let obstructed drains ruin your day. Call our urgent Bend of Islands emergency plumbing team now!
It’s been a hard day at work and desperately want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Got a few dishes to take care of? It’s seldom opportune to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is cold.
When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it remedied as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Did you know around 30% of your household electricity bill is used for hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your house and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water problems harm your wallet, get them repaired promptly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Bend of Islands emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, requirements and location. If your whole hot water system requires improvements, we can schedule to do that in a timely manner as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there is a problem.
Most of the time we barely even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your home, furnishings and health.
Our emergency plumbers are ready to get to you right away, so ring our plumbers as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.
Why did my pipe start leaking?
Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older house, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and split. In a newer residence, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean connections could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When the on call plumber arrives, they can identify the problems and repair them in a quick and expert manner.
Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether defective?
A lot of customers over the years have told us how vexing it can be to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s echoing around the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a serious issue.
It’s not only aggravating drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need on hand to stop your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From big to small, our Bend of Islands emergency plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and day to day plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the string and trickle off quietly.
