What do I do when a plumbing disaster strikes?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the electricity off at the power box if needed first.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps 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 doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains valve to cut off all water to the property.
Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to resolve the problem.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important items from the area, and mop up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
You might know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally located on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
We realise a obstructed pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That is why our crew of on call plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.
A obstructed drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.
In the rare instance that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to get you through until our plumbers return.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you've got a plunger, it's a good idea to try to remove a blockage yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely do a good job and can cause damage to your pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
We generally don’t think about how heavily we count on easy fast hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Need to deal with some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and discover it’s lukewarm.
When the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it to be sorted as soon as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of your household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very rapidly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Richmond on call plumbers right away. We will get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a large amount 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 help pick a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and location. If your whole hot water system needs upgrading, we can schedule to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.
From the little clean water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there is a problem.
Normally, we don’t even think about them until something goes wrong. But when it does, it is usually a major problem that needs to be sorted out urgently before the building, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.
Our on call plumbers are ready to be on the scene quickly, so ring our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.
Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be old and worn out. Or they could have frozen in extremely wintery weather and burst. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean joints. Or there may be a problem with how they were installed to begin with.
Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the problem and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other issues.
Do you own a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether busted?
A lot of our clientelle over the years have mentioned how vexing it is to have a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is reverberating around your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it is a serious problem.
It’s not only irritating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our same day plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and have a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you want, we can install a temporary faucet until we track down what you want.
As well as providing Richmond with on call plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or too small.
Why is my faucet dripping?
Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can frequently replace dilapidated parts right then and there for a very modest cost.
