What do I do when a plumbing disaster strikes?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the power at the breaker box. Then, attempt to minimise any further leaking or flooding.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.
In the meantime, start mopping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and clear away significant possessions from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve is normally on the boundary of the property near the road. It is typically set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance as soon as possible. Our after hours Heckenberg plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.
Clogged pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a professional there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Whether it is the bathroom sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our urgent Heckenberg plumbers will quickly locate the issue and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.
With our well equipped vans, we have all we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
We suggest trying to clear minor blockages with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the clog, we do not suggest chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and can even cause more damage to the drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Have some of dishes to take care of? It is difficult to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.
When the hot water is not up to standard, you need it sorted quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.
Hot water leaks can swiftly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted speedily, it will become more expensive by the hour.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Heckenberg after hours plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our plumbers can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
Big and small, hidden in the ground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your residence are a hidden but integral part of your daily life. They carry fresh water to your home, and remove unclean water and sewage out.
Most of the time you barely even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out without delay, to prevent damage to your house, furnishings and well-being.
As soon as a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be on the road rapidly. Our team are waiting to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise yet more flooding.
How did my pipe start leaking?
Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a recently built home, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground junctions might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Our 24 hour plumbers will diagnose and fix your broken pipes or leaks expeitiously and cleanly.
Do you own a troublesome tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?
Many clients over the years have told us how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or broken tap. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s echoing throughout the house like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it is a sigificant problem.
It isn’t just frustrating drips though. Leaks can drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the 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 causing a lot of expensive damage.
Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vehicles are well equipped with parts and carry a modest selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we don’t have what you need, our plumber can install an interim faucet until we locate the style you need.
From after hours plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Heckenberg plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, the team also provide a wide selection of other plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?
If it’s not bad enough to be worth fixing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the sound. Or knot a piece of twine around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
We have been looking after the Heckenberg locale for many years, and our reputation for excellent quality work at an economical price sees our clients coming back to us again and again. Our goal is to assist you with all your plumbing needs, no matter what, where or when.
