Emergency Plumbers - FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe strikes?

What should you do when you locate a plumbing emergency? Safety first! If there is water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the power at the breaker box. Then, try to reduce any further leaking or flooding.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a tap 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 leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to solve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The primary shutoff valve is usually found on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can save your house from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

How did the pipe start leaking?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may break down. If you live in a very cold climate, they might have frozen and ruptured. They might simply be old and past their use-by. They might not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots can invade subterranean seals.

Once they arrive, our urgent plumber will locate the issue and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipes if required to look for other problems.

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a troublesome tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up busted?

We’ve seen a range of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant irritant, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, give us a ring.

Whether you need an entire replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist 24 hour plumbers can rapidly identify the trouble and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From emergency plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too extensive or little for our Busby plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we also offer a broad range of additional plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
