What do I do when a plumbing disaster hits?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so switch the electricity off at the power box if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to find the water valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to solve the problem.
While you wait, start mopping up any water, place a container to catch any drips, and remove valuable things from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The primary isolating valve will normally be on the edge of your property close to the road. It is typically set in the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your drains are overflowing, you need help quickly. Our on call Blackett plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.
A clogged pipe is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether it is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.
In the rare case that we can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to get you through until we come back.
I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?
We suggest trying to clear simple clogs with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it does not clear the clog, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and can even cause more damage to your pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
We generally take our hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Have a few of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a proper clean up when the water is cold.

The pipes in your residence are a normally hidden but important part of everyday life. Big or little, in the ground, in the walls or the roof, they bring clean water to your home and take the used stuff away.
Usually, we don’t even think about their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a significant issue that needs to be fixed urgently before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.
Our on call plumbers are set to be there right away, so ring us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can minimise further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.
Why did my pipe fail?
There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps may fail. If you live in a extremely cold location, the pipes may have iced up and ruptured. They could simply be old and dilapidated. They may not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots may grow into underground joins.
When they are at your home, our urgent plumber will locate the issue and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other issues.
Do you have a busted faucet? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?
We have seen all sorts of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a trivial annoyance, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your residence, call us now.
Whether you want an entire replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist emergency plumbers can rapidly locate the trouble and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.
As well as serving Blackett with on call plumbing of all types, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too great or little.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it around the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the string and dribble off quietly.
