What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe occurrs?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the electricity off at the power panel if needed first.
If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest location and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.
Once that is done, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to fix the leak.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant items close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The primary shutoff valve will generally be on the edge of the property close to the road. It is typically set into the ground below a blue or black cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.
Our Yellow Rock after hours plumbers realise that a obstructed drain can be a major health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That is why we have our same day plumbing service.
A blocked pipe is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself 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 lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our 24 hour Yellow Rock plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you've got a plunger, it is worth trying to remove the clog yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage the pipes.
Don’t let a clogged pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Got some dishes to deal with? It is seldom handy to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is tepid.
When the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it to be working again fast. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very swiftly.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Yellow Rock same day plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you do need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, needs and area. If the whole hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.
From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there is an issue.
Normally we don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly we are looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired immediately, to prevent damage to your house, furnishings and well-being.
The moment a leak is identified, give us a call, and our same day plumbers will be with you quickly. Our team are waiting to answer day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise yet more leaking.
How did the pipe fail?
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have frozen and cracked. In a newer home, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Underground seals might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will identify the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if required to check for other problems.
Do you own a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?
Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a serious vexation. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos at 2am, ruining your sleep.
It is not just annoying drips though. Leaks can drive up the 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 negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to fix your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From same day plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too extensive or little for our Yellow Rock plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, we also offer a broad selection of other plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of tap, we can often replace worn out parts immediately for a very acceptable expenditure.
