FAQ: Urgent Plumber

Help, I have a plumbing emergency!

Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the power off at the breaker box if needed first.

Many 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 does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to stop all water to your residence.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things, mop up any water, and place a container to catch any drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The water main shutoff valve is generally located on the boundary near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can protect your residence from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We realise a blocked pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our team of urgent plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

We suggest trying to clear simple blockages with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it doesn't work, we do not suggest chemicals as they rarely work well, and can cause more damage to your drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Hot Water System Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and badly need a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids in the bath? Got a pile of dishes to finish up? It is never opportune to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is cold.

If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it fixed as fast as possible. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can quickly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed quickly, it can become more expensive by the hour.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Richmond Lowlands urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. 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 your cylinder is not repairable, our friendly team can help pick the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can arrange for upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a normally unseen but key part of your daily life. Large and small, in the earth, within the walls or the roof, they bring fresh water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.

Most of the time you do not even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired asap, to minimise damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to reduce further leaking.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. They may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in very frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots might have grown into subterranean seals. Or there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Once they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will locate the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if needed to check for other damage.

Tapware Leaks Sorted

Do you have a problem faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a major annoyance. A little thing that can go unnoticed in the hurly burly of every day life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer at 2am, destroying your sleep.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks may push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s 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 entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to halt that leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Richmond Lowlands urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and general plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and tie it around the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the string and flow off quietly.
