FAQ Emergency Plumbers

What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe occurrs?

What do you do when a plumbing disaster hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the mains switch off on the breaker box.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to cut off all water to your home.

Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They’ll be there quickly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, remove any significant things from the area, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

You might know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally positioned on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.

It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?

We suggest trying to clear minor blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it does not clear the obstruction, we don't recommend chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and can even cause more damage to your pipes.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

Big or little, buried in the earth or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but significant part of your daily life. They bring clean water to your house, and transfer dirty water and sewage away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your home, your belongings and even your well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so call us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for various reasons. They may simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in extremely wintery weather and split. Tree roots may have forced open underground seals. Or there might be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.

When they are at your home, our urgent plumber will identify the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if needed to look for other damage.

Tap Issues Fixed

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

We have seen all sorts of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like elephants tapdancing in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential niggle, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles are fully stocked with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we do not have the tap you require, our plumber can put in a temporary faucet until we track down what you want.

From large to small, our Westleigh emergency plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and general plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and tie it onto the tap aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and dribble off quietly.
