What do I do when a plumbing emergency occurrs?
What should you do when you locate a plumbing catastrophe? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the electricity at the breaker box. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to find a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once that is sorted, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to get things sorted.
While you are waiting, clear away any significant things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
You might have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally found on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.
It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even think of them until there’s an issue.
Most of the time we don’t even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed without delay, to prevent damage to your house, belongings and health.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be with you rapidly. Our team are waiting to answer night or day. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce yet more flooding.
Why did my pipe fail?
Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and cracked. In a newer home, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Our 24 hour plumbers will identify and fix the broken pipes or leaks rapidly and professionally.
Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?
A lot of customers over the years have told us how irritating it is to live with a dripping or broken tap. You might not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is resounding throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a serious issue.
It isn’t just frustrating drips though. Leaks can drive up your 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 putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you just need a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we don’t have the tap you need, we can install a temporary tap until we locate the style you need.
From after hours plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Galston plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we can also provide a wide selection of other plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a piece of twine of some type, and tie it onto the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and dribble off quietly.
