I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the power at the breaker box. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to resolve the issue.
While waiting, remove any significant possessions from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket 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!
The primary shutoff valve is normally on the edge of your property close to the road. It is usually set in the ground below a blue or black plastic cover.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.
Our Meadowbank urgent plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing asap. That’s why we have our after hours plumbing service.
Clogged pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible however, you need a professional there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your abode rapidly to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are completed.
Can I unclog the drain myself?
We suggest trying to clear minor blockages with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not clear the obstruction, we don't recommend chemicals as they rarely work well, and can even cause more damage to the drains.

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost after a freezing day? Have some of dishes to deal with? It’s a pain to have a good clean when the water is cold.
When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it working again as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very quickly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Meadowbank after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 the cylinder isn’t repairable, our helpful team can help pick the best solution for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is aged and deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange for repairs at a time that works for you as well.
The pipes in your house are a largely hidden but important part of daily life. Big and little, in the earth, within the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring fresh water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.
Normally, people do not even think about their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s usually a serious problem that must be sorted out urgently before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.
As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, phone our after hours plumbers right away. We are waiting to help Meadowbank residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.
Why did my pipe fail?
Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and burst. In a recently built house, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground junctions could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Our on call plumbers will identify and fix the damaged pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.
Do you own a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?
We’ve been called to an assortment of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial annoyance, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.
It isn’t just irritating drips though. Leaks can push up your 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 putting a huge dent in your wallet.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to remedy that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From after hours plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Meadowbank plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, the team also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
If it’s not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively tie some string around the tap spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
