What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the switchboard.
If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While you wait, start cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and remove significant items from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
You may know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover.
It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
We know a obstructed pipe can be a serious problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of on call plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.
Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Whether it is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.
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 solve the problem to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as we can.
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to remove a clog yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely work well and can damage your pipes.
Do not let a clogged pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Got a pile of of dishes to finish up? It’s hard to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.
When the hot water isn’t up to standard, you want it to be hot again as soon as possible. From blown elements, to unreliable 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 vast amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very rapidly.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Carlingford on call plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can schedule to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.
The pipes in your house are a generally concealed but significant part of your daily life. Large and small, in the earth, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they carry fresh water to your home and take the used stuff away.
Often, we do not even remember their existence until something goes wrong. But when it does, it is generally a major problem that needs to be sorted urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.
The moment a leak is identified, give our team a ring, and our on call plumbers will be on the road quickly. We’re waiting to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce yet more damage.
There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps may fail. If you live in a cold climate, they might have iced up and burst. They could simply be old and dilapidated. They may not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots can force open underground pipes.
Once the urgent plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.
Do you own a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?
We have seen a range of tap issues over the years, and know that even a little drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor annoyance, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.
As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills increase higher, or possibly cause damage to your house, contact our after hours plumber now.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to halt that leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if required.
From large to small, our Carlingford on call plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a wide selection of urgent and general plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a piece of string of some type, and tie it around the tap spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
