I have a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if needed turn the electricity off on the power panel.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your home. If you’re unable to find the water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be at your home as soon as we can to save the day.
While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove significant things from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I don’t know where the main water tap is!
The water main shutoff valve is positioned on the boundary close to the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the mains off can protect your property from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Thornleight after hours plumbers understand that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing right away. That is why we have our on call plumbing service.
Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes cleared.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home rapidly to resolve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
If you have a plunger you can attempt to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please don't use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage the drain pipes.
Do not let a obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
You usually do not think about how frequently you count on easy quick hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garden and really need a wash? Time to deal with a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s lukewarm.
When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it repaired promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed fast so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very rapidly.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Thornleight on call plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If your cylinder isn’t repairable, our reliable plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can organise upgrades at a time that works for you as well.
The pipes in your residence are a generally hidden but integral part of everyday activities. Big and small, in the earth, in the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.
Most of the time we don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly you are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out without delay, to prevent damage to your house, furnishings and health.
Our on call plumbers are ready to be on the scene quickly, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.
Why did the pipe burst?
Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and ruptured. In a recently built home, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean junctions might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When the emergency plumber arrives, they will identify the issues and repair them in a expeitious and professional manner.
Do you own a problem faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?
