What do I do when a plumbing emergency hits?
What do you do when a plumbing calamity arises? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off at the switchboard.
If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest access point and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.
Once that’s sorted, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to get things sorted.
In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve is positioned on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can save your property from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Putney emergency plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we offer our urgent plumbing service.
Blocked pipes can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need someone there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your home rapidly to solve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.
Can I unclog the drain myself?
If you've got a plunger, it's worth trying to clear the blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely work well and can cause damage to the drains.
Do not let blocked drains ruin your day. Call our after hours Putney emergency plumbers right away!
We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a good wash when the water is not hot.
When your hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it working again fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it working again quickly so you can get back to normal life.
Hot water leaks can swiftly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired speedily, it can become more expensive by the hour.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Putney urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the cylinder is not repairable, our helpful team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, we can arrange for upgrades at a time that works for you as well.
From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there is an issue.
Normally, you never even remember them unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s a significant issue that needs to be sorted out urgently before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or ruined.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be with you quickly. We are ready to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce further flooding.
Why did the pipe fail?
Pipes can break down and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and burst. In a recently built residence, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Underground junctions might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once the emergency plumber is present, they can identify the problems and repair them in a rapid and expert manner.
Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?
If the drip is not bad enough to need repairing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
