Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours Plumbers: FAQ

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to cut off all the water to the residence.

Once that is sorted, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to get things sorted.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any important things, clean up any water, and position a bucket to catch any drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help, I don�t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

After Hours Plumber Standing By

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Canterbury urgent plumbers understand that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to as soon as possible. That’s why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

Obestructed 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 a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unclogged.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our urgent Canterbury plumbers will quickly locate the problem and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Don’t let a obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost after a wintery day? Have a few of dishes to take care of? It’s awkward to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not hot enough, you want it to be working again quickly. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Canterbury after hours plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and location. If your whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.

After Hours Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

The pipes in your residence are a normally concealed but integral part of your daily activities. Big and little, underground, in the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally, people barely even recall them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is generally a major problem that needs to be sorted urgently before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be with you rapidly. We’re waiting to take your call 24/7. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce yet more flooding.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and ruptured. In a recently built residence, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground pipes could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the urgent plumber arrives, they will locate the issues and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Issues Sorted

Do you live with a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?

Many customers over the years have mentioned how frustrating it is to live with a dripping or busted tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is resounding around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a major issue.

As well as keeping the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Do not let the bills increase higher, or possibly cause damage to your house, contact our urgent plumber straight away.

Whether you require an entire replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional urgent plumbers can rapidly find the cause and solve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Canterbury with after hours plumbing of all kinds, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or small.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

If the drip is not aggravating enough to be worth fixing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Or tie a piece of twine around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
