Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Emergency Plumber: 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.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there shortly to fix the leak.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant things from the area, and wipe up any water or position a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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 called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Solved

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance as soon as possible. Our emergency Canterbury plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

A clogged drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it yourself using a plunger. But if you can not, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our same day Canterbury plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers return.

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 send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Problems

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It’s awkward to have a proper clean up when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has let you down, give our team a call. Our plumbers will be there promptly to figure out the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in your 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 can account for around 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very swiftly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Canterbury emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water working again quickly. If there is 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 you do need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and area. If your whole hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can organise to do that in a opportune fashion as well.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a normally unseen but very important part of daily life. Big and little, underground, in the walls or the ceiling, they carry clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Usually, we don’t even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a serious issue that must be sorted out urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

Our emergency plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so call our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe burst?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a extremely cold region, the pipes may have frozen and split. They may just be old and worn out. They may not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots may force open underground joins.

Our same day plumbers can identify and fix your broken pipes or leaks expeitiously and professionally.

We Have You Covered

Tap Leaks Solved

Do you own a defective faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how aggravating it can be to live with a dripping or broken tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but at night when it is resounding around the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it’s a major issue.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you require a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert same day plumbers will quickly locate the problem and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Canterbury with emergency plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or minor.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it is not annoying enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Alternatively tie a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
