Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ: Emergency Plumbers

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 leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be there as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, start wiping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and remove significant possessions from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Canterbury urgent plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to as soon as possible. That is why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Regardless of whether it’s a toy 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 things flowing again.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until our plumbers come back.

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.

Do not let a clogged pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Want a good soak to defrost after a wintery day? Got a few of dishes to finish up? It is difficult to have a proper clean when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has fallen short, give us a call. We’ll be there quickly to diagnose the issue and get it fixed. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very rapidly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Canterbury emergency plumbers right away. We will 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 your old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our professional team can assist in finding the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, our plumbers can schedule improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there’s an issue.

Most of the time you never even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you are standing in a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired asap, to minimise damage to your house, belongings and well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to be there quickly, so contact our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and split. In a new house, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Underground junctions could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our urgent plumbers can identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks expeitiously and cleanly.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Leaks Sorted

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how annoying 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 reverberating around your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a serious issue.

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

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to halt that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Canterbury emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a broad selection of urgent and general plumbing services.

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

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very reasonable price.
