Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff valve to stop all the water to your residence.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important items, clean up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn 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 called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Solved

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance asap. Our emergency Canterbury plumbers know how frustrating and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require available to repair almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are completed.

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 blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We tend to don’t realise how frequently we count upon effortless quick hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished in the garden and really want a wash? Need to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s barely warm.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you need it fixed speedily. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can quickly put your power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed fast, it will become more costly by the hour.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Canterbury emergency plumbers right away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best option for your budget, requirements and area. If your entire hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the little clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there’s an issue.

Normally, you don’t even remember them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s a major problem that needs to be resolved urgently before the building, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

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

How did the pipe burst?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you live in a very cold climate, the pipes may have iced up and cracked. They may just be aged and past their use-by. They might not have been installed properly in the first place. Tree roots may grow into underground junctions.

Our after hours plumbers can identify and repair the damaged pipes or leaks speedily and expertly.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a broken faucet? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

We’ve been called to all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a insignificant niggle, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your house, give us a ring.

Whether you want an entire new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers can speedily find the trouble and resolve it. We even carry a small selection of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Canterbury with emergency plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or too small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a piece of string of some type, and knot it onto the tap spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
