Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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 there is water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water valve for your home. If you’re unable to find the tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any significant items, mop up any water, and place a container 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Solved

We understand a obstructed drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.

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 Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a pile of of dishes to deal with? It is difficult to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it sorted quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know around 30% of the average home electricity bill is used on hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to things stored nearby. Do not let hot water catastrophies hurt your wallet, get them fixed as soon as possible.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Canterbury emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is 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 existing hot water cylinder is not fixable, our reliable team can help in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

Large or little, buried under the ground or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a hidden but integral part of your daily activities. They bring clean water to your home, and transfer used water and sewage out.

As soon as you find an issue though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you want it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your house, your contents and even your well-being.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a call, and our emergency plumbers will be with you rapidly. We’re waiting to take your call any time. Before they arrive, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent further flooding.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older home, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and burst. In a recently built residence, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Underground pipes could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will locate the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if needed to check for other damage.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Leaks Fixed

Do you own a problematic tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

We’ve been called to a range of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant annoyance, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just irritating drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is 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 just want a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our after hours plumbers have got what you require. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have the tap you require, our plumber can put in an interim tap until we locate what you want.

From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Canterbury plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not bad enough to warrant fixing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the sound. Or tie a length of twine around the tap spout long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
