What do I do when a plumbing calamity hits?
What do you do when a plumbing disaster arises? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off on the switchboard.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to stop all the water to the residence.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be at your home as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important items, wipe up any water, and place a bucket to catch 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 valve is!
You may have been shown it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally positioned on the boundary close to the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.
We understand a blocked drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our crew of on call plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.
Blocked pipes can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are finished.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
We suggest attempting to clear minor obstructions with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the clog, we don't suggest chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and may even cause more damage to the drains.
Don’t let clogged pipes ruin your day. Ring our urgent Canterbury emergency plumbers right away!
