FAQ: Urgent Plumbers

What do I do when a plumbing disaster hits?

What should you do when you find a plumbing emergency? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the electricity at the power box. Then, attempt to reduce any more leaking or flooding.

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

Once that’s done, give our team a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there shortly to fix the leak.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any important items, mop up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

I do not know where the main water tap is!

You may know the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is found on the boundary near the road, typically under a blue or black cover.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Solved

We know a obstructed pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is seldom a good thing. That’s why our team of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Obestructed drains can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home quickly to solve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the problem to prevent further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.

Can I unclog the drain myself?

We recommend trying to clear minor clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it does not clear the clog, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and can cause more damage to your pipes.

Don’t let a clogged drain ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water System Not Working

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up after a wintery day? Have 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 is not hot enough, you need it working again speedily. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause major damage to your residence. 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 significant harm to your wallet very quickly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Rodd Point urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not repairable, our friendly team can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is aged and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a new house, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Underground seals could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our same day plumber will locate the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if needed to look for other problems.
