After Hours Plumbers - FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing disaster hits?

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

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

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

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The main shutoff valve is generally on the edge of the property close to the road. It is usually set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Can I unclog the drain myself?
