What should you do when you locate a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the power at the switchboard. Then, try to reduce any more leaking or flooding.
Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to stop all the water to the property.
Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be there quickly to solve the problem.
While you are waiting, remove any important items close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.
The main shutoff valve is usually positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, normally under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can protect your house from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
Our St Leonards urgent plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing immediately. That is why we have our on call plumbing service.
A blocked drain is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!
Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our after hours St Leonards plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.
If you've got a plunger, it's a good idea to try to unblock the blockage yourself. We recommend using a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely do a good job and can damage your drains.
Don’t let a obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Need a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Got some of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a good wash when the water is cold.
If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it to be remedied as fast as possible. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.
Hot water leaks can rapidly send the power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed quickly, the cost will become more costly by the day.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our St Leonards on call plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If you find 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 do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and area. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can organise to do that in a opportune manner as well.
From the little fresh 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 never even remember them until there’s a problem.
Normally, we don’t even remember them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s usually a major problem that must be sorted immediately before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.
As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our on call plumbers as soon as possible. We are waiting to assist St Leonards residents right now. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.
Pipes and taps can break down for various reasons. They may simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have frozen in very frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots may have grown into underground connections. Or there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed to begin with.
Once our urgent plumber arrives, they can locate the problems and repair them in a quick and professional manner.
Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether busted?
A lot of customers over the years have told us how vexing it can be to have a dripping or broken tap. You may not even notice the drip during the day, but at night when it is reverberating throughout the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it’s a serious problem.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.
Whether you just want a washer, or an entire new faucet, our after hours plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are fully equipped with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have what you require, we can install a temporary tap until we find what you desire.
From on call plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or minor for our St Leonards plumbers. Not only can we fix your leaking taps, the team also provide a wide selection of other plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of tap, we can often replace worn out parts on the spot for a very modest outlay.
