Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!

What do you do when a plumbing emergency strikes? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not play well together safely, so if needed turn the power off on the power panel.

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

Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and remove significant possessions from the area. If the mains water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The main shutoff valve is generally positioned on the boundary close to the road, under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as a water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting this off can save your residence from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

We realise a obstructed pipe can be a major problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a professional there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will 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 usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.

Can I unclog the drain myself?

If you have a plunger, it is a good idea to try to clear the clog yourself. We suggest using a plunger with a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely do a good job and can damage the pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even think of them until there’s an issue.

Ususally you never even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out asap, to prevent damage to your house, possessions and well-being.

Our urgent plumbers are set to get to you quickly, so ring us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for various reasons. They may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have forced open underground seals. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

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

Do you own a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether busted?

A lot of clients over the years have told us how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or defective tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is reverberating throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a major problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call our team now.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole new faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and have a modest selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have what you want, our plumber can install an interim faucet until we find what you desire.

From urgent plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Gordon plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, the team also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it’s not aggravating enough to need fixing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the noise. Or tie some twine around the tap spout long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
