Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumber FAQ

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff valve to cut off all water to the home.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there quickly to solve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important items from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Solved

We understand a clogged drain can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

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

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

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

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Problems

We regularly don’t realise how frequently we rely upon effortless quick hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished in the garage and really want a wash? Time to finish up a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it remedied fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it repaired quickly so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can rapidly send the power bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as soon as possible, it will become more costly by the day.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Canterbury emergency plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not repairable, our reliable team can help pick the best option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

Big or little, buried subterranean or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your home are a unseen but significant part of your everyday activities. They carry clean water to your house, and remove dirty water and sewage away.

Normally you don’t even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden you’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out asap, to prevent damage to your house, belongings and health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road quickly. Our team are waiting to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce further damage.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have iced up and burst. In a new home, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Underground seals might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the 24 hour plumber arrives, they can identify the problems and fix them in a expeitious and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Problems Fixed

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

We’ve seen all sorts of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial niggle, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are fully stocked with parts and carry a small choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the faucet you need, we can install a temporary tap until we locate the style you need.

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too extensive or little for our Canterbury plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we can also provide a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or tie some twine around the faucet aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
