I've got 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 not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off on the power panel.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.
While waiting, remove any important possessions from the area, and wipe up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The water main shutoff valve is generally located on the boundary near the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can protect your property from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.
Our Blakehurst emergency plumbers understand that a blocked drain can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing right away. That is why we provide our urgent plumbing service.
Clogged pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unblocked.
Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our emergency Blakehurst plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.
I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?
If you have a plunger handy you can attempt to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please don't use chemicals as they rarely do the job properly and the chemicals can ruin the pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
It’s been a hard day at work and desperately want a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Got a pile of dishes to take care of? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is tepid.
When the hot water is not hot enough, you need it hot again quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very swiftly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Blakehurst urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 your existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our reliable plumbers can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our plumbers can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.
From the little clean water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there’s an issue.
Often, you do not even remember them until something goes wrong. But when it does, it’s usually a significant issue that must be resolved urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.
When you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers immediately. We are waiting to assist Blakehurst residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.
How did the pipe fail?
There are many reasons why pipes and taps may start to leak. If you reside in a very cold region, the pipes may have frozen and burst. They may simply be old and worn out. The pipes might not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots may grow into subterranean connections.
When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other problems.
Do you have a problem tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright busted?
We have seen an assortment of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a minor drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the wee hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a minor niggle, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.
It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks may push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you simply want a washer, or a whole new faucet, our emergency plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vehicles are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we don’t have the tap you want, we can put in a temporary faucet until we track down what you desire.
From large to small, our Blakehurst urgent plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and general plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?
Find a length of twine of some kind, and tie it around the tap spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
