FAQ After Hours Plumbers

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 service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to cut off all water to your property.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, put a container to catch drips, and remove important things from the affected area. If the property 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

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 obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a newer house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground pipes might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our emergency plumber will locate the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other issues.
