24 Hour Plumber: FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing emergency strikes?

What do you do when a plumbing disaster strikes? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off at the power box.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to cut off all the water to your residence.

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

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

I do not know where the main water tap is!

The main shutoff valve is generally on the border of the property near the road. It is usually set into the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you want help asap. Our 24 hour Mortlake plumbers know how frustrating and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?

We recommend trying to clear minor clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not work, we don't recommend chemicals as they rarely work well, and can even cause more damage to your pipes.

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

Big or small, buried in the earth or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your home are a concealed but important part of your everyday activities. They bring fresh water to your abode, and transfer dirty water and sewage out.

Normally you don’t even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we’re looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved without delay, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and well-being.

Why did the pipe fail?

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

Our same day plumbers will identify and repair the damaged pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.

Why is my tap dripping?

If the drip is not annoying enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
