Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency Plumber

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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to stop all the water to your home.

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

In the meantime, start mopping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away valuable items from the area. If the house water is turned off, then 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 is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Canterbury on call plumbers understand that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing asap. That’s why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

A clogged drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers return.

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 obstructed drains ruin your day. Ring our on call Canterbury emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We often do not realise how frequently you depend upon easy fast hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a wash? Need to finish up a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s cold.

When your hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a ring. Our plumbers will be there promptly to figure out the problem and get it fixed. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Did you know about 30% of your home electricity bill is used for hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water troubles empty your pocket, get them resolved as soon as possible.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Canterbury emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can schedule upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

From the little clean water pipes in your walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there’s a problem.

Normally, people barely even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s generally a serious issue that must be sorted immediately before your house, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is identified, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road quickly. Our team are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise further flooding.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. They might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they could have iced up in very frigid weather and burst. Tree roots could have grown into underground pipes. Or there may be a problem with how they were set up to begin with.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if required to look for other damage.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Solved

Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply defective?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a serious aggravation. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the hubbub of every day life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the wee hours, destroying your shuteye.

It’s not only vexing drips though. Leaks can push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to halt that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Canterbury with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or minor.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a piece of twine of some type, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and dribble off quietly.
