FAQ: Emergency 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.

If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the issue.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important things, wipe up any water, and position a container to catch any drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance quickly. Our emergency Canterbury plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

A obstructed pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the laundry sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our on call Canterbury plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are completed.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost following a wintery day? Have some of dishes to finish off? It’s a pain to have a proper clean up when the water is not hot.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it working again fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it hot again as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know around 30% of your household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water troubles harm your pocket, get them repaired fast.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Canterbury emergency plumbers straight away. We will 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 fixed, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is old and worn out, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have frozen and ruptured. In a recently built house, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our on call plumbers will identify and repair your burst pipes or leaks expeitiously and efficiently.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a broken faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

Many customers over the years have mentioned how irritating it is to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is echoing around your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a sigificant problem.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks may drive 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 causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you need a whole replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers can quickly identify the cause and solve it. Our plumbers even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Canterbury with emergency plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too great or small.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?

If it’s not bad enough to need fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively tie some string around the tap aerator sufficient to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
