I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the electricity at the power panel. Then, attempt to reduce any further leaking or flooding.
Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains valve to stop all the water to the residence.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important items, clean up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
You might have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is normally located on the property perimeter near the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.
Our Canterbury after hours plumbers understand that a blocked drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That’s why we have our on call plumbing service.
Blocked drains can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Whether it is the bathroom sink that won’t clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our after hours Canterbury plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to remove a clog yourself. We recommend using a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they seldom work well and can cause damage to the drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Have some of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.
When the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it sorted promptly. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very rapidly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Canterbury on call plumbers right away. We will get the hot water working 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 cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is old and deteriorating, we can schedule upgrades at a time that works for you as well.
The pipes in your house are a largely unseen but very important part of everyday activities. Big or small, in the ground, in the walls or the ceiling, they carry fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.
Once there is a problem though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it fixed asap to prevent damage to your home, your belongings and even your well-being.
Our on call plumbers are prepared to be there quickly, so contact us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.
How did my pipe fail?
Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. They might simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in extremely cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have invaded subterranean connections. Or there might be a problem with how they were installed in the first place.
Once they arrive, our emergency plumber will diagnose the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other issues.
Do you own a problem faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?
We’ve seen all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant annoyance, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.
It’s not only vexing drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to fix that leak. The team carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.
As well as serving Canterbury with on call plumbing of all types, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or too small.
The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some peace and quiet?
Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very acceptable outlay.
We have been servicing the Canterbury area for many years, and our reputation for excellent quality work at an affordable price sees our past customers coming back to us again and again. Our intention is to help you with all your plumbing needs, regardless of what, where or when.
When a plumbing emergency hits, our on call plumbers are ready and waiting to deal with your woes and get life back to normal. No matter when, no matter what, our licenced plumbing professionals are ready to resolve your issues.
We provide Canterbury residents on call plumbing services any time of the day or night, as well as every day maintenance and repairs. We’ve seen it all, and have pride in our reputation for low stress answers to all your plumbing desires.
When you call our emergency line, you’ll talk directly to a plumber, not an answering service. We might even be able to help you resolve your problem over the phone. If not, our plumber will be there quickly in a fully equipped van to get it resolved as fast as possible.
