FAQ - Urgent Plumbers

I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What should you do when you locate a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the power at the power box. Then, try to minimise any further leaking or flooding.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important items close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

I do not know where the main water tap is!

You might know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is normally positioned on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Problems

We understand a blocked pipe can be a major problem. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That is why our team of urgent plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

A clogged drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home quickly to resolve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

If you have a plunger you can try to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't plunge away, please do not use chemicals as they seldom do the job properly and the chemicals can damage your drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Hot Water Tank Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Have a few of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a good wash when the water is not hot.

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

Hot water leaks can swiftly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted promptly, the cost can become more costly by the hour.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Stanmore urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If there is 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 is not able to be fixed, our professional team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is old and worn out, we can organise repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your house are a largely unseen but indispensible part of your daily life. Large and little, in the garden, in the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Normally, people do not even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a serious issue that must be sorted out urgently before your home, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is identified, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We are ready to answer any time. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise further flooding.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have iced up in extremely wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean seals. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

Our emergency plumbers can identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks promptly and cleanly.

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a broken tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

We’ve seen a range of tap issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like a woodpecker at 2am when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial niggle, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is hot water. Do not let the bills rise even more, or possibly cause damage to your residence, call our after hours plumber straight away.

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we don’t have the tap you want, we can install a temporary faucet until we find what you desire.

From large to small, our Stanmore urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a wide selection of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts right then and there for a very modest cost.
