Help, I have a plumbing emergency!
Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so switch the power off at the power panel if needed first.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains valve to stop all the water to the house.
Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.
While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things, mop up any water, and put a bucket to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The primary shutoff valve is usually located on the boundary close to the road, normally under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the water off can save your residence from more leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and cracked. In a newer home, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will locate the problem and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other damage.
