I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so turn the electricity off at the breaker box if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main water valve for your home. If you are unable to locate the water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They will be there quickly to solve the problem.
While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important items, wipe up any water, and put a bucket to catch any drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The main shutoff valve will be on the boundary of your property close to the road. It is usually set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
Our Heathcote 24 hour plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.
A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. But if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are concluded.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you've got 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 recommended as they seldom do a good job and can damage your drains.
Do not let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Call our emergency Heathcote emergency plumbing team now!
Had a hard day at work and desperately need a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Got a sink-full of dishes to finish up? It’s seldom handy to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is lukewarm.
If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you want it to be sorted as fast as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge 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 electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very swiftly.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Heathcote urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the old hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our reliable team can assist in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, we can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
The pipes in your home are a largely hidden but vital part of your daily activities. Big and small, underground, in the wall or the ceiling, they bring clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.
Normally, we don’t even recall them unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it’s generally a major issue that needs to be sorted immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.
As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist Heathcote residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the house.
How did the pipe fail?
There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you live in a extremely cold location, they might have iced up and burst. They could simply be old and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots can grow into subterranean connections.
Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will locate the problem and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if required to check for other issues.
Do you own a irksome faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up broken?
Many clients over the years have told us how vexing it is to live with a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it’s echoing throughout the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant issue.
Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise higher, or possibly cause damage to your house, call our after hours plumber right away.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to remedy that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From big to small, our Heathcote urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a wide range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it around the tap spout so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and flow off quietly.
