What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe occurrs?

What should you do when you find a plumbing catastrophe? Safety first! If there is water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the power at the switchboard. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to cut off all the water to the house.

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

While you wait, start mopping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and clear away important items from the area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

Help! How do I turn off the water!

The main isolating valve will be on the edge of your property near the road. It is usually set in the ground below a blue or black cover.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they could have iced up in very cold weather and split. Tree roots may have grown into subterranean connections. Or there might be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

When the urgent plumber arrives, they will identify the problems and repair them in a rapid and expert manner.

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply defective?

We’ve seen an assortment of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a tiny drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at 2am when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a inconsequential annoyance, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills increase even higher, or maybe even cause damage to your residence, contact our urgent plumber right away.

Whether you require an entire replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers will quickly locate the trouble and fix it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Potts Hill after hours plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and day to day 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 tie it around the tap aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and flow off quietly.
