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

What do you do when a plumbing disaster arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not play well together safely, so if needed turn the electricity off at the switchboard.

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

Once that is done, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important items from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

You might know it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Our Potts Hill 24 hour plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing asap. That is why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

A blocked pipe is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. However if you can not, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

We recommend attempting to clear minor clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not clear the obstruction, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely get the job done well, and may even cause more damage to the drains.

How did the pipe fail?

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

Our 24 hour plumbers can diagnose and fix the burst pipes or leaks quickly and expertly.

Do you own a broken tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

We have seen a range of tap issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant niggle, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

From after hours plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Potts Hill plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, we can also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.

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

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very acceptable price.
