I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
What do you do when a plumbing disaster hits? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the power off on the power box.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.
Once that is sorted, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there rapidly to resolve the problem.
While you wait, begin cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away significant things from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help, I do not know where the main water shutoff valve is!
You may have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is generally found on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.
Our Humbug Scrub on call plumbers know that a blocked drain can be a serious health risk that needs attending to as soon as possible. That’s why we offer our 24 hour plumbing service.
Obestructed pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the drains unclogged.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your home rapidly to resolve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require available to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you've got a plunger, it is a good idea to try to clear a clog yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they seldom work well and can damage the drains.
Do not let clogged drains ruin your day. Call our urgent Humbug Scrub emergency plumbing team now!
You regularly don’t think about how frequently we rely on easy fast hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished in the garden and really need a wash? Want to finish up some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s tepid.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it sorted fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it repaired as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Hot water leaks can swiftly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as fast as possible, it can become more expensive by the hour.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Humbug Scrub 24 hour plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the cylinder isn’t repairable, our reliable team can assist in picking the best solution for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, our plumbers can organise repairs at a time that suits you as well.
Big and small, hidden in the earth or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but integral part of everyday life. They carry clean water to your house, and transfer dirty water and sewage away.
Ususally you never even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you’re looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved immediately, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.
As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our 24 hour plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to help Humbug Scrub residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.
Why did the pipe start leaking?
There are various reasons why pipes and taps might break down. If you live in a extremely cold region, the pipes might have frozen and ruptured. They could just be old and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots can force open underground joins.
When our urgent plumber is present, they can identify the problems and fix them in a speedy and professional manner.
Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether busted?
Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping faucet can be a major aggravation. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the hubbub of every day life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos at 2am, disturbing your deams.
It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to halt your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.
As well as providing Humbug Scrub with 24 hour plumbing of all kinds, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too big or small.
Why is my faucet dripping?
Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and flow off quietly.
