What do I do when a plumbing disaster strikes?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the power panel. Then, attempt to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there promptly to solve the issue.
While you wait, begin mopping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove valuable possessions from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I don’t know where the main water tap is!
The water main shutoff valve is usually positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting this off can save your property from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.
When your pipes are overflowing, you need help as soon as possible. Our after hours Kensington plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
Clogged drains can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a professional there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped to resolve 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 pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.
With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you have a plunger, it's worth trying to clear the blockage yourself. We suggest using a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stand out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.
Don’t let a obstructed pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Got a few of dishes to finish up? It’s awkward to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.
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 defective and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it remedied asap so you can get back to normal life.
Did you know about thiry percent of your home electricity bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water disasters harm your wallet, get them repaired quickly.
When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Kensington after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
The pipes in your home are a largely concealed but key part of daily life. Large or little, in the garden, in the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.
Usually, we never even recall them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s generally a major problem that needs to be resolved urgently before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.
As soon as you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our after hours plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist Kensington residents right now. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.
How did the pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can break down for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very cold weather and cracked. Tree roots might have forced open subterranean connections. Or there could be an issue with how they were installed to begin with.
Once they arrive, our urgent plumber will diagnose the problem and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other problems.
Do you own a busted faucet? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?
We’ve seen an assortment of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor aggravation, can all of a sudden be a dire plumbing emergency.
It is not just vexing drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you need a whole replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert on call plumbers can efficiently locate the issue and solve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From large to small, our Kensington after hours plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and general plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts right then and there for a very reasonable cost.
We have been servicing the Kensington area for many years, and our reputation for top quality work at an economical price sees our past clients coming back to us whenever they have a plumbing issue. Our aim is to assist you with all your plumbing needs, regardless of what, where or when.
