FAQ Emergency Plumber

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the water main shutoff 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 that is sorted, give our team a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be there shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any important things, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help, I don�t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Birkenhead urgent plumbers understand that a obstructed drain can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That is why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our urgent Birkenhead plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until we return.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We usually don’t think about how heavily you depend on easy fast hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a shower? Need to take care of a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and discover it’s cold.

When the hot water is not hot enough, you need it hot again speedily. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very swiftly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Birkenhead emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working 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 fixed, our friendly team can assist in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

The pipes in your home are a generally hidden but indispensible part of your everyday life. Big and little, in the ground, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they carry fresh water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Usually, we don’t even recall their existence until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s a major issue that must be sorted out immediately before the building, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are ready to take your call any time. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise further flooding.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for various reasons. They might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in extremely cold weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into underground seals. Or there could be a problem with how the pipes were set up in the first place.

Our urgent plumbers will identify and fix the broken pipes or leaks speedily and efficiently.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Leaks Fixed

Do you own a problem tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

We have seen a range of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial niggle, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks can run up the 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 little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have what you want, we can put in a temporary tap until we find the style you need.

From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too extensive or small for our Birkenhead plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, we also offer a broad selection of other plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

If it’s not annoying enough to be worth repairing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Or knot a piece of string around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
