Emergency Plumbers - FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing emergency hits?

Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so switch the power off at the power box if needed first.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest location or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.

In the meantime, begin mopping up any water, put a container to catch drips, and remove valuable things from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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

The primary shutoff valve is usually located on the boundary near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can protect your property from more flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
