Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ On Call 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.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to stop all the water to the home.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and mop up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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 behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Solved

We understand a obstructed drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of on call plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll arrive at your home rapidly to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the problem to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as possible.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost following a chilly day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It’s difficult to have a proper clean up when the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it hot again quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can rapidly put the power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted fast, the cost will become more costly by the day.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Houghton on call plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best solution for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

Large or small, buried in the ground or within the floor, walls or roof, the various pipes in your home are a unseen but vital part of your daily life. They bring clean water to your home, and transfer dirty water and sewage away.

Ususally we never even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you are standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and well-being.

As soon as a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our on call plumbers will be on the road quickly. We are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise yet more leaking.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have frozen and burst. In a recently built home, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean seals could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our urgent plumber will identify the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipework if required to look for other damage.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

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

Many clients over the years have mentioned how frustrating it can be to have a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s reverberating throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a major problem.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s hot water. Do not let the bills increase even further, or maybe even cause damage to your home, call our urgent plumber straight away.

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole new tap, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles are fully equipped with parts and carry a modest selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have what you require, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we track down what you desire.

From on call plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Houghton plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we can also provide a broad range of other plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and tie it around the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and flow off quietly.
