Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent Plumber FAQ

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 there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your property. If you’re unable to find the tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to solve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and clean up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, 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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We understand a clogged drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A clogged pipe is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Birkenhead plumbers will quickly identify the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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 blocked drains ruin your day. Call our 24 hour Birkenhead emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

We often do not realise how much you count on effortless fast hot water until it is not there anymore. Just finished up in the garage and really need a wash? Time to deal with some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it working again promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

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 often accounts for around 30% of the usual home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very quickly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Birkenhead urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not fixable, our reliable team can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the little fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is a problem.

Once there is an issue though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it resolved without delay to prevent damage to your home, your belongings and even your health.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are waiting to answer any time. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise further damage.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and split. In a new residence, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Underground junctions might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When our 24 hour plumber is present, they can isolate the problems and repair them in a prompt and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a busted tap? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a significant irritation. A little thing that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the wee hours, ruining your deams.

It isn’t just irritating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is getting down 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 require an entire new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert 24 hour plumbers will rapidly locate the cause and remedy it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our Birkenhead urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it’s not annoying enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Or knot a piece of string around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
