What do I do when a plumbing emergency strikes?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency strikes? The very first thing is to ensure it is safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off on the switchboard.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the issue.
While waiting, remove any significant items from the area, and wipe up any water or put a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
I don’t know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve is generally on the boundary of your property near the road. It is typically set in the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.
When your pipes are overflowing, you want help asap. Our urgent Edinburgh plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
Blocked pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unblocked.
Whether it is the laundry sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our after hours Edinburgh plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.
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 complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
If you have a plunger handy you can attempt to break up the clog in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please do not use chemicals as they rarely get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage the pipes.
Don’t let a obstructed drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
Had a hard day at work and badly require a refreshing shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Have a sink-full of dishes to finish up? It is never opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is lukewarm.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it hot again fast so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very rapidly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Edinburgh urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the cylinder is not repairable, our professional team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, our plumbers can organise repairs at a time that suits you as well.
Large and little, hidden underground or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your home are a hidden but key part of everyday life. They bring fresh water to your home, and take used water and sewage out.
Usually, we do not even recall them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is a serious problem that must be sorted immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.
When you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist Edinburgh residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the house.
Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and split. In a new home, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When they are at your home, our same day plumber will locate the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if required to check for other issues.
Do you have a troublesome faucet? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?
Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a significant irritation. A little thing that may go unheard in the hubbub of every day life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the wee hours, destroying your deams.
Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills increase even higher, or possibly cause damage to your residence, get hold of our after hours plumber right away.
Whether you want a whole new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers can rapidly identify the issue and fix it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.
As well as providing Edinburgh with urgent plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or little.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
