Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent Plumbers - 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 tap to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water valve for your property. If you are unable to locate a 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.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating 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.

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

Blocked Drains Hassles

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

Blocked drains can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our after hours Houghton plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can’t get the obstruction completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to keep you going until our plumbers come back.

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 System Issues

Had a hard day at work and badly require a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have a sink-full of dishes to deal with? It is seldom handy to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is barely warm.

When your hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. Our team will be there quickly to diagnose the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Did you know around thiry percent of your household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to items stored nearby. Don’t let hot water troubles harm your wallet, get them fixed as fast as possible.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Houghton urgent plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder isn’t repairable, our friendly team can help in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can schedule an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

Big and little, hidden in the garden or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your home are a hidden but key part of everyday life. They carry clean water to your home, and transfer used water and sewage away.

Ususally we barely even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we’re looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired immediately, to prevent damage to your home, possessions and well-being.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be with you rapidly. We are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise further leaking.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and cracked. In a recently built home, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our after hours plumbers will diagnose and fix your damaged pipes or leaks promptly and precisely.

All Taps Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a defective tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a major irritation. Something that might go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, disturbing your deams.

It is not only irritating drips though. Leaks may push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you need a whole replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers can speedily diagnose the cause and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Houghton urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the twine and trickle off quietly.
