Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Urgent Plumbers

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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to stop all water to the property.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the problem.

While waiting, clear away any significant things from the area, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, 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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Urgent Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Houghton emergency plumbers realise that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to asap. That is why we have our urgent plumbing service.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains cleared.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your abode speedily to solve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as we can.

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.

Do not let clogged drains ruin your day. Ring our emergency Houghton emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a wintery day? Have some of dishes to take care of? It’s a pain to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.

When the hot water has fallen short, give our plumbers a ring. We’ll be there promptly to figure out the problem and fix it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your pocket very rapidly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Houghton urgent plumbers right away. 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 the old hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our friendly team can help in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our team can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

Big and small, hidden subterranean or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a unseen but significant part of your everyday life. They bring fresh water to your house, and transfer dirty water and sewage away.

Normally you do not even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed immediately, to minimise damage to your house, belongings and well-being.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be there right away, so ring our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a range of reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have iced up in very cold weather and cracked. Tree roots could have invaded underground joints. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

When the emergency plumber is present, they will locate the issues and fix them in a prompt and expert manner.

All Taps Handled

Tapware Issues Sorted

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

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a major vexation. A little thing that may go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, disturbing your deams.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to resolve your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Houghton with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.

Why is my tap dripping?

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts right then and there for a very reasonable cost.
