I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
What should you do when you locate a plumbing catastrophe? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the switchboard. Then, try to reduce any further leaking or flooding.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating valve to stop all water to your property.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to save the day.
In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable things from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The water main shutoff valve is positioned on the boundary near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the mains off can protect your residence from further flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
We realise a obstructed pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.
A obstructed drain is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will arrive at your home rapidly to solve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you've got a plunger, it is worth trying to remove the clog yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely work well and can cause damage to the drains.
Don’t let a obstructed drain send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Need a good soak to warm up following a freezing day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It is difficult to have a proper clean when the water is not hot.
When the hot water has let you down, give us a call. We will be there promptly to figure out the issue and get it fixed. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get your life back to normal.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very swiftly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Lightsview urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount 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 repairable, our professional team can help in identifying the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
The pipes in your residence are a generally concealed but integral part of your everyday activities. Large or little, underground, in the walls or the roof, they bring clean water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.
Normally we do not even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we are standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved asap, to minimise damage to your home, possessions and health.
Our urgent plumbers are prepared to get to you quickly, so ring our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.
Why did my pipe start leaking?
There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a very cold climate, they may have iced up and ruptured. They might simply be aged and worn out. The pipes might not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots can invade underground junctions.
Once the after hours plumber arrives, they will identify the problems and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.
Do you have a troublesome faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?
A lot of our clientelle over the years have told us how annoying it can be to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is echoing throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a serious issue.
As well as keeping the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills increase even higher, or possibly cause damage to your house, get hold of our emergency plumber right away.

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