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.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to solve the issue.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important items from the area, and mop up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, also 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Thorngate on call plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

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

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our on call Thorngate plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.

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 Not Working

You usually do not realise how heavily we count on easy quick hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Time to finish off some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you want it to be hot again fast. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Thorngate urgent plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 helpful team can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can schedule repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there’s a problem.

Often, people barely even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a serious problem that needs to be resolved immediately before the building, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers immediately. We are waiting to assist Thorngate residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe burst?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and burst. They could simply be aged and past their use-by. They may not have been installed properly to begin with. Tree roots can force open subterranean pipes.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will diagnose the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipework if required to check for other problems.

All Taps Handled

Tap Leaks Solved

Do you own a irksome faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how frustrating it can be to have a dripping or defective tap. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but at night when it’s echoing throughout the house like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a sigificant issue.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

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

As well as providing Thorngate with urgent plumbing of all kinds, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too extensive or minor.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it is not bad enough to warrant repairing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the sound. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
