I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What should you do when you find a plumbing emergency? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the power at the switchboard. Then, attempt to minimise any further leaking or flooding.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water valve for your home. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to save the day.
In the meantime, start cleaning up any water, put a container to catch drips, and clear away valuable items from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!
The primary shutoff valve is generally found on the boundary close to the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the mains off can save your property from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance as soon as possible. Our on call Preston plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.
Blocked drains can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your abode rapidly to solve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
We endorse attempting to clear simple obstructions using a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it does not clear the blockage, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and can even cause more damage to your pipes.
Do not let a blocked pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
You tend to do not realise how frequently we count on easy fast hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished in the garden and really need a shower? Want to finish up some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s barely warm.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it repaired as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Did you know around thiry percent of the average household power bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your house and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water catastrophies hurt your pocket, get them resolved quickly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Preston on call plumbers as soon as you can. We will get your hot water flowing 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 your cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly plumbers can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and worn out, we can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.
From the little clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there’s a problem.
Ususally we barely even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you’re looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved as soon as possible, to prevent damage to your home, possessions and health.
The moment a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our on call plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re waiting to take your call any time. Before they get there, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce yet more flooding.
Why did my pipe start leaking?
Pipes can break down and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and split. In a new residence, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Underground seals could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once the same day plumber arrives, they can identify the issues and repair them in a rapid and professional manner.
Do you live with a troublesome tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright busted?
Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a serious irritation. Something that can go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, disturbing your sleep.
Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to stop that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From on call plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Preston plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team can also provide a wide selection of additional plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?
Find a piece of twine of some type, and tie it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
