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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that is done, give our plumber a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to fix the leak.

While you wait, begin mopping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and clear away important items from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 alongside the toilet bowl.

Urgent Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance as soon as possible. Our urgent Preston plumbers know how frustrating and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Blocked pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes 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 be there quickly to get the pipes cleared.

Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our same day Preston plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through 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 Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It’s awkward to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it repaired fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it hot again quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted speedily, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Preston urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not repairable, our professional plumbers can help pick the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, we can organise repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Urgent Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

Large and small, hidden in the earth or in the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your home are a hidden but vital part of your everyday life. They carry clean water to your home, and take dirty water and sewage out.

Normally, you barely even think about their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is generally a major problem that needs to be fixed immediately before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist Preston residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older home, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have frozen and split. In a recently built house, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Underground pipes may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other problems.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a irksome tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?

We’ve seen an assortment of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like a woodpecker in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial annoyance, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just vexing drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you want a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist same day plumbers can rapidly identify the problem and solve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Preston urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a broad range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a length 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 slide down the twine and dribble off quietly.
