Emergency Plumber FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing catastrophe strikes?

What do you do when a plumbing disaster hits? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if you need to, turn the power off at the power box.

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

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

Help, I do not know where the main water valve is!

The primary isolating valve is normally on the border of the property close to the road. It is usually set in the ground below a blue or black cover.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Solved

We know a obstructed pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

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

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your abode quickly to resolve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until our plumbers come back.

I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?

We endorse attempting to clear simple obstructions with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it does not work, we don't recommend chemicals as they rarely work well, and may even cause more damage to the pipes.

Don’t let a blocked drain send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Hot Water Issues

You generally don’t think about how heavily you depend on effortless fast hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really need a wash? Need to finish off a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s tepid.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you need it working again as soon as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can swiftly put the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as fast as possible, it can become more expensive by the day.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Sefton emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again promptly.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

From the small clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there’s a problem.

Often, we barely even remember their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is a significant issue that needs to be fixed immediately before your home, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers without delay. We are waiting to assist Sefton residents right now. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for various reasons. They might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they could have frozen in very frigid weather and burst. Tree roots may have invaded subterranean pipes. Or there could be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

When they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if required to check for other damage.

Tap Leaks Sorted

Do you own a busted faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious annoyance. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the hubbub of every day life without warning sounds like a jack hammer at 2am, destroying your shuteye.

It is not only frustrating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you require a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers can efficiently identify the problem and solve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Sefton plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.

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

Find a length of string of some kind, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and dribble off quietly.
