When a leak starts spouting, or a drain is blocked, or the hot water simply is not, the last thing you want is to have to wait for a plumber to arrive. In an urgent plumbing situation, frequently the longer you wait, the worse things get.
Plumbing emergencies wait for no-one. They can cause huge problems at the most annoying time. This is why you require an emergency plumber you can trust to be there when you phone. We respond and get there as fast as possible, no matter what day or time it is.
Whatever the time or day, our certified and reputable Picnic Point on call plumbers will fix your issues so you can get back to what you would rather be doing . Phone our 24-hour staff immediately to get help with all of your 24 Hour plumbing requirements, 365 days of the year.
We’ve been servicing Picnic Point for years, and our highly trained plumbers know how, equipment and parts to solve all kinds of plumbing issues fast and efficiently. We will even clean up any mess we make prior to going.
As well as on call plumbing, we also do every-day plumbing. If you’ve got a non-urgent plumbing job, phone or email our office and we’ll make sure it gets sorted. Our friendly reliable team are ready and waiting to serve you.
Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so turn the power off at the switchboard if needed first.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating valve to stop all water to the house.
Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.
In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The water main shutoff valve is located on the boundary near the road, under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting this off can protect your home from more leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your drains are overflowing, you want help quickly. Our on call Picnic Point plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.
Blocked drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains cleared.
Whether it’s the laundry sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our 24 hour Picnic Point plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as possible.
We endorse attempting to clear minor clogs with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the obstruction, we don't suggest chemicals as they seldom work well, and can cause more damage to the pipes.
Do not let a blocked pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is awkward to have a proper clean up when the water is cold.
If the hot water is not hot enough, you need it to be fixed fast. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very quickly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Picnic Point on call plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If you find 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 the cylinder is not repairable, our helpful plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange for improvements at a time that works for you as well.
Large or small, hidden in the ground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but key part of your everyday activities. They bring clean water to your home, and remove used water and sewage away.
Often, you never even remember them until something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s generally a major issue that must be sorted out urgently before your house, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.
Our on call plumbers are set to be there quickly, so ring our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.
Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. They may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have iced up in extremely wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots might have grown into subterranean seals. Or there might be a problem with how they were installed in the first place.
Once our urgent plumber is present, they will locate the issues and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

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