What do you do when a plumbing disaster hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the mains switch off on the switchboard.
If there is water still 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 locate a main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once that’s done, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you rapidly to resolve the problem.
While you wait, start mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The water main shutoff valve is usually found on the property perimeter near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning the mains off can protect your residence from further leaks or damage to the hot water cylinder.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
Our Bittern on call plumbers realise that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing asap. That is why we have our after hours plumbing service.
