If there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water valve for your property. If you are unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. 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 simple obstructions using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don’t have a plunger, or it doesn’t clear the blockage, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom work well, and may even cause more damage to your pipes.
Do not let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Do you own a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply defective?
A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how vexing it can be to have a dripping or busted tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s resounding throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant problem.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?
