It’s the worst possible moment when your kitchen faucet has started leaking, or your hot water heater has stopped working, or the drain is clogged. Leaks, broken tapsfaucets, hot water tanks and clogged drains may all be a pain.
Plumbing problems are not pre-booked or convenient. There are a lot of ways that a plumbing emergency can ruin everything, and that’s why we strive to be there as fast as possible, even if it is after hours or a public holiday.
Our Rye emergency plumbers are waiting right now for you to ring. We’re ready to resolve your problems so you can return to enjoying life again. Our 24 hour service means you don’t have to wait, so just give us a call for plumbing help, any day of the year.
We have been servicing Rye for years, and our highly trained plumbers have the knowledge, parts and equipment to resolve all sorts of plumbing jobs quickly and efficiently. We will even clean up any mess we’ve made prior to leaving.
As well as emergency plumbing, we also do every-day plumbing. If you’ve got a non-urgent plumbing job, call or email our office and we’ll make sure it gets sorted. Our friendly reliable team are ready and waiting to serve you.
What do you do when a plumbing calamity strikes? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if needed turn the electricity off on the breaker box.
If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once that’s done, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to resolve the problem.
While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and place a container to catch any drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
The primary isolating valve will be on the border of your property near the road. It is typically set into the ground below a blue or black cover.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
When your drains are overflowing, you need help asap. Our emergency Rye plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
A clogged drain is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your home speedily to resolve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.
We endorse trying to clear minor obstructions with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have a plunger, or it does not clear the clog, we don't suggest chemicals as they rarely work well, and may even cause more damage to the pipes.
Do not let a blocked pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We usually do not realise how heavily we count upon easy fast hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Need to deal with some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s cold.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it repaired as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.
Did you know around 30% of the average household power bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water problems empty your wallet, get them fixed promptly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Rye emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best solution for your budget, needs and location. If your whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.
From the small clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there’s an issue.
Once there is a problem though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it resolved asap to prevent damage to your home, your furnishings and even your well-being.
As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers without delay. We are waiting to help Rye residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.
There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you live in a cold location, the pipes might have frozen and ruptured. They could simply be aged and worn out. The pipes may not have been installed properly in the first place. Tree roots can invade subterranean junctions.
When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will locate the issue and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other problems.
Do you have a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply busted?
We have been called to an assortment of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at 2am when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential irritant, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, call our team now.
Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have what you want, our plumber can put in a temporary faucet until we track down the style you need.
As well as providing Rye with emergency plumbing of all types, our team are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?
If the drip is not bad enough to be worth fixing right now, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Or tie a length of twine around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
