Has the kitchen tap turned into a fountain? Has the toilet started overflowing at an inopportune time? No hot water, just as the mother-in-law is supposed to arrive? Don’t let a leak, burst pipe, broken faucet or hot water heater destroy your day.
Plumbing problems are never pre-booked and convenient. There are a lot of ways that a plumbing emergency can ruin everything, which is why we strive to be there as fast as possible, even when it is after hours or a public holiday.
Our Rye emergency plumbers are waiting for you to ring. We’re ready to solve 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 assistance, any day of the year.
Our highly trained plumbers have the knowledge, equipment and parts to fix plumbing problems of all types quickly and efficiently. We’ve been looking after customers in the Rye area for years, and our loyal clients keep coming back because they know we’ll do an efficient and clean job.
As well as emergency 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.
What do you do when a plumbing calamity hits? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and not getting worse. Electricity and water do not play well together safely, so if needed turn the mains switch off at the power panel.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.
While you are waiting, remove any significant things from the area, and clean up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
The primary isolating valve will generally be on the border of your property close to the road. It is usually set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Rye 24 hour plumbers realise that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing immediately. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.
Clogged pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the drains cleared.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will 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.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.
If you've got a plunger, it is worth trying to remove the clog yourself. We recommend using a plunger with a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom do a good job and can cause 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.
Had a hard day at work and desperately need a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have a pile of dishes to finish up? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is lukewarm.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it working again fast so your life can get back to normal.
Hot water leaks can quickly push the power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed fast, the cost can become more costly by the day.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Rye emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the cylinder isn’t fixable, our friendly team can help pick the best option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is a problem.
As soon as you find a problem though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your home, your contents and even your well-being.
As soon as a leak is found, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road rapidly. Our team are ready to take your call night or day. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce yet more flooding.
Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. They may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in extremely cold weather and burst. Tree roots could have invaded subterranean connections. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were set up to begin with.
Our 24 hour plumbers will identify and fix your broken pipes or leaks promptly and efficiently.
Do you have a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether busted?
We’ve seen an assortment of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor niggle, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.
As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s hot water. Do not let the bills rise even higher, or possibly cause damage to your home, contact our urgent plumber now.
Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well stocked with parts and carry a small choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the faucet you want, our plumber can install a temporary faucet until we find what you desire.
From emergency plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Rye plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team also provide a wide selection of other plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a length of string of some type, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and dribble off quietly.
