Emergency Plumbers - FAQ

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, 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 straight to the main valve for your home. If you are unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to solve the issue.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items, mop up any water, and put a container to catch any drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Why is my faucet dripping?
