Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

On Call 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 service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that is sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there shortly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important items close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

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 valves also.

Blocked Drains Problems

We understand a clogged drain can be a major problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That’s why our team of on call plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unclogged.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our urgent Harkaway plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.

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.

Do not let a blocked drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is awkward to have a good wash when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a call. We’ll be there swiftly to figure out the issue and fix it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Hot water leaks can rapidly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as soon as possible, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Harkaway on call plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is 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 entire hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can organise to do that in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

The pipes in your house are a generally unseen but key part of your everyday life. Big and little, in the ground, in the wall or the ceiling, they bring clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Often, people never even think about their existence until something goes wrong. But when it does, it is a major issue that must be resolved urgently before the building, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

Our on call plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so contact us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might break down. If you live in a cold climate, the pipes might have iced up and burst. They may just be aged and past their use-by. They may not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots can force open underground seals.

When our urgent plumber is present, they can locate the issues and fix them in a prompt and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a busted faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?

We have been called to a range of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor irritant, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you want a whole replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert urgent plumbers will speedily identify the cause and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From on call plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Harkaway plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we also provide a broad selection of other plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

If it’s not annoying enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Alternatively knot a length of string around the tap aerator sufficient to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
