Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent 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 water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to fix the leak.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant things, mop up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You also should 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.

It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Solved

We realise a blocked drain can be a serious problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is never a good thing. That is why our team of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix 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 rapidly to get the drains cleared.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our on call Harkaway plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we come back.

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.

Don’t let a blocked pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have a pile of dishes to take care of? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden discover that the water is tepid.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a call. Our team will be there swiftly to identify the issue and fix it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed as fast as possible, it can become more costly by the hour.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Harkaway urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not repairable, our friendly team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can arrange improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the small clean water pipes in your floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there is a problem.

Most of the time we do not even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we’re looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved immediately, to minimise damage to your home, furnishings and health.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be on the scene quickly, so contact our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further damage by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe fail?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you reside in a very cold climate, they might have iced up and split. They might simply be old and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots may grow into underground pipes.

Our on call plumbers can identify and fix the damaged pipes or leaks speedily and professionally.

All Taps Covered

Tapware Problems Resolved

Do you have a busted tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how frustrating it is to live with a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is echoing around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a major problem.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call our team now.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we don’t have what you need, our plumber can install an interim faucet until we locate what you want.

As well as serving Harkaway with urgent plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or too small.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not bad enough to warrant fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
