Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent Plumber - 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 access point or 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 taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to get things sorted.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away valuable items from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

A obstructed drain is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your home speedily to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to tide you over 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 drain get you down. Call us now!

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

Big or little, hidden under the ground or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your residence are a hidden but key part of your daily life. They bring fresh water to your home, and remove used water and sewage out.

Often, we never even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a serious issue that needs to be sorted immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist The Basin residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the house.

Why did the pipe burst?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you reside in a extremely cold region, the pipes may have frozen and burst. They could simply be aged and worn out. They might not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots may invade underground connections.

When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will identify the issue and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if needed to check for other issues.

All Taps Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?

Many customers over the years have told us how aggravating it is to have a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is echoing throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a major issue.

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

Whether you require a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional 24 hour plumbers will speedily locate the issue and resolve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as providing The Basin with urgent plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too big or small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it is not annoying enough to be worth fixing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Or knot a length of string around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
