Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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 still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant possessions from the area, and mop up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you have 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.

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 clogged drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Why did the pipe burst?

There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps can fail. If you live in a very cold climate, the pipes may have iced up and burst. They could just be old and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots can force open subterranean pipes.

Once the on call plumber is present, they can locate the issues and repair them in a prompt and professional manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply defective?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how irritating it is to have a dripping or defective tap. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it’s reverberating around the house like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a major issue.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to halt that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our The Basin urgent plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a broad selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If the drip is not aggravating enough to be worth fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the sound. Or knot some string around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
