What do I do when a plumbing calamity hits?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so switch the electricity off at the power box if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water valve for your property. If you are unable to find the tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Once that’s done, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to resolve the problem.
While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant things, wipe up any water, and put a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help, I do not know where the main water shutoff valve is!
You may know the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is positioned 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 as well.
Our Colonel Light Gardens 24 hour plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to as soon as possible. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.
A blocked drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!
Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your home speedily to solve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
In the rare instance that we can not get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we return.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to remove a clog yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom do a good job and can damage the pipes.
Don’t let a clogged drain send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We often don’t realise how much you rely upon easy quick hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Time to take care of a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and discover it’s tepid.
When your hot water has let you down, give us a ring. We’ll be there quickly to identify the problem and get it fixed. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get your life back to normal.
Did you know about 30% of your home power bill is used for hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your house and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water woes hurt your wallet, get them fixed fast.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Colonel Light Gardens emergency plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you do need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, requirements and area. If the entire hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do that in a opportune manner as well.
From the small fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even think of them until there is an issue.
Normally you never even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you are standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed immediately, to minimise damage to your house, belongings and health.
As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist Colonel Light Gardens residents right away. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.
Why did my pipe burst?
There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps might burst. If you live in a extremely cold region, the pipes might have iced up and ruptured. They may simply be aged and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots may force open subterranean connections.
When they arrive, our on call plumber will diagnose the problem and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other problems.
Do you own a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply busted?
Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant irritation. Something that can go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums at 2am, ruining your shuteye.
It is not only aggravating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, 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 require a whole new faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional urgent plumbers can efficiently diagnose the problem and solve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.
From big to small, our Colonel Light Gardens emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of urgent and general plumbing services.
Why is my faucet dripping?
If it is not aggravating enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet spout long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
