What do I do when a plumbing calamity occurrs?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so switch the power off at the power panel if needed first.
Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water tap to cut off all the water to your house.
Once that is done, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there shortly to fix the leak.
In the meantime, start wiping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and remove valuable things from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The primary shutoff valve is generally found on the property perimeter near the road, normally under a blue or black cover. You may know it as a water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the water off can save your residence from more flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.
When your pipes are overflowing, you need help asap. Our emergency Gillman plumbers know how disheartening and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.
Obestructed pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes cleared.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your home quickly to resolve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
We suggest attempting to clear simple clogs using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't work, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and can cause more damage to the drains.
Don’t let a blocked pipe ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Have some of dishes to finish up? It is hard to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.
When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it remedied as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very rapidly.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Gillman emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and area. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, we can arrange to do that in a timely manner as well.
The pipes in your home are a largely concealed but very important part of your daily activities. Big or small, under the ground, within the walls or the roof, they carry fresh water to your home and take the used stuff away.
Normally you never even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your residence, possessions and health.
Our emergency plumbers are set to be on the scene right away, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.
How did my pipe start leaking?
Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have iced up and split. In a recently built house, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean junctions might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once they arrive, our urgent plumber will locate the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipework if required to check for other issues.
Do you have a broken tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?
We have seen a range of tap issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like elephants tapdancing in the wee hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a insignificant aggravation, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.
Whether you need a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert 24 hour plumbers will speedily locate the issue and solve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Gillman plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also provide a broad range of additional plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
If the drip is not aggravating enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or tie a piece of twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
