I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so switch the power off at the power box if needed first.
Many appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains valve to cut off all the water to your residence.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.
While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant things from the area, and wipe up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
You might know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally positioned on the property perimeter near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.
We know a obstructed pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That’s why our crew of urgent plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.
Blocked pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your abode quickly to resolve the problem. Our highly trained 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’t get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to get you through until we come back.
Can I unclog the drain myself?
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely do a good job and can damage the drains.
Do not let a blocked drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it sorted quickly so your life can get back to normal.

How did the pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a range of reasons. The pipes might simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in extremely wintery weather and burst. Tree roots might have grown into underground seals. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.
Our on call plumbers can diagnose and fix your damaged pipes or leaks speedily and efficiently.
Do you have a busted tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?
Many clients over the years have mentioned how annoying it is to have a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s resounding throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant problem.
It’s not only frustrating drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
Whether you want a whole new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist emergency plumbers can rapidly diagnose the problem and fix it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From big to small, our Direk urgent plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a wide selection of emergency and general plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?
Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very reasonable price.
We have been looking after the Direk area for many years, and our reputation for high quality work at an affordable price sees our clients calling us back whenever they have a plumbing issue. Our goal is to help you with all your plumbing needs, no matter what, where or when.
