Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Emergency 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 isolating valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They will be there promptly to solve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and mop up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Houghton on call plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a major health hazard that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Regardless of whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can not get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to get you through until our plumbers return.

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.

Do not let a blocked pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

You regularly do not think about how much we depend on effortless quick hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished in the garden and really need a wash? Time to finish off a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

When the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it working again quickly. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Did you know about 30% of your home electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your home and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water troubles empty your pocket, get them fixed quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Houghton emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best option for your budget, needs and location. If your entire hot water system requires improvements, we can arrange to do that in a timely manner as well.

The moment a leak is found, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re waiting to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce further flooding.

How did my pipe burst?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you live in a extremely cold climate, the pipes might have frozen and ruptured. They may simply be old and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been installed properly in the first place. Tree roots can force open subterranean junctions.

Once the on call plumber is present, they will isolate the issues and fix them in a expeitious and professional manner.

Tapware Issues Fixed

Do you own a problematic faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?

We have been called to all sorts of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant annoyance, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your residence, call our team now.

Whether you need a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert on call plumbers can efficiently identify the problem and resolve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our Houghton emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a broad range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth fixing right this moment, you can put a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot some twine around the tap spout long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
