Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

On Call 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 there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water valve for your property. If you are unable to find the water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any important items, wipe up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our on call Houghton plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

A clogged drain is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the laundry sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our emergency Houghton plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to get you through until we 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.

Don’t 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 Leaks

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Want a good soak to defrost after a wintery day? Got a pile of of dishes to finish up? It’s a pain to have a proper wash up when the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it hot again asap so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very swiftly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Houghton on call plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find 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 do need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and area. If the whole hot water system requires improvements, we can schedule to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

Large or small, hidden under the ground or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your home are a concealed but integral part of your everyday activities. They bring clean water to your home, and remove used water and sewage away.

Often, people don’t even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s generally a serious issue that must be fixed urgently before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is identified, give our team a ring, and our on call plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise further flooding.

Why did the pipe fail?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you live in a very cold location, the pipes may have frozen and ruptured. They may simply be aged and worn out. They might not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots can force open subterranean joins.

Once the emergency plumber is present, they will identify the issues and repair them in a rapid and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a problem faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a major irritation. A little thing that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, destroying your sleep.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to fix your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From on call plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Houghton plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, we can also offer a broad selection of other plumbing services.

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

If the drip is not aggravating enough to need fixing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Or tie some twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
