What do I do when a plumbing disaster occurrs?
Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so turn the power off at the power panel if needed first.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be at your place as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While you wait, start cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove important things from the area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help, I do not know where the main water valve is!
You might know it 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, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
Our St Ives same day plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That’s why we have our 24 hour plumbing service.
Blocked pipes can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a plumber there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our after hours St Ives plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.
Can I unclog the drain myself?
If you have a plunger, it is a good idea to try to remove a clog yourself. We suggest a plunger with a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay 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 drain get you down. Call us now!
It’s been a hard day at work and desperately need a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Got a sink-full of dishes to finish up? It is seldom opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is cold.
If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it remedied quickly. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.
Hot water leaks can swiftly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted promptly, it will become more expensive by the day.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our St Ives 24 hour plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again quickly. 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 your old hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our reliable plumbers can help in finding the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, our team can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is an issue.
Usually, you don’t even remember them until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s a significant problem that must be fixed immediately before your house, your possessions or even your health are damaged or ruined.
As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our 24 hour plumbers immediately. We are waiting to assist St Ives residents right now. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.
How did my pipe fail?
Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and cracked. In a newer house, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean junctions might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will locate the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if required to check for other issues.
Do you live with a annoying tap? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?
Many customers over the years have told us how irritating it can be to have a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it’s echoing around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a serious problem.
It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks can drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
Whether you want an entire replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert emergency plumbers will quickly identify the trouble and resolve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.
From 24 hour plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or minor for our St Ives plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, we can also provide a broad range of other plumbing services.
Why is my tap dripping?
Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
We have been looking after the St Ives locale for many years, and our reputation for high quality work at an affordable price sees our past clients calling us back whenever they have a plumbing issue. Our objective is to help you with all your plumbing needs, no matter what, where or when.

When you call our emergency line, you’ll talk directly to a plumber, not an answering service. We might even be able to help you deal with your issue over the phone. If not, we will be there quickly in a fully stocked van to get it sorted as fast as possible.
