After Hours Plumber FAQ

Help, I’ve got a plumbing emergency!

What should you do when you discover a plumbing catastrophe? Safety first! If you find water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the power at the breaker box. Then, attempt to reduce any further leaking or flooding.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your property.

Once that’s done, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
