Urgent Plumbers - 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 water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance quickly. Our urgent St Ives plumbers know how disheartening and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

A clogged pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that requires other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are completed.

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 drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost after a freezing day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It is a pain to have a proper clean when the water is not hot.

When your hot water has let you down, give us a call. Our plumbers will be there promptly to identify the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can swiftly push your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed asap, it can become more costly by the hour.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our St Ives urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t fixable, our professional team can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is aged and deteriorating, we can schedule upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it repaired asap to prevent damage to your home, your possessions and even your well-being.

As soon as you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers as soon as possible. We are waiting to assist St Ives residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have frozen and ruptured. In a newer residence, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Underground connections could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our on call plumber is present, they will identify the issues and fix them in a expeitious and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Issues Sorted

Do you own a problematic faucet? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain busted?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a major vexation. Something that may go unnoticed in the hurly burly of every day life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, disturbing your deams.

It isn’t just vexing drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you need a whole new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a small selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From large to small, our St Ives urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a broad selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and knot it around the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and trickle off quietly.
