What do I do when a plumbing emergency strikes?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to turn off the power at the switchboard. Then, try to minimise any further leaking or flooding.
If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to resolve the problem.
While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important things, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The primary isolating valve will generally be on the edge of your property close to the road. It is typically set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.
We realise a clogged pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of 24 hour plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.
Obestructed pipes can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by 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 drains unclogged.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your home quickly to resolve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are finished.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
If you have a plunger, it is a good idea to try to unblock a clog yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can cause damage to the pipes.
Do not let a clogged drain ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We generally take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Got a few of dishes to finish off? It is hard to have a good clean up when the water is cold.
When the hot water is not up to standard, you want it remedied as fast as possible. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.
Hot water leaks can rapidly put the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as fast as possible, the cost can become more costly by the hour.
When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Darlington 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 turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If your whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do that in a opportune manner as well.
Big and small, buried underground or in the floor, wall or roof, the pipes in your house are a unseen but significant part of your everyday life. They carry clean water to your residence, and transfer dirty water and sewage out.
Normally you barely even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out asap, to prevent damage to your house, possessions and well-being.
Our 24 hour plumbers are set to be there right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.
Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they could have frozen in extremely frigid weather and split. Tree roots might have forced open subterranean connections. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.
When they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipes if needed to check for other problems.
Do you own a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?
We have seen all sorts of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the small hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a trivial irritant, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your house, call us now.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to fix your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From 24 hour plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too extensive or minor for our Darlington plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, the team also offer a wide selection of other plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts right then and there for a very acceptable price.
