I have a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so switch the electricity off at the breaker box if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to solve the problem.
While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin mopping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important items from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
You might know it as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.
It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
We realise a blocked drain can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a good thing. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.
Clogged pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unclogged.
Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will arrive at your home quickly to solve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as we can.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you've got a plunger, it is a good idea to try to remove the blockage yourself. We recommend a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they seldom do a good job and can cause damage to the pipes.
Do not let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Ring our 24 hour Point Piper emergency plumbers right away!

Why did my pipe start leaking?
Pipes and taps can break down for a variety of reasons. The pipes might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in extremely frigid weather and cracked. Tree roots may have grown into underground pipes. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.
When they arrive, our on call plumber will locate the issue and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if required to look for other problems.
Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?
Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious vexation. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, disturbing your deams.
Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.
Whether you just need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a modest selection of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you require, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we track down what you want.
As well as serving Point Piper with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or little.
Why is my tap dripping?
If it’s not aggravating enough to need fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Or knot some twine around the tap spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
