FAQ - Emergency Plumber

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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there promptly to get things sorted.

While you are waiting, remove any important possessions from the area, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating 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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance asap. Our emergency Ashburton plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

A blocked drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll 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.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.

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 clogged pipes ruin your day. Call our on call Ashburton emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Got some dishes to finish off? It’s seldom handy to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden discover that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it sorted quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it remedied asap so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very swiftly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Ashburton emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, requirements and area. If your whole hot water system needs improvements, we can schedule to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

The pipes in your home are a largely concealed but important part of your daily life. Big or small, in the ground, within the wall or the roof, they carry fresh water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Most of the time we do not even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden you are standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your home, furnishings and well-being.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers asap. Our team are waiting to help Ashburton residents right now. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and cracked. In a recently built residence, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean connections may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our on call plumbers can identify and fix your damaged pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Problems Resolved

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

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping faucet can be a major irritation. A little thing that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, disturbing your shuteye.

It is not just annoying drips though. Leaks may push 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 little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to fix that leak. The team carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Ashburton with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or minor.

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

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the sound. Or knot a length of twine around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
