Frequently Asked Questions - Important

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 still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to find the tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important things, mop up any water, and position a container to catch any drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Dewhurst emergency plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the laundry sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our emergency Dewhurst plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find a temporary solution to tide you over until we come back.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We tend to take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Have a few of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a proper wash up when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. Our team will be there promptly to identify the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can repair them and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very rapidly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Dewhurst urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing 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 your existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our helpful team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the small clean water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there’s a problem.

Usually, you don’t even recall their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a serious problem that needs to be sorted immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be with you rapidly. We’re ready to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce further flooding.

Why did my pipe burst?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might burst. If you live in a very cold region, the pipes may have frozen and burst. They may simply be aged and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been installed properly to begin with. Tree roots can force open underground pipes.

Once they are at your home, our emergency plumber will identify the problem and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if required to look for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a problem faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just busted?

We’ve seen a range of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential irritant, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, 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.

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

As well as serving Dewhurst with urgent plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too great or minor.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it’s not bad enough to need repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to minimise the noise. Or knot a length of twine around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
