I've got a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to make sure it is safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off at the switchboard.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be at your home as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.
I do not know where the main water tap is!
The main shutoff valve will generally be on the border of your property close to the road. It is typically set in the ground below a blue or black plastic cover.
It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance asap. Our urgent Carlingford plumbers know how disheartening and damaging clogged pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.
A blocked drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.
In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we return.
I have a plunger, can I fix it myself?
If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to unblock a clog yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they seldom do a good job and can damage the pipes.
Do not let a clogged drain send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost following a chilly day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It’s hard to have a proper clean when the water is cold.
When the hot water is not up to standard, you want it to be sorted quickly. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.
Did you know around 30% of your home power bill goes to hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water problems damage your pocket, get them resolved promptly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Carlingford urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can help pick the best option for your budget, requirements and location. If the whole hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there’s an issue.
Once there is a problem though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it fixed immediately to prevent damage to your home, your possessions and even your health.
As soon as you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers right away. We are waiting to assist Carlingford residents right now. While you are waiting for us to get there, it may be useful to turn off the water to the property.
How did the pipe fail?
Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have iced up and split. In a recently built home, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean joins might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once they are at your home, our after hours plumber will diagnose the issue and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other damage.
Do you own a problematic tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain broken?
We have been called to all sorts of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like a woodpecker at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial irritant, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.
It is not just aggravating drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking 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 just want a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our emergency plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vehicles are fully stocked with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have what you need, we can install an interim tap until we track down the style you desire.
As well as providing Carlingford with urgent plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or small.
Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
If the drip is not annoying enough to warrant fixing right now, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or knot a piece of string around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
We’ve been servicing the people of Carlingford for many years now. Our customers know us as prompt, expert plumbers who get the job done right first time, at an affordable price. We are the friendly faces you want to see when you have a plumbing catastrophe.
When a plumbing emergency strikes, our urgent plumbers are ready and waiting to solve your woes and get life back on track. Regardless of when or where, our licenced plumbing professionals are ready to resolve your issues.
Over the years we’ve seen it all. You name it, we’ve been up to our elbows in it. And even if it is 2am, on a public holiday, or during Christmas lunch, we will be there promptly, fix it fast and tidy up before we leave.
When you dial our emergency line, you will speak directly to a plumber, not an answering service. We might even be able to help you resolve your problem over the phone. If not, we’ll be there rapidly in a fully stocked van to get it resolved as fast as possible.
