Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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 service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you are unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any important items, mop up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You also should switch 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you need help straight away. Our urgent The Gap plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible however, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home rapidly to resolve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

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 resolve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed 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 a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost following a freezing day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a good clean when the water is cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it fixed fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can rapidly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired asap, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our The Gap urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder isn’t repairable, our reliable plumbers can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even remember them until there is a problem.

Ususally we do not even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we are standing in a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired without delay, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and health.

When you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to help The Gap residents right away. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have frozen in very frigid weather and burst. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean connections. Or there may be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

Once our same day plumber is present, they will identify the problems and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it is reverberating throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a serious problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your residence, call us now.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our same day plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vans are well stocked with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have what you require, our plumber can install an interim faucet until we find what you want.

As well as providing The Gap with urgent plumbing of all types, our team are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not bad enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the faucet spout long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
