I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?
What should you do when you locate a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the switchboard. Then, try to reduce any further leaking or flooding.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be at your home as soon as we can to resolve the problem.
While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important possessions from the area, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
The primary isolating valve will normally be on the edge of the property near the road. It is typically set into the ground underneath a blue or black cover.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.
Our Lapstone urgent plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That is why we provide our after hours plumbing service.
A clogged drain is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether there is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.
In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until we return.
I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?
If you've got a plunger, it's a good idea to try to remove the blockage yourself. We suggest using 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 do a good job and can damage the pipes.
Do not let blocked pipes ruin your day. Ring our same day Lapstone emergency plumbing team now!
We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up following a freezing day? Got some of dishes to take care of? It’s difficult to have a good clean when the water is cold.
When your hot water has let you down, give us a ring. We will be there promptly to identify the problem and resolve it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your house and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water problems hurt your pocket, get them repaired promptly.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Lapstone after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can break down for various reasons. They may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in extremely frigid weather and burst. Tree roots could have invaded underground pipes. Or there could be a problem with how they were set up to begin with.
Once the emergency plumber arrives, they will identify the problems and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.
Do you own a troublesome faucet? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just busted?
A lot of clients over the years have told us how vexing it can be to have a dripping or broken tap. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is echoing throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a sigificant problem.
Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your residence, give us a ring.
Whether you need a whole replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist 24 hour plumbers will rapidly locate the cause and fix it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.
From after hours plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our Lapstone plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, the team also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.
Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?
Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can frequently replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very modest outlay.
