Urgent Plumbers FAQ

What do I do when a plumbing disaster hits?

What should you do when you find a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If you find water anywhere close to electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the electricity at the power panel. Then, try to minimise any further leaking or flooding.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to cut off all water to the residence.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.

While waiting, remove any significant things close to the leak, and clean up any water or put a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

You may have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is located on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black cover.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you need help fast. Our urgent Lapstone plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

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

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Regardless of whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

If you have a plunger handy you can try to break up the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please don't use chemicals as they seldom get the job done properly and the chemicals can ruin your drains.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your home are a normally concealed but very important part of daily life. Large or small, under the ground, in the wall or the roof, they bring clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally, we barely even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s generally a serious problem that must be resolved immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so ring us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older house, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and ruptured. In a newer home, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will identify the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if advised to look for other damage.

Tapware Issues Solved

Do you have a problematic tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain busted?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a major vexation. A little thing that can go unheard in the hubbub of every day life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, destroying your deams.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise higher, or maybe even cause damage to your residence, call our on call plumber straight away.

Whether you need a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional same day plumbers can speedily identify the trouble and fix it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Lapstone with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or too small.

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

If it’s not bad enough to be worth fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively knot a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
