What do I do when a plumbing emergency hits?
Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the electricity off at the breaker box if needed first.
If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate the water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. They will be there quickly to resolve the problem.
While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant things, mop up any water, and place a container 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 valve is!
You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is found on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black cover.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
We understand a obstructed drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is never a good thing. That’s why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.
Blocked pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains unblocked.
Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our same day Hovea plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and repair it so that life can get back to normal.
With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.
Can I unblock the drain myself?
We endorse attempting to clear simple obstructions using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it doesn't clear the clog, we don't recommend chemicals as they rarely do a good job, and may cause more damage to the pipes.
Do not let a obstructed drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
It’s been a hard day at work and desperately need a hot shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a few dishes to finish up? It’s rarely handy to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is tepid.
When your hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a ring. We’ll be there quickly to figure out the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get you back to normal life.
Hot water leaks can quickly put your power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as soon as possible, it can become more expensive by the hour.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Hovea emergency plumbers right away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our helpful plumbers can help in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, we can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.
The pipes in your house are a generally concealed but key part of your daily activities. Big and small, underground, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.
Ususally you do not even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden you are looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved without delay, to minimise damage to your house, belongings and well-being.
Our emergency plumbers are set to be there right away, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.
Why did my pipe burst?
Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. They may simply be old and worn out. Or they could have frozen in very frigid weather and burst. Tree roots could have forced open underground joints. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were set up to begin with.
When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will identify the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other damage.
Do you have a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?
A lot of our clientelle over the years have mentioned how frustrating it is to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is resounding around the house like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a serious issue.
Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is the hot water. Do not let the bills increase further, or maybe even cause damage to your house, call our urgent plumber straight away.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to remedy your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.
As well as serving Hovea with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or little.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?
Find a piece of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and dribble off quietly.
