Emergency 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 water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be at your place as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you wait, start mopping up any water, place a container to catch drips, and remove important possessions from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We realise a clogged pipe can be a major problem. Whether it is the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our after hours St James plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We regularly don’t realise how frequently you count on effortless quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really need a wash? Want to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it sorted promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very rapidly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our St James emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, needs and area. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

From the small clean water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there is a problem.

Most of the time we barely even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we’re looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired without delay, to prevent damage to your home, furnishings and health.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers immediately. We are waiting to assist St James residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the property.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for various reasons. They may simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have frozen in very cold weather and split. Tree roots may have grown into underground pipes. Or there might be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

When our after hours plumber is present, they will isolate the issues and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Issues Fixed

Do you own a troublesome faucet? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

We’ve seen a range of tap problems over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at 2am when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial annoyance, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you need an entire replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional after hours plumbers can efficiently diagnose the cause and remedy it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From emergency plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our St James plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, we also offer a wide selection of other plumbing services.

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

If the drip is not annoying enough to need repairing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to minimise the noise. Or tie a length of string around the tap spout long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
