What do I do when a plumbing emergency hits?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing calamity? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to switch off the power at the power box. Then, try to minimise any more leaking or flooding.
If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to solve the issue.
In the meantime, begin mopping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help, I don’t know where the main water valve is!
The main shutoff valve will be on the border of the property close to the road. It is usually set into the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.
It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
We realise a obstructed drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is never a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of on call plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.
A obstructed pipe is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it by yourself using a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!
Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your abode speedily to resolve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.
With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.
I have a plunger, can I unclog it myself?
If you have a plunger, it's worth trying to clear a clog yourself. We recommend using a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stay out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely work well and can damage your pipes.
Do not let a obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to take care of? It’s difficult to have a proper clean when the water is cold.
If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it to be sorted promptly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.
Did you know around thiry percent of the average household power bill is used for hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your home and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water calamities damage your wallet, get them fixed promptly.
When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Ellis Lane on call plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best option for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, we can schedule to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.
From the small clean water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even think of them until there is an issue.

How did the pipe fail?
There are various reasons why pipes and taps may start to leak. If you reside in a cold climate, the pipes may have iced up and split. They may just be aged and past their use-by. They might not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots may grow into underground junctions.
When the same day plumber arrives, they can identify the issues and fix them in a quick and expert manner.
Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether busted?
Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious annoyance. Something that can go unheard in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, disturbing your deams.
It’s not only aggravating drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to stop that leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.
As well as serving Ellis Lane with on call plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or too small.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a piece of string of some kind, and tie it onto the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
