Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Urgent Plumber

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 service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate a main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that is done, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, remove any significant possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a container to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating as well.

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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

We understand a blocked pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your abode, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our on call Ardmore plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to minimise 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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We regularly do not think about how heavily we depend upon easy fast hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Want to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s tepid.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it hot again quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very quickly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Ardmore urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our professional team can help pick the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

From the little clean water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is an issue.

Usually, we don’t even think about them until something goes wrong. But when it does, it is usually a major problem that must be sorted out immediately before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to help Ardmore residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it may be useful to turn off the water to the house.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. They may simply be old and worn out. Or they could have frozen in very wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots may have forced open subterranean connections. Or there could be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

When they are at your home, our on call plumber will diagnose the issue and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipework if required to check for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Problems Sorted

Do you have a problem tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just busted?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to have a dripping or busted tap. You might not even notice the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it is reverberating throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant problem.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All our vans are well equipped with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have the faucet you want, our plumber can put in a temporary faucet until we track down the style you want.

As well as providing Ardmore with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too great or too small.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of tap, we can usually replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very reasonable price.
