Safety first! Electricity and water do not play nice together, so turn the electricity off at the power box if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you are unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.
Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.
In the meantime, begin mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and remove valuable items from the area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The water main shutoff valve is usually found on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover. You may know it as the water toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Shutting the mains off can save your residence from increasing flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our urgent Holmes plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.
Blocked pipes can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes unclogged.
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a toy 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.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.
If you've got a plunger, it's worth trying to unblock a blockage yourself. We suggest using a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they rarely do a good job and can damage your pipes.
Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!
You generally do not realise how frequently we count on easy fast hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really need a wash? Want to deal with some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s tepid.
When the hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. We’ll be there promptly to identify the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to defective 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 undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as soon as possible, the cost can become more costly by the day.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Holmes urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, requirements and location. If your entire hot water system needs upgrading, we can organise to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.
Large and little, buried in the garden or in the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a unseen but important part of daily activities. They carry clean water to your home, and transfer used water and sewage out.
Ususally you do not even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly you are looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved immediately, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and health.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road quickly. We are ready to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to prevent yet more flooding.
Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have frozen in extremely wintery weather and burst. Tree roots could have forced open underground pipes. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were set up to begin with.
Once the on call plumber is present, they will identify the problems and repair them in a quick and professional manner.
Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether broken?
A lot of our clientelle over the years have told us how aggravating it can be to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s reverberating around your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a sigificant problem.
It is not only frustrating drips though. Leaks may push up the 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 negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to remedy your leak. The team carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if required.
As well as providing Holmes with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too great or small.
How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?
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 often replace worn out parts on the spot for a very modest cost.
