What do I do when a plumbing emergency strikes?
What should you do when you discover a plumbing emergency? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the very first thing is to switch off the electricity at the switchboard. Then, try to reduce any more leaking or flooding.
Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to cut off all water to the house.
Once that is sorted, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you rapidly to resolve the problem.
In the meantime, start wiping up any water, place a container to catch drips, and remove important things from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
Help! How do I turn off the water!
You may know the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This is generally positioned on the property perimeter close to the road, usually under a blue or black cover.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.
When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our urgent Schofields plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged pipes can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.
Clogged drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.
Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether it is a item 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 once more.
In the rare instance that we can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to tide you over until our plumbers return.
Can I use a chemical drain cleaner?
If you have a plunger handy you can try to clear the blockage in your sink, shower or toilet. If it won't clear, please do not use chemicals as they seldom get the job done properly and the chemicals can damage your pipes.
Do not let blocked pipes ruin your day. Call our on call Schofields emergency plumbers right away!
Had a hard day at work and desperately require a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Have a sink-full of dishes to finish up? It’s never opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is cold.
When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it fixed asap so your life can get back to normal.
Hot water leaks can rapidly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed quickly, the cost will become more expensive by the hour.
If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Schofields urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are waiting to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to reduce further leaking.
Why did my pipe fail?
Pipes and taps can fail for a variety of reasons. They might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have iced up in very frigid weather and burst. Tree roots might have grown into underground seals. Or there may be an issue with how the pipes were set up in the first place.
Our 24 hour plumbers can identify and repair your damaged pipes or leaks rapidly and cleanly.
Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether busted?
We have been called to all sorts of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at 2am when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a insignificant niggle, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

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