When You Need to Call Us
Plumbing issues come in all shapes and sizes, and as a result, it can be hard to know what needs immediate action and what isn’t so urgent. As a leading provider of plumbing services, we are ideally placed to help! Here are some major plumbing issues that you need to call us out for right away, no matter what time it is, along with other problems that can wait until you have the time to arrange a visit from one of our plumbers.
A burst pipe
When you think of a plumbing emergency, a burst pipe is probably what comes to mind! A burst pipe can cause an incredible amount of disruption in a very short space of time, flooding your property and damaging your walls, floors, ceilings and possessions. If you think that a pipe in your home has burst, call us right now.
No hot water
If you have no hot water, this could be a sign of a serious issue with your boiler. It can even be a sign of a gas leak. In the colder months, it’s also very unpleasant to deal with and could have a serious impact on your health and wellbeing.
Overflowing toilet
This is another problem that people think of when asked to describe a plumbing emergency, and if it happens to you, it really can feel like the stuff of nightmares! It’s not only messy, but it can be a real health hazard. We’ve dealt with plenty of blocked toilets in our time and can be with you ASAP.
You don’t have any water at all
Forget no hot water, sometimes you can be left with no water at all! This can be caused by anything from a frozen pipe to a major issue with your home’s main water line. No one should be left without water for an extended period of time, and that is why we are available 24/7 to try to deliver a swift solution to the issue.
Problems that can wait
No plumbing issue is pleasant to live with, but there are some that don’t require urgent attention. This allows you to make room in your schedule and budget for a visit from one of our plumbers. Some non-urgent plumbing issues that we see a lot include:
- Dripping taps
- Slow, manageable leaks that can be caught in a bucket
- Sinks and showers that are draining slowly
- Low water pressure
- Minor radiator issues
- A toilet that continues to run after being flushed
Here to help you
Of course, we haven’t covered every single possible plumbing issue there! As a general rule of thumb, if a plumbing problem is stopping you from being able to go about your normal activities or you are worried about serious damage to your property, then call us right away.
