What Should You Do Before an Emergency Plumber arrives?

Troubleshoot your Plumbing Repair problem

Before you do anything, you should take some time to identify and analyze your problem. Also, you should:

  • Try to figure out what is causing your problem
  • Assess the problem’s severity and determine if you can fix the problem it on your own
    • For Leaky Sinks look for any worn parts that you need to replace and tighten the screws
    • For clogged drains try to use a plunger to push debris into the sewer line
    • For a running toilet, try to replace the flapper valve and flapper

Shut Off your Water Valve

The first action that you should take in a plumbing emergency happens is to shut off the water. Look around your house for nearby water sources and shut off their valves. Valves behind your toilets and under your sinks would fall into this category.

If you have a more severe plumbing emergency, then it would be a good idea to shut off the main valve of the water pipe coming into your house. By doing this, you will prevent any liquid from flowing into your pipes and worsening the damage. To find the valve, look around the utility space where the main water line enters your house. If you are unsure of how to tell when that the water valve is turned off, make sure that it is perpendicular to the pipe. If this is the case, then it has been turned off successfully.

Turn Off your Water Heater

During a plumbing emergency, it’s a smart thought to turn off your water heater to avoid any possible damage that it could withstand from the repair. The water heater will have two shut-off valves, the first being a cold water inlet(identified by a blue handle). The cold water valve’s job is to feed cold water from the main supply to the water heater. The other valve is the hot water outlet pipe. The hot water outlet (identified by a red handle) controls all of the hot water throughout your home. By shutting it off, all the hot water in the water heater will not be able to leave. The repair will become more efficient by completing these steps.

Dealing With A Minor Leak

If you have located a minor leak, try to get as close it as good as you can. If you have a plumbing tape, then wrap it around the leak. You can also try to wrap a towel around the leak if you do not have plumbing tape. To limit further leaking you can place a bucket or rags to collect all of the leaking water. You should also keep track of the leaks and tell your plumber about your observations. This will make it easier to assess and fix the problem.

Call An Expert

The most useful step that you can take is to call a plumber. You should call an emergency plumber to explain your issue and to get some quick assistance on the phone. Our team at Plumber TO can quickly assist you with your plumbing emergency. We recommend that you call an emergency plumber and listen attentively to what they suggest to do. If it is a bigger emergency than anticipated, we will be able to provide you with 24/7 service regardless of the plumbing issue.

Types of Plumbing Emergencies:

Leaking Water Heater

If hot water is coming out of your water heater even after lowering the temperature, it is likely a sign of a plumbing emergency. Firstly, you should shut off your heater at the circuit breaker for electric heaters or turn off the gas line connection for gas heaters. Sweeping the water away from your water heater and trying to collect it with a draining hose would work best. After shutting off your water heater, keep in mind that it is better to stay away from it as it could expose you to hazardous elements from the heater.

Frozen Pipes

From time to time, an extreme winter can cause water to freeze in the pipes. You can’t afford to wait until winter ends to fix your pipe. When observing a frozen pipe, try to look for damage such as cracks, breaks or splits. If you see any damages be sure to call Emergency Plumber Toronto to help you out. 

In the future, you can protect pipes from cold weather conditions by:

  • Disconnecting hoses
  • Insulating the pipe
  • Turning up the heat on the pipe
  • Generating some warm air over them by enclosing the pipe
  • Shutting off the water when you are away from home

By following these steps you will be less likely to deal with a frozen pipe in the future.

Leakage

You can’t do much when a pipe leaks. As a result, you need a plumbing emergency. It may take some necessary steps, but you can leave rest to the experts. Whether you have a leaky faucet or toilet, you can take multiple steps if the leak is minor. For a leaky faucet, you can try to tighten the direct water valve. But if you are unsure of how to do this then you should contact Plumber Toronto Pro and we will assist you to do this. For a leaky toilet, shut off your water valve and check the tank at the back of your toilet to find where the problem lies. Try to recognize if there is an issue with the flapper or seal and whether it is easy to fix. If it appears too difficult for repair or if you are unsure of how to fix it, contact Plumber Toronto Pro and our team will provide you with a solution.
