When a leak begins spouting, or a drain is blocked, or the hot water simply is not, the last thing you want is to have to wait for a plumber to get there. In an urgent plumbing situation, often the longer you wait, the worse things get.
A plumbing crisis can be a significant inconvenience, and they have a tendency to occur at the worst possible moment. We all know how annoying it can be, and that’s why we aim to answer your call and get there as quickly as we can, regardless of the time or day.
No matter what the time is, call us and our Urgent plumbers will respond straight away. We’ll be there quickly, and resolve your Drumcondra emergency plumbing problems efficiently and speedily so that your home can return to usual.
We’ve been serving Drumcondra for years, and our highly trained plumbers know how, parts and equipment to resolve all kinds of plumbing problems quickly and efficiently. We’ll tidy up any mess we’ve made before we leave.
We don’t just do emergency plumbing though, we’re also available for non-urgent plumbing jobs. Phone or email our friendly dependable staff, and we’ll help you out with all your plumbing needs. We are ready and waiting, no matter what the issue is or how fast it needs to be solved.
What do you do when a plumbing disaster hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't play well together safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off at the breaker box.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find the water valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once that is sorted, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there promptly to get things sorted.
While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin mopping up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away significant items from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.
You may have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is found on the boundary close to the road, typically under a blue or black cover.
It’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.
Our Drumcondra after hours plumbers realise that a blocked pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to right away. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.
A blocked drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!
Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.
With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are completed.
We recommend attempting to clear minor clogs with a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have one, or it does not work, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and can cause more damage to your drains.
Do not let a clogged drain send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
We generally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Got some of dishes to deal with? It is hard to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.
If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it to be repaired speedily. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your pocket very quickly.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Drumcondra emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 your cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is aged and worn out, we can arrange for repairs at a time that suits you as well.
Large or small, buried subterranean or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your home are a concealed but indispensible part of your daily activities. They carry clean water to your house, and remove used water and sewage out.
Normally we don’t even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed asap, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and health.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road quickly. We’re ready to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent further flooding.
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and cracked. In a recently built home, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean joins could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
When our after hours plumber is present, they can identify the problems and fix them in a speedy and professional manner.
Do you own a annoying tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?
Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. A little thing that may go unheard in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums at 2am, destroying your shuteye.
Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.
Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles are fully equipped with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the faucet you need, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we find the style you need.
From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Drumcondra plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team also offer a broad selection of other plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me awake, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?
Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very acceptable expenditure.
We have many years of combined experience providing plumbing services for the residents of Drumcondra. Our many happy repeat clients confirm our reputation for expert, quality, economical work. We aim to assist you with all your emergency and day to day plumbing needs quickly and efficiently.

Over the years we have seen it all. You name it, we’ve been up to our elbows in it. And even if it is the middle of the night, on a public holiday, or during Christmas morning, we will be there quickly, fix it efficiently and clean up behind ourselves before we leave.
When you call our emergency line, you’ll talk directly to a plumber, not an answering service. We might even be able to help you deal with your problem over the phone. If not, we’ll be there promptly in our fully equipped van to get you sorted as fast as possible.
