Kitchen & Bathroom Renovations

If a pipe bursts, turn off your main water supply immediately to prevent flooding. Next, try to contain any water using towels or buckets and move valuables out of harm’s way. Then, call an emergency plumber to assess and repair the damage as soon as possible.

A blocked drain becomes an emergency when water stops draining completely, starts backing up, or emits a foul smell. If you hear gurgling sounds from your pipes or notice slow drainage in multiple fixtures, it could indicate a severe blockage that requires professional clearing.

For minor leaks, you may be able to temporarily stop the water using plumber’s tape or a bucket to catch drips. However, leaks can worsen over time, leading to structural damage and higher water bills. It’s always best to have a plumber properly repair the issue to prevent further complications.
