FAQ - Emergency Plumbers

I have a plumbing emergency, what should I do?

What do you do when a plumbing emergency arises? The very first thing is to ensure it's safe, and hopefully not getting even worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the mains switch off at the power panel.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff valve to cut off all water to the home.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While you wait, start mopping up any water, place a container to catch drips, and clear away significant possessions from the area. If the house water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

Help, I don’t know where the main water shutoff valve is!

You may have been shown it as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally located on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black plastic cover.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Otara on call plumbers realise that a blocked pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unclogged.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your abode rapidly to solve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

I have a plunger, can I unblock it myself?

If you have a plunger, it is worth trying to remove a blockage yourself. We suggest a plunger that has a long handle, especially for the toilet, so you can stand back out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not recommended as they seldom work well and can damage your drains.

Don’t let obstructed drains ruin your day. Ring our on call Otara emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

You regularly do not think about how much you rely upon effortless quick hot water until it is not there anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Time to deal with a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it working again quickly so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Otara emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and area. If your entire hot water system requires upgrading, we can arrange to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

From the small fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We never even remember them until there’s an issue.

Normally we do not even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden you are looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out asap, to minimise damage to your home, possessions and health.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers asap. We are waiting to help Otara residents right now. While you are waiting for us to get there, it may be useful to turn off the water to the house.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you own an older residence, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and burst. In a new residence, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean pipes may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the on call plumber arrives, they can isolate the issues and fix them in a rapid and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a problem faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

We’ve been called to an assortment of tap problems over the years, and know that even a little drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant aggravation, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need on hand to resolve your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Otara with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and dribble off quietly.
