Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency Plumber

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.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While waiting, clear away any significant possessions from the area, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Papatoetoe on call plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing asap. That’s why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

Clogged drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as we can.

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.

Do not let blocked drains ruin your day. Call our on call Papatoetoe emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

Had a hard day at work and badly want a nice warm shower? Time to put the kids in the bath? Have a sink-full of dishes to deal with? It is never convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is tepid.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it sorted fast so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can rapidly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired quickly, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Papatoetoe emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick the best solution for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the small clean water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there’s an issue.

As soon as you find an issue though, it is the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is worrying stuff, and you need it resolved without delay to prevent damage to your house, your furnishings and even your well-being.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re waiting to answer day or night. Before they arrive, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce further damage.

Why did the pipe fail?

There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps may start to leak. If you live in a very cold climate, they may have frozen and split. They might simply be old and worn out. The pipes might not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots may invade subterranean joins.

Our on call plumbers can identify and repair the damaged pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

We’ve seen all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant niggle, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just frustrating drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire new tap, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All our vans are well stocked with parts and have a modest selection of new taps and faucets to select from if desired. If we do not have what you want, we can install a temporary tap until we find what you want.

From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too extensive or minor for our Papatoetoe plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, we can also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it’s not aggravating enough to be worth repairing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot a piece of twine around the tap spout long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
