Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumbers - FAQ

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 location or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin mopping up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and remove significant possessions from the area. If the mains water is turned off, then 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance fast. Our emergency Papatoetoe plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

A blocked drain is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it yourself using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it is the laundry sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our same day Papatoetoe plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until we come back.

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 a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Need a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Have a few of dishes to finish up? It is awkward to have a proper clean when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has fallen short, give our team a ring. We’ll be there promptly to diagnose the problem and find a solution. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Did you know about thiry percent of the average home power bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your home and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water calamities hurt your wallet, get them repaired fast.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Papatoetoe emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, we can arrange for repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

The pipes in your residence are a normally hidden but very important part of your daily life. Large or small, subterranean, in the walls or the roof, they bring fresh water to you and take the used stuff away.

Most of the time you do not even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly you are looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved without delay, to minimise damage to your home, possessions and health.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to get to you right away, so contact our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe fail?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps might burst. If you reside in a cold climate, the pipes may have frozen and split. They might just be aged and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots may invade underground seals.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will locate the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipes if advised to look for other issues.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

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

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how vexing it is to have a dripping or defective tap. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it is resounding throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a sigificant issue.

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

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our same day plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have what you want, our plumber can install an interim tap until we track down the style you want.

From large to small, our Papatoetoe emergency plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a wide selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?

If the drip is not aggravating enough to need fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the sound. Or knot a piece of string around the faucet aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
