Frequently Asked Questions - Important

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.

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They will be there quickly to solve the issue.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important possessions close to the leak, and wipe up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Solved

When your pipes are overflowing, you need help quickly. Our emergency Papatoetoe plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our after hours Papatoetoe plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to prevent further damage and return with what is required 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.

Don’t let a clogged drain ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost following a chilly day? Have a few of dishes to take care of? It’s awkward to have a good wash up when the water is not hot.

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

Hot water leaks can swiftly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed fast, the cost will become more costly by the day.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Papatoetoe emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot 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 replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, needs and area. If your whole hot water system needs upgrading, we can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there is an issue.

Often, you do not even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is a significant problem that needs to be fixed urgently before your house, your possessions or even your health are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers right away. We are waiting to assist Papatoetoe residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

How did the pipe burst?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you reside in a extremely cold climate, the pipes may have iced up and burst. They may just be old and dilapidated. They may not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots can invade subterranean junctions.

Our after hours plumbers will identify and repair the burst pipes or leaks speedily and precisely.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Problems Resolved

Do you live with a problematic tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant aggravation. Something that may go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like someone playing the bongos in the wee hours, destroying your deams.

It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

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

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our Papatoetoe plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, the team can also provide a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

If it is not annoying enough to warrant repairing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or tie some string around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
