Urgent Plumber 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 tap outside. If you cannot find the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important things, wipe up any water, and put a container to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 Maraetai on call plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing right away. That’s why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our on call Maraetai plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

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

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 clogged drains ruin your day. Call our on call Maraetai emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Problems

Had a hard day at work and badly need a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have a few dishes to take care of? It is rarely handy to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very rapidly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Maraetai urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our reliable plumbers can help in identifying the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our plumbers can organise improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your house are a normally concealed but very important part of your everyday activities. Big and little, in the ground, within the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally we never even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we are looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out as soon as possible, to prevent damage to your home, furnishings and well-being.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to assist Maraetai residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.

How did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and burst. In a newer home, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean pipes could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our on call plumber will locate the problem and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if needed to check for other damage.

All Taps Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious annoyance. Something that can go unnoticed in the brouhaha of daily life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, disturbing your shuteye.

It is not just frustrating drips though. Leaks may push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is getting down 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 an entire new faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are fully equipped with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. 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 Maraetai urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a wide selection of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of tap, we can frequently replace worn out parts on the spot for a very acceptable outlay.
