Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours 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.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to stop all water to the residence.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important items, wipe up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You should also turn 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’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

We realise a obstructed pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our crew of after hours plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it with a plunger. However if you can not, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it is the kitchen sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Otara plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and return 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

Had a hard day at work and desperately require a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Have some dishes to take care of? It is seldom opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. We’ll be there promptly to diagnose the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

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

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Otara after hours 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 turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t repairable, our professional team can help pick the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and worn out, our plumbers can organise repairs at a time that suits you as well.

After Hours Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

The pipes in your residence are a normally concealed but very important part of your daily activities. Large or little, under the ground, within the walls or the roof, they bring fresh water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is worrying stuff, and you want it fixed asap to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your health.

Our after hours plumbers are prepared to be there quickly, so contact us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you own an older residence, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and split. In a recently built house, there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the 24 hour plumber arrives, they will locate the issues and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a problem tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how aggravating it is to have a dripping or defective tap. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is echoing around your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant issue.

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

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a modest selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have the tap you want, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we track down the style you want.

As well as providing Otara with after hours plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or little.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it’s not annoying enough to need fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Or knot a piece of twine around the tap aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
