Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Emergency 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 leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant items, clean up any water, and place a bucket 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.

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

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Otara after hours plumbers realise that a obstructed pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we have our emergency plumbing service.

A obstructed drain is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our after hours Otara plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and resolve 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’ll temporarily resolve the problem to prevent further damage and get back 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 pipe get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the shower? Need a good soak to warm up following a freezing day? Have some of dishes to finish up? It’s a pain to have a proper clean up when the water is not hot.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it sorted 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 want it hot again asap so your life can get back to normal.

Did you know about thiry percent of the average home electricity bill is used for hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your house and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water calamities hurt your pocket, get them resolved as fast as possible.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Otara emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working 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 your old hot water cylinder is not repairable, our friendly plumbers can assist in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our team can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there’s a problem.

Often, you don’t even recall them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is generally a major problem that must be sorted immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to help Otara residents right away. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the house.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older home, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a recently built home, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Underground pipes might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When our after hours plumber is present, they can isolate the issues and repair them in a quick and professional manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Leaks Fixed

Do you have a troublesome tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?

We’ve been called to all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant niggle, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even more, or possibly cause damage to your house, get hold of our after hours plumber straight away.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to stop your leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Otara plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, we can also offer a wide range of other plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it’s not aggravating enough to need repairing right this moment, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the noise. Or tie a piece of string around the faucet spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
