Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency Plumber

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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to cut off all water to your property.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They will be there quickly to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away valuable things from the affected area. If the house 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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

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

Blocked drains can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need someone there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required 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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Have some of dishes to finish off? It’s difficult to have a proper wash when the water is cold.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a call. We’ll be there swiftly to figure out the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Hot water leaks can quickly put the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted as soon as possible, the cost will become more expensive by the day.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Papakura emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. 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 solution for your budget, requirements and area. If your entire hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can arrange to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

From the small clean water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there’s a problem.

Once there is an issue though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it fixed immediately to prevent damage to your home, your possessions and even your health.

Our emergency plumbers are set to get to you right away, so call us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for a variety of reasons. They may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they could have frozen in extremely wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots might have invaded underground connections. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

When they arrive, our after hours plumber will diagnose the problem and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other issues.

Tapware Problems Sorted

Do you have a defective faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

Many our clientelle over the years have told us how frustrating it is to have a dripping or broken tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s resounding throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant issue.

Whether you want a whole new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers can rapidly locate the cause and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Papakura emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
