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.

If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as possible to save the day.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important items close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating 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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We understand a blocked drain can be a major problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

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

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed 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.

Do not let a obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

Had a hard day at work and desperately want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Got a pile of dishes to finish up? It is never opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is barely warm.

When the hot water isn’t hot enough, you need it to be remedied speedily. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Papatoetoe emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We will 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 your old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

The pipes in your house are a largely hidden but vital part of your daily life. Big and little, underground, in the wall or the ceiling, they bring fresh water to you and take the used stuff away.

As soon as you find an issue though, it is the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you need it fixed immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your belongings and even your health.

The moment a leak is found, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be with you rapidly. We are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise further leaking.

Why did the pipe burst?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you live in a extremely cold climate, the pipes might have frozen and split. They may just be aged and worn out. They might not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots may force open subterranean junctions.

When they arrive, our after hours plumber will diagnose the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other problems.

All Taps Handled

Tapware Issues Fixed

Do you own a defective tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?

Many our clientelle over the years have told us how vexing it can be to live with a dripping or busted tap. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is echoing throughout the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant problem.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your residence, give us a ring.

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

As well as providing Papatoetoe with emergency plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too great or little.

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

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it around the tap spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and dribble off quietly.
