Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent Plumbers: 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 off the water at the nearest location or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to fix the leak.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any important items, wipe up any water, and place a container to catch any drips. You also should 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 taps also.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want help right now. Our urgent East Tamaki plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our after hours East Tamaki plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.

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 Problems

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost following a wintery day? Have a few of dishes to deal with? It is difficult to have a proper clean when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it repaired promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it working again asap so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed quickly, the cost will become more expensive by the day.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our East Tamaki urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water working again promptly. 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 the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

The pipes in your residence are a generally concealed but indispensible part of daily life. Big and small, in the ground, in the wall or the roof, they carry fresh water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Most of the time you don’t even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you are looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired asap, to prevent damage to your residence, possessions and health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. We are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to reduce further flooding.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older home, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and cracked. In a new residence, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Underground seals may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will identify the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a problem faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a serious irritation. Something that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, destroying your deams.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vans are well stocked with parts and have a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have the faucet you want, our plumber can install a temporary faucet until we find what you need.

From big to small, our East Tamaki urgent plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a broad range of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

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

Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
