Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent 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 cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff tap to stop all water to your home.

Once that is done, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to fix the leak.

In the meantime, start cleaning up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the area. If the property water is turned off, 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance as soon as possible. Our urgent Papakura plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it’s 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 things flowing once more.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.

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 Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately need a hot shower? Time to put the children in the tub? Have some dishes to finish up? It’s rarely handy to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is lukewarm.

If the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it to be hot again as soon as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can quickly identify the problem and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very rapidly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Papakura urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your old hot water cylinder is not repairable, our friendly team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Urgent Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We never even remember them until there is a problem.

Often, people do not even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a serious issue that needs to be fixed immediately before the building, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

The moment a leak is found, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. We’re ready to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise yet more leaking.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a recently built house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our on call plumber will identify the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply defective?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how vexing it is to have a dripping or broken tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s echoing throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a major issue.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call our team now.

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole new tap, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All our vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have what you require, our plumber can install an interim tap until we find the style you want.

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

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

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very acceptable expenditure.
