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 access point or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to fix the leak.

In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, put 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance quickly. Our urgent Papakura plumbers know how disheartening and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Obestructed drains can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains unclogged.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether there is a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until our plumbers return.

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 Tank Not Working

We generally don’t realise how heavily you rely upon effortless quick hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really need a shower? Need to deal with a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s cold.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it remedied fast. 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 need it sorted fast so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know around 30% of your home power bill is used for hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water catastrophies damage your wallet, get them repaired as soon as possible.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Papakura urgent plumbers straight away. We will get the 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 cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is aged and deteriorating, we can organise repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

The pipes in your house are a generally hidden but important part of your daily activities. Big or small, in the ground, within the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry clean water to you and take the used stuff away.

Usually, we barely even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a major issue that needs to be fixed urgently before your home, your possessions or even your health are damaged or ruined.

Our urgent plumbers are set to be on the scene right away, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and cracked. In a new home, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Underground connections might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our on call plumbers can diagnose and fix your broken pipes or leaks speedily and expertly.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a troublesome tap? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a major vexation. A little thing that can go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums in the wee hours, destroying your sleep.

It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks may push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you require an entire new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert on call plumbers can rapidly identify the issue and solve it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Papakura with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or minor.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If the drip is not annoying enough to be worth repairing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or knot some string around the faucet spout long enough to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
