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 there is still water leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to find the main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once that is done, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch any drips, and remove significant possessions 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our urgent Papatoetoe plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Clogged drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes cleared.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our 24 hour Papatoetoe plumbers will quickly identify the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over 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.

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

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and badly need a hot shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Have some dishes to finish up? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is lukewarm.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you need it to be remedied speedily. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Did you know around 30% of your home power bill is used on hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your home and to items stored nearby. Don’t let hot water woes hurt your wallet, get them repaired asap.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Papatoetoe urgent plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our professional team can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is aged and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is an issue.

Ususally we barely even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you are standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired without delay, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re ready to answer day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise yet more flooding.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a variety of reasons. The pipes may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very wintery weather and split. Tree roots might have forced open subterranean joints. Or there may be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will identify the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if needed to check for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether broken?

Many clients over the years have told us how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or broken tap. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is resounding around your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a major problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your house, call us now.

Whether you require a whole new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert 24 hour plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and remedy it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From urgent plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Papatoetoe plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we can also provide a broad selection of other plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

If it is not bad enough to need repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to diminish the noise. Or tie some string around the tap aerator sufficient to touch the base of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
