Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

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.

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

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They will be there quickly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin cleaning up any water, place a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable items from the area. If the mains 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

We realise a obstructed pipe can be a major problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked drain is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it using a plunger. But if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your abode speedily to solve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 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 nice warm shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Have a pile of dishes to finish off? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it sorted fast so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of the average household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Papatoetoe urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We will 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 switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t fixable, our helpful team can help pick the best solution for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is aged and worn out, our plumbers can organise upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

Large or small, hidden in the garden or within the floor, wall or roof, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but vital part of everyday life. They carry fresh water to your residence, and remove unclean water and sewage out.

Normally, we don’t even think about their existence until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a significant problem that needs to be sorted immediately before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

Our urgent plumbers are set to get to you right away, so contact our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and burst. In a newer house, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the on call plumber arrives, they will identify the problems and repair them in a quick and professional manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a troublesome tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

A lot of our clientelle over the years have told us how vexing it can be to live with a dripping or broken tap. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is echoing around your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a serious issue.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills increase further, or maybe even cause damage to your house, call our on call plumber right away.

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire new faucet, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All our vehicles are well stocked with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have the tap you need, we can put in a temporary faucet until we track down what you want.

From big to small, our Papatoetoe urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it’s not bad enough to warrant fixing right now, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to diminish the racket. Or tie a piece of twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
