Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

After Hours 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff valve to stop all water to your home.

Once that is sorted, give us a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to get things sorted.

In the meantime, start cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away important things from the area. If the house 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 Issues

Our Otara on call plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That’s why we offer our after hours plumbing service.

A blocked pipe is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your abode quickly to solve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we 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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Problems

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Got some of dishes to take care of? It’s difficult to have a good wash when the water is cold.

When your hot water has fallen short, give our plumbers a ring. We’ll be there quickly to diagnose the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very swiftly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Otara after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our professional team can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is aged and deteriorating, we can organise upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

Large and small, hidden subterranean or within the floor, wall or roof, the pipes in your residence are a hidden but important part of everyday activities. They bring clean water to your house, and remove unclean water and sewage away.

Most of the time you don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed asap, to prevent damage to your home, belongings and health.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be with you quickly. Our team are waiting to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise further flooding.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. The pipes might simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have frozen in very cold weather and cracked. Tree roots could have grown into subterranean seals. Or there may be an issue with how the pipes were set up in the first place.

When the on call plumber arrives, they can isolate the problems and fix them in a prompt and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Leaks Solved

Do you own a busted faucet? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like a jack hammer in the middle of the night, ruining your deams.

It’s not only irritating drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to resolve that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Otara with after hours plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or minor.

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

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