Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency 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 isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any important things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

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.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Fixed

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

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unclogged.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to prevent further damage and get back 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.

Do not let blocked pipes ruin your day. Ring our after hours Papakura emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Have some of dishes to take care of? It is hard to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has let you down, give our team a call. Our plumbers will be there swiftly to diagnose the issue and fix it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very rapidly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Papakura emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not fixable, our reliable team can help in finding the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

From the small clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even think of them until there is a problem.

Often, people do not even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s generally a significant problem that needs to be resolved urgently before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to be there right away, so ring us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have iced up in very frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have forced open underground connections. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will locate the problem and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if required to check for other damage.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tapware Leaks Fixed

Do you own a irksome tap? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?

Many customers over the years have told us how frustrating it is to have a dripping or defective tap. You might not even notice the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it is echoing throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a major problem.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even higher, or maybe even cause damage to your house, get hold of our after hours plumber straight away.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need on hand to resolve your leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Papakura with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too big or little.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

Find a length of string of some type, and tie it around the tap spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and trickle off quietly.
