Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Urgent Plumber

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.

Many appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to cut off all the water to the residence.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant items from the area, and clean up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also 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.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance asap. Our urgent Otara plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes unclogged.

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

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying problem that requires other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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 clogged pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

You usually don’t realise how frequently we count upon easy fast hot water until it is not there anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Want to deal with some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

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

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

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Otara urgent plumbers straight away. 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 turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not repairable, our professional team can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, our plumbers can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Urgent Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

Large and little, buried in the garden or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a concealed but indispensible part of daily life. They bring clean water to your house, and take used water and sewage out.

Normally, people do not even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is usually a serious problem that needs to be fixed immediately before the building, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers without delay. We are waiting to assist Otara residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the property.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and cracked. In a new residence, there could be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our same day plumbers will diagnose and fix your broken pipes or leaks rapidly and precisely.

All Taps Handled

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

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

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious irritation. A little thing that may go unheard in the brouhaha of daily life without warning sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, destroying your sleep.

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

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to resolve that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Otara with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or little.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a piece of twine of some type, and tie it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and trickle off quietly.
