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.

If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest location and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be there promptly to fix the leak.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any significant items, wipe up any water, and put a container to catch drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 Fixed

Our Papatoetoe on call plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health risk that needs attending to asap. That’s why we have our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a professional there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

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

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It’s difficult to have a good wash when the water is cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it hot again as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

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

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Papatoetoe urgent plumbers right away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 your cylinder is not able to be fixed, our professional plumbers can help pick the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is tired and deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there’s a problem.

Usually, you never even recall their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is a serious issue that needs to be resolved urgently before your home, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

When you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers asap. Our team are waiting to assist Papatoetoe residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it may help to turn off the water to the home.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they may have frozen and cracked. In a newer residence, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if needed to check for other damage.

All Taps Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a troublesome tap? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

We have been called to all sorts of tap issues over the years, and know that even a tiny drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor annoyance, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

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

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our on call plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are well equipped with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have the faucet you require, we can put in a temporary faucet until we locate the style you desire.

From big to small, our Papatoetoe urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a broad range of emergency and general plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and flow off quietly.
