Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency 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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned 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 tap to cut off all water to your residence.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to resolve the issue.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things close to the leak, and mop up any water or place a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance fast. Our emergency Otara plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.

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 pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and badly require a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Got a pile of dishes to deal with? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is cold.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it sorted 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 always overflowing, you want it hot again as soon as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very quickly.

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

If the old hot water cylinder is not repairable, our helpful team can assist in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can organise an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

Large or little, buried in the garden or within the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a unseen but key part of your daily life. They bring clean water to your house, and remove used water and sewage away.

Most of the time we do not even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired immediately, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and health.

Our emergency plumbers are prepared to be there right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe fail?

There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps can fail. If you live in a extremely cold location, the pipes may have iced up and split. They could simply be aged and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been installed properly to begin with. Tree roots can invade underground pipes.

Our after hours plumbers will identify and fix the broken pipes or leaks quickly and expertly.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Leaks Resolved

Do you own a problem tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

Many customers over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to live with a dripping or defective tap. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but at night when it’s reverberating around the house like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it’s a serious issue.

It’s not only vexing drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking 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 require a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers can rapidly find the cause and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Otara emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and trickle off quietly.
