Safety first! Electricity and water are not a good mix, so switch the electricity off at the power panel if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to find the tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.
While you wait, begin mopping up any water, place a container to catch any drips, and remove important things from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
The primary isolating valve will generally be on the boundary of your property near the road. It is usually set into the ground below a blue or black cover.
Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.
Our Otago on call plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing immediately. That’s why we have our after hours plumbing service.
A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it using a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!
Whether it’s the bathroom sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our urgent Otago plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.
All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally 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 required as soon as possible.
We endorse attempting to clear minor blockages using a plunger if you have one. However, if you don't have a plunger, or it does not clear the clog, we don't recommend chemicals as they seldom get the job done well, and can cause more damage to your drains.
Don’t let blocked pipes ruin your day. Ring our same day Otago emergency plumbers now!
We generally do not realise how heavily you depend on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished in the garage and really need a shower? Want to finish up a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s tepid.
When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very quickly.
If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Otago after hours plumbers right away. We will get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and area. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, we can arrange to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.
Big and little, hidden subterranean or within the floor, wall or roof, the pipes in your home are a unseen but key part of daily activities. They bring clean water to your residence, and transfer used water and sewage out.
Most of the time we do not even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed without delay, to prevent damage to your residence, possessions and well-being.
As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our after hours plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to help Otago residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the home.
There are many reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you reside in a very cold climate, they may have iced up and cracked. They may just be old and past their use-by. They may not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots can grow into subterranean pipes.
Our on call plumbers will identify and fix the broken pipes or leaks quickly and efficiently.
Do you own a faucet that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether broken?
Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a major vexation. A little thing that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the middle of the night, disturbing your shuteye.
Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, call our team now.
From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to halt that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if needed.
From large to small, our Otago after hours plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a wide selection of urgent and day to day plumbing services.
The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?
Find a length of string of some kind, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
