When to call Aqua Works, and why you shouldn’t wait
Water leaking, flooding or a burst pipe
Even a small leak can quickly turn into serious damage, get it under control fast.
No water or sudden loss of pressure
Especially common with tank and pump systems, and something that needs urgent attention.
No hot water or a leaking cylinder
If your hot water stops, is inconsistent, or the cylinder is leaking or overflowing, it won’t fix itself.
Your water pump has stopped working
No pump = no water. Especially urgent on rural or lifestyle properties.
Blocked drains backing up or overflowing
Wastewater coming back up, gully traps overflowing, or drains that suddenly stop working.
Overflowing wastewater or strong sewage smells
This is a health risk and needs to be dealt with immediately.
Strange changes in your water system
Sudden pressure drops, temperature changes, or unusual noises can point to bigger issues.
A plumbing problem that’s getting worse quickly
If something doesn’t feel right or is escalating, it’s better to act early than deal with bigger damage later.
FAQs about Emergency Plumbing Rodney
What counts as a plumbing emergency?
Anything that is causing damage or has left you without water. That includes a burst or leaking pipe, water coming through a ceiling or wall, a leaking or failed hot water cylinder, an overflowing toilet or drain, and no water at all because your pump has stopped.
If you are not sure, call us. We will tell you honestly whether it needs someone now or can safely wait until the morning.
How do I reach Aqua Works after hours?
Call our 24/7 line on 021 278 7427 any time, day or night, including weekends and public holidays. During office hours, Monday to Friday 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, you can also call 0800 278 296.
Which areas do you cover for emergency call outs?
We cover Rodney and North Auckland, from Mangawhai to Albany. That includes Warkworth, Matakana, Snells Beach, Omaha, Leigh, Wellsford, Orewa, Silverdale, Millwater and Whangaparāoa. Our team is based in Warkworth, so we are never far away.
How quickly can an emergency plumber get to me?
Because we are a local team, we can usually get to you quickly. From our Warkworth base, Matakana is about 15 minutes away. When you call, we will give you an honest idea of when a plumber will arrive, based on where you are and what else is happening that day.
What should I do while I wait for an emergency plumber?
- Turn off the water at the toby, or switch off your water pump at the wall if you are on tank water.
- If your hot water cylinder is leaking, turn off its power at the switchboard.
- Move valuables away from the water and use towels or buckets to contain it.
- Stop using sinks, showers and toilets connected to a blocked drain.
- Keep clear of any water near power points or electrical fittings.
Does Aqua Works charge more for after-hours plumbing call outs?
Yes. Call outs outside normal working hours are charged at an after-hours rate. We will explain the cost when you call, before we head out, so there are no surprises.
Can you fix my water pump in an emergency?
Yes, usually on the same visit. Our vans carry at least four new water pumps, so we can get you up and running again quickly.
A failed pump is one of the most common reasons rural and lifestyle properties lose water. Find out more about our emergency water pump repairs.
Do you handle emergency hot water cylinder repairs?
Yes. If your cylinder is leaking, has stopped heating, or its relief valve will not stop running, call us. We will make it safe, fix what we can on the spot, and arrange a replacement if it is beyond repair. See our emergency hot water service.

“Excellent experience. Technician turned up on Sunday am, within 90mins of call out, which included him going to the store to pick up the parts. This was so important, as without their help the Childcare center would not have been able to open on the Monday. Thanks to Sherrie, Richard and the team.“
