Call MartinGeysers are the job we get phoned about most, and for good reason. A geyser works hard every single day, and when one part gives up the symptoms all look much the same: no hot water, water that is too hot, or a drip from somewhere it should not be.
A geyser that is not hot is not always a geyser that needs replacing. Often it is the element, the thermostat or a tripped breaker. We test before we quote, so you only pay for the part that has actually gone.
What we get called for
No hot water
Element, thermostat, isolator or breaker. Tested one by one until we know which.
Water running from the overflow
Usually a tired pressure control or safety valve. Replaced so it stops wasting water.
Leaking or burst geyser
If the tank itself has split, we replace it. If it is a fitting, we repair it.
Geyser electrical faults
Element and thermostat wiring, the isolator switch and the circuit breaker for the geyser.
Drip trays and vacuum breakers
Missing or rusted through. Fitted properly so the next leak goes outside, not into your ceiling.
How we handle a geyser call
- 1
First we make it safe: water off, power off at the board.
- 2
Then we test the element, thermostat and valves so we know exactly what has failed. You get the price for that before we start.
- 3
If the geyser has reached the end of its life, we tell you straight and give you the option of a replacement instead of a repair that will not last.
Common questions
Should I repair or replace my geyser?
If the tank is sound and only a part has failed, repair it. If the tank itself is leaking or rusted, replacing it is the only fix that lasts. We will tell you which one it is.
Can you do geyser repairs for insurance?
Yes. We regularly help with insurance geyser claims and can supply the report and photos.
Do you do the electrical side of the geyser too?
Yes. Elements, thermostats, the isolator switch and the circuit breaker for the geyser are all part of the job.
