Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours 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.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to locate a main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to solve the problem.

In the meantime, start mopping up any water, put a container to catch drips, and clear away important possessions from the area. If the mains water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We realise a clogged drain can be a major problem. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is never a happy circumstance. That is why our team of after hours plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked pipe is a serious problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unclog it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

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

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.

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 and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

Had a hard day at work and desperately want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Have a pile of dishes to finish off? It is never convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it repaired promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it sorted as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can swiftly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed quickly, the cost will become more expensive by the day.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Howick after hours plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 the existing hot water cylinder is not fixable, our helpful team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, our team can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

Big or small, buried under the ground or within the floor, walls or roof, the pipes in your residence are a unseen but integral part of your daily activities. They bring fresh water to your abode, and transfer unclean water and sewage out.

Normally you barely even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it repaired immediately, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and well-being.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our after hours plumbers right away. We are waiting to help Howick residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could help to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe burst?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps may fail. If you live in a extremely cold region, they might have frozen and split. They could simply be old and worn out. The pipes may not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots can grow into underground junctions.

When our 24 hour plumber is present, they can identify the issues and repair them in a rapid and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Tapware Problems Sorted

Do you live with a annoying faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up busted?

A lot of customers over the years have mentioned how vexing it can be to have a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s reverberating throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a major problem.

Not only can it keep the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Do not let the bills increase further, or maybe even cause damage to your home, contact our 24 hour plumber straight away.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All our vehicles are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you require, we can put in a temporary tap until we find what you desire.

From after hours plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or minor for our Howick plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, we can also provide a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

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

If it is not bad enough to warrant fixing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the noise. Alternatively knot some string around the tap spout long enough to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
