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 water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be at your home as soon as possible to save the day.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and remove significant items from the affected area. If the house 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

After Hours Plumbers Standing By

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Howick emergency plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing right away. That is why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your abode speedily to resolve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require available to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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.

Do not let clogged drains ruin your day. Call our emergency Howick emergency plumbers right away!

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have iced up and burst. In a new house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean junctions could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When our emergency plumber is present, they will identify the problems and fix them in a speedy and professional manner.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is hot water. Do not let the bills increase more, or possibly cause damage to your home, call our emergency plumber right away.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to remedy that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a piece of string of some kind, and knot it onto the tap aerator so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and flow off quietly.
