Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

FAQ: After Hours Plumber

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 tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to find the main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be at your home as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant items from the area, and wipe up any water or put a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Howick 24 hour plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our after hours plumbing service.

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

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our 24 hour Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Got a few of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.

When the hot water isn’t hot enough, you want it to be fixed as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it resolved.

Did you know around thiry percent of the average home power bill is used for hot water heating? A leak may rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to items stored nearby. Don’t let hot water catastrophies damage your wallet, get them repaired as fast as possible.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick after hours plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our helpful team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, we can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is a problem.

Often, we do not even recall their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a significant issue that needs to be sorted out immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

When you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our after hours plumbers as soon as possible. We are waiting to help Howick residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the home.

How did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a recently built residence, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean joins may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the issue and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other damage.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a troublesome faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a major aggravation. A little thing that can go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, disturbing your sleep.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise your bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, give us a ring.

Whether you require an entire new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist 24 hour plumbers will rapidly locate the problem and remedy it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Howick with after hours plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too great or small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a piece of string of some kind, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and dribble off quietly.
