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 leaking, turn off the water at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our emergency plumber, clear away any important items, mop up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 taps as well.

Blocked Drains Problems

We understand a blocked drain can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That’s why our crew of after hours plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can fix it on your own with a plunger and some know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your abode rapidly to solve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require on hand to repair almost all drain blockages 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 tide you over 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 ruin your day. Call us now!

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our after hours plumbers without delay. Our team are waiting to assist Howick residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the property.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they may simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a new residence, there could be an issue with how they were installed. Underground joins might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When our urgent plumber arrives, they will isolate the problems and repair them in a rapid and expert manner.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a troublesome tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even more, or maybe even cause damage to your house, ring our urgent plumber straight away.

Whether you want a whole replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional urgent plumbers can quickly find the cause and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our Howick after hours plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and tie it onto the tap aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
