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 location or at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

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

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin mopping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and remove significant things 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Howick on call plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That is why we offer our after hours plumbing service.

Obestructed drains can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the drains cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s 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 again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires other equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are completed.

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 clogged drains ruin your day. Call our on call Howick emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

We usually do not think about how heavily you depend on easy fast hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a shower? Time to take care of a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and find it’s barely warm.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again fast so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very quickly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick after hours plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. 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 your cylinder isn’t fixable, our professional plumbers can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a largely unseen but integral part of everyday activities. Large or small, under the ground, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they carry fresh water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.

Normally, people never even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a serious issue that needs to be fixed urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be on the road quickly. We’re ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise further damage.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and ruptured. In a new house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground seals may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our on call plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and fix them in a rapid and expert manner.

All Taps Handled

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a troublesome faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious aggravation. Something that may go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like a jack hammer at 2am, destroying your shuteye.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s hot water. Do not let the bills increase even higher, or possibly cause damage to your home, contact our on call plumber now.

Whether you want a whole new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist on call plumbers will speedily locate the problem and solve it. Our plumbers even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Howick after hours plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

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