FAQ: After Hours Plumbers

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 service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you’re unable to find the main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce 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, start cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and clear away significant things from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, 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.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Howick emergency plumbers realise that a obstructed drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing immediately. That’s why we have our after hours plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, 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 rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our emergency Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can’t get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until we return.

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 blocked drains ruin your day. Ring our emergency Howick emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got a few of dishes to finish up? It’s a pain to have a good wash when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it fixed fast so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick after hours plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 is not able to be fixed, our helpful team can help pick the best solution for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and worn out, our plumbers can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

Large and little, hidden under the ground or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the various pipes in your residence are a concealed but key part of your daily activities. They carry clean water to your abode, and take dirty water and sewage away.

Normally you never even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and health.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, phone our after hours plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist Howick residents right away. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the property.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older home, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a new residence, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Underground pipes might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our emergency plumber will diagnose the issue and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other problems.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a busted tap? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

We have seen an assortment of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential aggravation, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.

It is not only irritating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you want an entire new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert emergency plumbers can quickly locate the problem and fix it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Howick with after hours plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or small.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a length of string of some type, and knot it around the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the string and flow off quietly.
