Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Emergency Plumber: 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.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to stop all the water to the property.

Once that is sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you rapidly to fix the leak.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the affected area. If the property 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.

It’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Howick after hours plumbers understand that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to right away. That is why we have our emergency plumbing service.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Regardless of whether there is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim 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!

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your home are a generally concealed but key part of your daily life. Large and little, in the ground, within the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Normally, people do not even recall them unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s a major issue that needs to be resolved immediately before your home, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are ready to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent yet more damage.

Why 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 aged and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have frozen and cracked. In a newer residence, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the after hours plumber is present, they can isolate the issues and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a problematic faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping tap can be a significant annoyance. Something that may go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the wee hours, disturbing your sleep.

Not only can it keep the everyone 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 even more, or possibly cause damage to your residence, contact our after hours plumber right away.

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

From large to small, our Howick emergency plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not bad enough to be worth repairing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Or knot some twine around the tap spout long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
