Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

On Call 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water valve to stop all water to the residence.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, start wiping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and clear away important items 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.

Blocked Drains Problems

We understand a clogged drain can be a serious problem. 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 on call plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

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

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home rapidly to resolve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires other equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to get you through 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 a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to warm up following a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to take care of? It is awkward to have a good wash when the water is not hot.

When your hot water has let you down, give us a call. We will be there promptly to figure out the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your wallet very rapidly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick on call plumbers right away. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our friendly team can help in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, we can arrange improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

From the small clean water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there is a problem.

Most of the time you do not even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed asap, to minimise damage to your home, possessions and health.

As soon as a leak is found, give us a call, and our on call plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re ready to answer day or night. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise further damage.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for many reasons. They might simply be old and worn out. Or they may have frozen in very cold weather and ruptured. Tree roots might have grown into subterranean pipes. Or there might be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

Once our urgent plumber arrives, they will identify the issues and fix them in a expeitious and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Leaks Fixed

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

We’ve been called to an assortment of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor aggravation, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just vexing drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

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

From big to small, our Howick on call plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a wide selection of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

If it’s not bad enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the sound. Or tie some twine around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
