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.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate the water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant items from the area, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

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 alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Howick emergency plumbers realise that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing asap. That’s why we provide our on call plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the drains cleared.

Whether it’s the laundry sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our emergency Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.

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 Leaks

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up after a wintery day? Got a few of dishes to finish off? It’s hard to have a proper clean when the water is not hot.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it repaired as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know about thiry percent of your household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water troubles hurt your pocket, get them fixed asap.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick on call plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water working again promptly. 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 the cylinder isn’t repairable, our professional team can help pick the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and area. If the whole system is aged and deteriorating, we can schedule repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is an issue.

Once there is a problem though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your health.

Our on call plumbers are prepared to be on the scene quickly, so contact our plumbers as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have iced up and cracked. In a newer house, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean junctions may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our emergency plumbers can diagnose and fix your burst pipes or leaks speedily and efficiently.

We Have You Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a problematic tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain busted?

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire new tap, our emergency plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are well equipped with parts and carry a modest selection of new taps and faucets to select from if desired.
