Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent 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 you can, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant items, clean up any water, and put a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 also.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Howick same day plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs fixing right away. That is why we have our urgent plumbing service.

Blocked drains 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 however, you need someone there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

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

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.

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.

Do not let a blocked drain send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

You generally do not realise how much you count on effortless quick hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Need to finish off a pile of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s tepid.

When your hot water has let you down, give us a ring. We’ll be there quickly to diagnose the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very rapidly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find 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 existing hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our helpful team can help in identifying the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, we can organise an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

The pipes in your residence are a normally concealed but significant part of everyday life. Big or little, underground, within the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry clean water to you and take the used stuff away.

Once there is an issue though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it fixed immediately to prevent damage to your house, your contents and even your health.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be there quickly, so call us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and cracked. In a newer house, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean junctions may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our same day plumber will identify the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other problems.

All Taps Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a problematic faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain busted?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a significant vexation. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, disturbing your shuteye.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your residence, give us a ring.

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

As well as providing Howick with urgent plumbing of all types, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too large or minor.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?

If it’s not bad enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the noise. Or knot a piece of string around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
