Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Urgent Plumber

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 water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that’s done, give our team a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you rapidly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, wipe up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You should also switch 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help asap. Our urgent Howick plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

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

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home quickly to solve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers come back.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately want a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have a few dishes to finish off? It’s rarely opportune to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is barely warm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it repaired asap so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual home’s power 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’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our friendly team can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can arrange improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Urgent Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a largely unseen but significant part of your daily life. Big or small, in the garden, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Ususally we barely even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed asap, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and health.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe fail?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you live in a very cold climate, the pipes might have iced up and split. They may just be aged and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots can invade subterranean pipes.

Once our after hours plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and fix them in a quick and professional manner.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a troublesome tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

We’ve seen all sorts of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a minor drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the small 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 just vexing drips though. Leaks can run up your 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 little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

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

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

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

Find a piece of string of some kind, and tie it around the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
