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 water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our plumber a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there rapidly to fix the leak.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items from the area, and clean up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also 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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you want assistance quickly. Our urgent Howick plumbers know how frustrating and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes cleared.

Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our after hours Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

All 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 resolve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed 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 obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Got some dishes to finish off? It’s seldom handy to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is tepid.

When your hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a ring. We’ll be there promptly to figure out the problem and fix it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can repair them and get your life back to normal.

Hot water leaks can quickly push the power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed asap, the cost can become more costly by the hour.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick urgent plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find 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 existing hot water cylinder is not repairable, our reliable team can assist in finding the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our team can schedule improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

Large or little, hidden in the earth or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your home are a unseen but integral part of everyday life. They bring fresh water to your home, and take unclean water and sewage out.

Once there is an issue though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it fixed immediately to prevent damage to your home, your possessions and even your well-being.

The moment a leak is identified, give our team a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re ready to answer night or day. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to reduce further damage.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older residence, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have iced up and ruptured. In a recently built home, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean connections may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When our after hours plumber arrives, they will locate the issues and fix them in a speedy and professional manner.

All Taps Handled

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a troublesome faucet? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?

Many customers over the years have mentioned how aggravating it is to live with a dripping or broken tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it is resounding around your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

It’s not only aggravating drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is 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.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our after hours plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vehicles are fully equipped with parts and have a modest choice of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we do not have the tap you need, we can put in a temporary tap until we locate the style you need.

As well as serving Howick with urgent plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or minor.

Why is my tap dripping?

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can often replace worn out parts immediately for a very modest cost.
