Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent Plumbers 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.

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

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, remove any important possessions from the area, and mop up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our urgent Howick plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to minimise 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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

Had a hard day at work and desperately need a hot shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a pile of dishes to deal with? It’s never convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is tepid.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is luke warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it remedied asap so you can get back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very quickly.

If 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 promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and area. If your entire hot water system requires upgrading, we can arrange to do that in a opportune fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

The pipes in your home are a largely concealed but vital part of your everyday life. Large or small, in the ground, within the walls or the ceiling, they bring fresh water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally, people do not even think about them until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s a serious problem that must be fixed immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be with you quickly. Our team are ready to answer day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to minimise yet more leaking.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older residence, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and burst. In a newer home, there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the on call plumber arrives, they will identify the problems and fix them in a expeitious and expert manner.

All Tapware Handled

Tapware Problems Solved

Do you own a annoying faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright broken?

We’ve been called to a range of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like elephants tapdancing in the small hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a trivial aggravation, can suddenly become a dire plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise more, or possibly cause damage to your residence, get hold of our on call plumber straight away.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to halt that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

From urgent plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Howick plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team can also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and dribble off quietly.
