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 taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating valve to stop all the water to your residence.

Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to fix the leak.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important items, wipe up any water, and place a container to catch drips. You also should 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Blocked Drains Problems

We realise a obstructed pipe can be a serious problem. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a good thing. That’s why our crew of urgent plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.

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

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Regardless of whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers return.

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 blocked drains ruin your day. Ring our 24 hour Howick emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

Had a hard day at work and badly require a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have a sink-full of dishes to deal with? It is never opportune to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has let you down, give us a ring. Our plumbers will be there quickly to identify the problem and get it fixed. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed quickly, it will become more costly by the hour.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 you need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, requirements and location. If your whole hot water system requires improvements, we can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Urgent Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

The pipes in your home are a largely unseen but significant part of your everyday activities. Big or little, subterranean, within the walls or the ceiling, they carry clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Often, you don’t even remember their existence until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a major issue that must be sorted immediately before the building, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

When you identify a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers asap. Our team are waiting to assist Howick residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe fail?

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

Our 24 hour plumbers can identify and fix your damaged pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a troublesome faucet? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how vexing it can be to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it’s echoing throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a major problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send the bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your residence, call our team now.

Whether you require a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert 24 hour plumbers can efficiently locate the trouble and resolve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Howick urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a wide range of urgent and general plumbing services.

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

If it is not bad enough to need fixing right this moment, you can put a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to minimise the sound. Or tie some string around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
