Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating tap to cut off all water to the residence.

Once you have stopped the diaster from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to solve the problem.

In the meantime, start mopping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away significant items from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 as well.

After Hours Plumbers Standing By

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Howick on call plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing right away. That is why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our on call Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is needed 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 clogged pipes ruin your day. Call our on call Howick emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up following a long cold day? Have a few of dishes to finish off? It’s a pain to have a good wash up when the water is not hot.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. We’ll be there swiftly to figure out the issue and fix it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can swiftly send the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted asap, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Howick after hours plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our professional plumbers can help pick the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is old and worn out, we can schedule upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

When the on call plumber is present, they will identify the problems and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

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

A lot of our clientelle over the years have mentioned how irritating it can be to have a dripping or defective tap. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it’s resounding throughout the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a major issue.

Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Do not let the bills increase even more, or possibly cause damage to your house, call our on call plumber right away.

Whether you need a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert on call plumbers can rapidly diagnose the trouble and fix it. We even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From large to small, our Howick after hours plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad range of emergency 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 aggravating enough to need fixing right this moment, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the sound. Or knot a piece of twine around the tap aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
