Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

After Hours 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.

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

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as possible to save the day.

In the meantime, start wiping up any water, place a container to catch drips, and remove important things from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, then 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 valves also.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We realise a clogged pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is never a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of after hours plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains cleared.

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our urgent Howick plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we 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.

Do not let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Call our urgent Howick emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not working correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Have some of dishes to take care of? It’s awkward to have a proper clean up when the water is not hot.

When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it remedied fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it hot again fast 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 house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very rapidly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick after hours plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working 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 your existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our friendly team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our team can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even think of them until there’s an issue.

Ususally we never even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out asap, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and health.

The moment a leak is identified, give us a call, and our after hours plumbers will be on the road rapidly. We’re 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 property to minimise further damage.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older house, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and split. In a new house, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Underground connections may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our urgent plumber will locate the issue and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if required to look for other issues.
