Emergency 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.

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

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We will be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.

While you wait, start wiping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove significant possessions 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 also.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We know a obstructed drain can be a serious problem. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is never a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked pipe is a serious problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it yourself using a plunger. But if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything 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 resolve the complication to minimise further damage and return 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 clogged drains ruin your day. Call our on call Howick emergency plumbers now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Have a few of dishes to finish off? It’s hard to have a good wash up when the water is cold.

When the hot water is not up to temperature, you want it to be working again fast. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can swiftly send the power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired asap, the cost will become more costly by the day.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick emergency plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a large amount 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 replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best solution for your budget, requirements and location. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there is an issue.

Often, you never even remember their existence until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is generally a major issue that needs to be sorted out immediately before the building, your belongings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is identified, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road quickly. Our team are ready to answer 24/7. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to prevent yet more leaking.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and cracked. In a new home, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our on call plumber will diagnose the problem and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other problems.

All Taps Handled

Tap Leaks Resolved

Do you own a irksome tap? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain broken?

We have been called to a range of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a insignificant aggravation, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole new tap, our on call plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vehicles are fully stocked with parts and have a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have the faucet you need, we can install an interim faucet until we track down what you need.

From big to small, our Howick emergency plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it is not aggravating enough to be worth fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to minimise the sound. Alternatively tie a piece of string around the tap spout sufficient to touch the base of the basin, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
