Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Emergency Plumbers

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 an isolating 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 tap to cut off all water to the residence.

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

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and place a bucket to catch drips. You should also 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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Howick same day plumbers know that a blocked drain can be a major health risk that needs attending to as soon as possible. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

A clogged drain is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our same day Howick plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can’t get the blockage completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

You regularly do not realise how frequently we rely on effortless quick hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Want to finish off a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s barely warm.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it fixed fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it sorted fast so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can quickly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired speedily, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Howick emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water working 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 your existing hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our reliable team can help in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our team can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there is a problem.

Normally we don’t even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed immediately, to minimise damage to your home, possessions and well-being.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to prevent yet more leaking.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a variety of reasons. They might simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they could have frozen in extremely frigid weather and ruptured. Tree roots could have grown into underground connections. Or there might be an issue with how they were installed to begin with.

When the same day plumber arrives, they can locate the problems and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Tap Leaks Solved

Do you have a troublesome tap? A tap that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

Many customers over the years have told us how vexing it can be to have a dripping or defective tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it is reverberating throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a major problem.

It isn’t just aggravating drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole new tap, our same day plumbers have got what you require. All the vehicles are well stocked with parts and carry a small choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we do not have the tap you need, our plumber can put in a temporary faucet until we locate what you need.

From large to small, our Howick emergency plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a wide selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a length of string of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
