Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

Emergency 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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to resolve the problem.

While waiting, remove any important items from the area, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you need help asap. Our emergency Howick plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your home speedily to solve the problem. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to tide you over until our plumbers 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 blocked pipes ruin your day. Call our 24 hour Howick emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

You regularly don’t think about how much you count upon easy fast hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Time to deal with a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it working again fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly push the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted as fast as possible, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

If you find 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 flowing again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick the best option for your budget, requirements and location. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, we can schedule to do that in a timely manner as well.

Emergency Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

The pipes in your house are a generally unseen but vital part of everyday life. Large or little, under the ground, within the walls or the ceiling, they bring fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Ususally we barely even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we’re looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out without delay, to minimise damage to your residence, furnishings and health.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be there right away, so call our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe burst?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you reside in a cold region, they might have frozen and ruptured. They may just be aged and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots may force open underground joins.

Once the 24 hour plumber is present, they can identify the issues and fix them in a rapid and expert manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a irksome faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

Many our clientelle over the years have mentioned how annoying it can be to have a dripping or defective tap. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is echoing throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a sigificant problem.

It is not just vexing drips though. Leaks may run 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 small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you require a whole replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist 24 hour plumbers will rapidly diagnose the cause and fix it. We even carry a small selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too extensive or minor for our Howick plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we can also offer a broad range of additional plumbing services.

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

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