Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency Plumber

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 off the water at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give us a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant possessions close to the leak, and mop up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating 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 valves as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We understand a obstructed drain can be a serious problem. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is never a good thing. That’s why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible however, you need a plumber there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your home speedily to resolve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare instance that we can not get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers return.

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 send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Have a pile of of dishes to deal with? It is difficult to have a proper wash when the water is cold.

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

Hot water leaks can quickly push your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired promptly, the cost can become more costly by the day.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not fixable, our helpful plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If your whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can schedule improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

The pipes in your house are a generally hidden but vital part of everyday life. Large and little, under the ground, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Usually, we don’t even think about their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is usually a significant problem that needs to be fixed immediately before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to help Howick residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for various reasons. They might simply be old and worn out. Or they could have frozen in very cold weather and burst. Tree roots might have forced open underground pipes. Or there could be a problem with how they were set up in the first place.

Once the 24 hour plumber arrives, they will isolate the issues and repair them in a speedy and professional manner.

All Taps Covered

Tapware Leaks Solved
