Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to stop all water to the home.

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

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch any 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Blocked Drains Solved

When your drains are overflowing, you need help straight away. Our emergency Howick plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged drains can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need available to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

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 obstructed pipe ruin your day. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put muddy kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Got a few of dishes to take care of? It is awkward to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.

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

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very quickly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick emergency plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. 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 the cylinder isn’t repairable, our friendly team can help pick the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can arrange for upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

The pipes in your house are a largely concealed but vital part of your daily activities. Big or little, in the garden, in the walls or the roof, they bring fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Usually, people do not even think about them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is a major issue that needs to be resolved urgently before your home, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

Our emergency plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for various reasons. They might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they could have iced up in extremely cold weather and split. Tree roots may have invaded subterranean pipes. Or there could be an issue with how the pipes were set up to begin with.

Our 24 hour plumbers can identify and repair the damaged pipes or leaks quickly and professionally.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a problem faucet? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious annoyance. Something that might go unnoticed in the brouhaha of every day life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums in the middle of the night, disturbing your sleep.

Not only can it keep the whole house awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even more, or possibly cause damage to your home, get hold of our 24 hour plumber right away.

Whether you just want a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a modest choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we don’t have what you require, our plumber can install a temporary tap until we find the style you want.

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

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it is not annoying enough to need fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Or knot a piece of twine around the faucet aerator long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
