Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

24 Hour 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 there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to find the water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once that is sorted, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things, clean up any water, and position a container to catch drips. You also should turn 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 Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you need help fast. Our 24 hour Howick plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need someone there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our urgent Howick plumbers will quickly locate the problem and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that we can’t get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to get you through 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We often don’t think about how frequently we rely on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished in the garden and really want a shower? Time to finish up a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s barely warm.

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

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Howick 24 hour plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not fixable, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, we can arrange for upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is a problem.

Normally, you don’t even think about them until something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s a significant issue that needs to be sorted urgently before the building, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is found, give us a ring, and our 24 hour plumbers will be with you quickly. We’re waiting to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise yet more damage.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and cracked. In a newer house, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground pipes may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When the urgent plumber is present, they can identify the issues and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

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

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a major vexation. Something that may go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums at 2am, destroying your sleep.

Not only can it keep the whole house awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Don’t let the bills increase more, or possibly cause damage to your house, ring our urgent plumber now.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need on hand to resolve your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Howick with 24 hour plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or little.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If the drip is not annoying enough to need fixing right now, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Alternatively knot a piece of string around the tap aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
