Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours Plumber 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 off the water at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as we can to save the day.

In the meantime, start wiping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Howick 24 hour plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health risk that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our after hours plumbing service.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains cleared.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your home quickly to solve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

In the rare case that we can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going 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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to warm up following a chilly day? Got a few of dishes to deal with? It is hard to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

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

Did you know about thiry percent of your household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water disasters damage your pocket, get them fixed fast.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If there is 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 you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, we can schedule to do that in a opportune manner as well.

How did my pipe start leaking?

Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipework if needed to look for other damage.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?

A lot of our clientelle over the years have told us how frustrating it is to live with a dripping or busted tap. You might not even notice the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it’s reverberating around your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a major problem.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call us now.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to resolve that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Howick after hours plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and general 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 twine of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
