Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ After Hours Plumbers

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 service valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there promptly to resolve the issue.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and remove important items from the area. If the property water is turned off, then 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 also.

After Hours Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance right now. Our after hours Howick plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Blocked pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the pipes unclogged.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Regardless of whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

In the rare case that we can’t get the obstruction completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going 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 a blocked pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is awkward to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it fixed promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it sorted asap so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can swiftly push your power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted as fast as possible, it can become more costly by the day.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick after hours plumbers straight away. We will get your hot water working again quickly. If you find a lot 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 able to be fixed, our professional team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, we can organise improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We never even remember them until there is an issue.

Usually, people don’t even recall them unless something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s usually a major issue that must be sorted immediately before the building, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

Our after hours plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further flooding by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe start leaking?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you live in a very cold region, the pipes may have iced up and burst. They might simply be old and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been installed properly in the first place. Tree roots may grow into subterranean junctions.

When our on call plumber arrives, they will isolate the issues and fix them in a quick and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tap Leaks Sorted

Do you have a defective tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a serious vexation. A little thing that may go unnoticed in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, destroying your sleep.

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

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole new faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have the tap you want, we can install an interim faucet until we track down the style you want.

From after hours plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Howick plumbers. Not only can we fix your leaking taps, the team can also provide a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

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

If it’s not annoying enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the noise. Alternatively tie some twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
