Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ: Emergency 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 still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to fix the leak.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important things, wipe up any water, and put a bucket to catch 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, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Solved

We realise a clogged pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That’s why our team of emergency plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A obstructed pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, 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.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as possible.

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 drain 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 Issues

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Got a few of dishes to deal with? It’s difficult to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has fallen short, give us a call. We’ll be there quickly to figure out the issue and get it fixed. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can repair them and get your life back to normal.

Did you know around thiry percent of your household power bill is used on hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to items stored in the hot water cupboard. Don’t let hot water troubles harm your wallet, get them resolved promptly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If you find 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 the cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is aged and deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange for upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there’s a problem.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it resolved asap to prevent damage to your house, your furnishings and even your well-being.

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

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for various reasons. They might simply be old and dilapidated. Or they could have iced up in extremely frigid weather and split. Tree roots may have forced open underground connections. Or there might be a problem with how they were installed in the first place.

Once our on call plumber arrives, they will locate the problems and fix them in a quick and professional manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a problem tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

Many clients over the years have told us how irritating it is to have a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it’s resounding throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a serious problem.

It is not only vexing drips though. Leaks may push up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you need an entire new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional on call plumbers will quickly locate the trouble and remedy it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Howick plumbers. Not only can we sort out the leaking taps, we also offer a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not annoying enough to need repairing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to minimise the racket. Or tie a piece of twine around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
