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.

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

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

While you wait, begin cleaning up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and remove important possessions from the affected area. If the mains 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

We realise a blocked pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Obestructed drains can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unclogged.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your home speedily to solve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

In the rare case that we can not get the clog completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim 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 clogged drain send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it is not functioning correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up after a long cold day? Got some of dishes to finish off? It’s hard to have a proper clean up when the water is cold.

When the hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. We’ll be there quickly to identify the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your pocket very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick emergency plumbers straight away. We will get your 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and area. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can schedule to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Our 24 hour plumbers can identify and fix your broken pipes or leaks expeitiously and professionally.

Tap Issues Fixed

Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?
