Emergency 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 there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to fix the leak.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water as well.

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’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance fast. Our emergency Howick plumbers know how disheartening and damaging clogged drains can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

Clogged drains can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the obstruction completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary solution to tide you over 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 clogged pipes ruin your day. Ring our 24 hour Howick emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

You usually don’t realise how frequently we depend upon effortless quick hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really need a shower? Want to deal with some dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and find it’s lukewarm.

If the hot water isn’t hot enough, you want it to be remedied quickly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can quickly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can quickly push the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired promptly, the cost will become more expensive by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. 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 existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our helpful team can help in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can organise an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

From the small clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is an issue.

Most of the time we do not even think about them. Not until thre is a problem, and all of a sudden we are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are set to get to you quickly, so ring our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they may have frozen and ruptured. In a newer house, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

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

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tapware Issues Resolved

Do you have a defective faucet? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing a geyser impression?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping faucet can be a major annoyance. Something that can go unheard in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like someone practicing the drums at 2am, ruining your sleep.

It’s not only irritating drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the tap you need, we can install an interim faucet until we track down the style you need.

As well as providing Howick with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or minor.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can frequently replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very reasonable outlay.
