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 there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your home. If you’re unable to find the main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start mopping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important possessions from the area. If the mains 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Howick urgent plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a major health hazard that needs attending to as soon as possible. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our urgent Howick plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is required as soon as we can.

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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Problems

We often don’t realise how heavily you count on easy fast hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a wash? Time to finish off a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s barely warm.

When the hot water isn’t up to standard, you need it to be hot again speedily. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can rapidly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired speedily, the cost will become more expensive by the day.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Howick emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly team can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our team can arrange improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

From the small clean water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even remember them until there is an issue.

Most of the time you never even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out without delay, to minimise damage to your home, furnishings and well-being.

As soon as you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers immediately. Our team are waiting to assist Howick residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it may help to turn off the water to the home.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can break down for a range of reasons. They may simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very cold weather and burst. Tree roots might have forced open subterranean joints. Or there may be a problem with how they were set up to begin with.

When the urgent plumber arrives, they can isolate the issues and fix them in a rapid and professional manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a annoying tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

Many customers over the years have told us how aggravating it can be to live with a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s reverberating throughout the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a sigificant problem.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire new tap, our urgent plumbers have got what you need. All the vans are fully equipped with parts and have a modest selection of new taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have what you need, we can install an interim faucet until we find what you desire.

As well as providing Howick with emergency plumbing of all types, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too extensive or minor.

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

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of tap, we can often replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very reasonable expenditure.
