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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to cut off all water to the property.

Once that’s done, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start mopping up any water, put a container to catch drips, and clear away valuable possessions from the affected 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.

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Howick same day plumbers understand that a blocked drain can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That is why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

A clogged pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your home speedily to resolve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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 obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately want a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have a sink-full of dishes to deal with? It’s never convenient to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is tepid.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it working again promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it fixed as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very rapidly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call 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 the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, we can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

Big or little, buried in the ground or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a unseen but vital part of your daily life. They carry clean water to your home, and transfer dirty water and sewage away.

As soon as you find a problem though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your house, your belongings and even your well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so contact us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older residence, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and burst. In a new residence, there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean pipes might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our same day plumbers can diagnose and fix the damaged pipes or leaks promptly and expertly.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a irksome faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain busted?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant irritation. A little thing that may go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the wee hours, ruining your sleep.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our same day plumbers have got what you require. All the vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a modest selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we don’t have the faucet you require, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we track down what you desire.

From large to small, our Howick emergency plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and general plumbing services.

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

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can usually replace worn out parts on the spot for a very reasonable outlay.
