Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent 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 isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to cut off all water to the home.

Once that’s sorted, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant things from the area, and wipe up any water or position a bucket to catch any drips. If you have 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Issues

We know a clogged drain can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Howick plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to tide you over 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 obstructed pipes ruin your day. Call our 24 hour Howick emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Problems

We regularly do not think about how heavily we count upon effortless fast hot water until it is not there anymore. Just finished in the garage and really want a wash? Want to finish off a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s lukewarm.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it sorted promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it hot again as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can quickly send your 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 asap, it will become more expensive by the hour.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not fixable, our helpful team can assist in finding the best options for your budget, household needs 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.

Urgent Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes in the garden, the majority of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is an issue.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it resolved asap to prevent damage to your house, your belongings and even your well-being.

Our urgent plumbers are ready to get to you right away, so call us as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if required.

How did the pipe burst?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you reside in a cold climate, they may have frozen and ruptured. They could just be old and worn out. They may not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots can invade subterranean joins.

When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the problem and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other issues.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you have a defective faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

We have seen an assortment of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at night when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor niggle, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise more, or possibly cause damage to your residence, get hold of our 24 hour plumber straight away.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and have a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have the faucet you require, our plumber can put in a temporary tap until we locate what you need.

As well as serving Howick with urgent plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too extensive or too small.

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

If it’s not aggravating enough to need repairing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the noise. Or tie some string around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
