Urgent Plumbers 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 water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be at your place as soon as possible to save the day.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any important items, mop up any water, and position a container to catch drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Howick emergency plumbers understand that a obstructed pipe can be a major health hazard that needs fixing as soon as possible. That is why we provide our urgent plumbing service.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the laundry sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our emergency Howick plumbers will quickly identify the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require available to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.

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

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Issues

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up following a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is difficult to have a good clean when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. We’ll be there quickly to identify the issue and find a solution. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them 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 home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the average home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very swiftly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Howick urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If you find 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 new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, requirements and area. If the entire hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can schedule to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

The pipes in your home are a generally hidden but very important part of your everyday life. Large and small, in the earth, within the walls or the roof or under the floor, they carry clean water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Once there is a problem though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you need it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your contents and even your well-being.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to help Howick residents right now. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the property.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for a range of reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very wintery weather and cracked. Tree roots could have forced open subterranean connections. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were set up to begin with.

When our emergency plumber is present, they will identify the problems and repair them in a expeitious and expert manner.

All Taps Handled

Tapware Issues Fixed

Do you own a busted tap? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?

Many customers over the years have told us how aggravating it can be to live with a dripping or broken tap. You might not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s resounding around your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a serious issue.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you require an entire replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our expert emergency plumbers will quickly find the trouble and resolve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

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

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

Find a piece of string of some kind, and tie it around the faucet aerator so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
