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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have taps that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to cut off all water to your house.

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

While you wait, begin mopping up any water, position a container to catch any drips, and remove significant items from the area. If the mains water is turned off, then 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

We understand a clogged pipe can be a serious problem. Whether it is the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is never a good thing. That is why our team of urgent plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

A clogged drain is a major predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our emergency Howick plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and get back 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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

We often don’t think about how frequently we count on easy fast hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really need a wash? Want to finish up a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s barely warm.

When the hot water is not hot enough, you need it hot again as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very swiftly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick urgent plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot 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 help pick the best option for your budget, requirements and area. If the entire hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can organise to do that in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

From the small fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We do not even remember them until there’s an issue.

Often, people don’t even think about their existence until something goes wrong. But when it does, it’s a major problem that must be resolved urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe burst?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you reside in a cold climate, the pipes may have frozen and cracked. They could simply be old and worn out. They may not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots can grow into subterranean joins.

Once our emergency plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and fix them in a expeitious and professional manner.

All Taps Handled

Tap Problems Fixed

Do you live with a problematic faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

We’ve been called to a range of faucet problems over the years, and we understand that even a minor drip can sound like a woodpecker in the wee hours when you’re trying to sleep. What was a minor annoyance, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our emergency plumbers have got what you require. All our vehicles are fully equipped with parts and carry a small selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we don’t have the faucet you want, our plumber can install an interim tap until we locate what you need.

As well as providing Howick with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too large or little.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it onto the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and dribble off quietly.
