FAQ - Urgent Plumbers

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 leaking, turn the water off at the nearest location and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that’s done, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to fix the leak.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant items, clean up any water, and place a bucket to catch drips. You also should 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Urgent Plumber Ready

Blocked Drains Solved

When your drains are overflowing, you need help asap. Our urgent Howick plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our 24 hour Howick plumbers will quickly identify the issue and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed 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 clogged pipe 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 Not Working

You often don’t realise how much you count upon easy quick hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a wash? Need to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s tepid.

When your hot water has fallen short, give our plumbers a call. We will be there promptly to diagnose the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your pocket very quickly.

If you discover 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 the hot water flowing again quickly. If there is 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 your cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can organise upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

The pipes in your home are a generally hidden but very important part of everyday life. Big and small, in the ground, within the walls or the roof or under the floor, they bring fresh water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.

Usually, we do not even think about them unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it is generally a major problem that must be sorted out immediately before the building, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

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

Why did the pipe start leaking?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you live in a extremely cold climate, the pipes might have frozen and burst. They may just be aged and dilapidated. The pipes may not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots can force open underground connections.

When our 24 hour plumber arrives, they will identify the issues and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.

Whether you want an entire new faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our professional 24 hour plumbers will quickly diagnose the problem and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it is not annoying enough to be worth fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot some twine around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
