FAQ: Urgent Plumber

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 there is water still leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

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

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant possessions close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, also switch off the hot water heating 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.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Howick emergency plumbers realise that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our urgent plumbing service.

A clogged pipe is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can fix it by yourself with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it is the ensuite sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our emergency Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers come back.

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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it is not functioning properly. Time to put grubby kids in the bath? Need a good soak to defrost after a long cold day? Got a few of dishes to take care of? It’s awkward to have a good clean up when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not hot enough, you want it to be sorted as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Did you know around thiry percent of the average household power bill goes to hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your residence and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water woes harm your wallet, get them fixed as soon as possible.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick urgent plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not repairable, our professional team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, we can arrange for upgrades at a time that suits you as well.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a troublesome tap? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

Many clients over the years have told us how vexing it is to have a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s reverberating around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a sigificant problem.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it is the hot water. Do not let the bills increase even higher, or maybe even cause damage to your house, get hold of our emergency plumber straight away.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to stop your leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From urgent plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too big or little for our Howick plumbers. Not only can we fix the leaking taps, the team also provide a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

Find a length of string of some type, and knot it onto the tap spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and flow off quietly.
