FAQ Emergency 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 still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items from the area, and clean up any water or position a container to catch any 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves also.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We realise a blocked pipe can be a major problem. Whether it’s the kitchen sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked drain is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it by yourself using a plunger. But if you can not, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our urgent Howick plumbers will efficiently locate the problem 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 rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the problem to minimise further damage and return 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 blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

Had a hard day at work and desperately want a hot shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have a few dishes to deal with? It’s never opportune to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly realise that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. Our plumbers will be there promptly to figure out the problem and resolve it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life 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 create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed speedily, the cost will become more costly by the day.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is 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 isn’t able to be fixed, our reliable team can help in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can organise improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

From the little clean water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there is an issue.

Normally, we do not even recall them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s usually a serious problem that needs to be resolved immediately before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

As soon as a leak is identified, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are ready to answer night or day. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to reduce further flooding.

How did my pipe burst?

There are a variety reasons why pipes and taps can burst. If you live in a cold location, they may have iced up and ruptured. They may simply be aged and dilapidated. They might not have been installed properly in the first place. Tree roots can force open underground pipes.

Once they are at your home, our urgent plumber will identify the issue and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if advised to check for other damage.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether defective?

A lot of clients over the years have told us how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or broken faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it is resounding around your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a major problem.

It is not just frustrating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our urgent plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are fully stocked with parts and have a small choice of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we do not have the tap you want, we can install a temporary tap until we locate the style you need.

As well as serving Howick with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too extensive or little.

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

If it is not bad enough to need fixing right now, you can place a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Alternatively knot some string around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
