Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ Emergency 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to cut off all the water to your home.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, any time of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to solve the issue.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a container to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, 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’s also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Solved

We understand a obstructed pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our team of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when 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 arrive quickly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our same day Howick plumbers will quickly locate the problem and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 clogged pipes ruin your day. Call our same day Howick emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

We usually don’t think about how frequently we count on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Need to finish off a pile of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s lukewarm.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you want it to be hot again as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very rapidly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get your 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 the cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our friendly team can help pick the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

The pipes in your home are a normally hidden but very important part of daily activities. Large and little, subterranean, within the wall or the roof, they carry clean water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Often, we never even remember their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is generally a major problem that must be sorted urgently before your home, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers without delay. We are waiting to assist Howick residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the house.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they might have iced up and burst. In a newer home, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Underground pipes may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other problems.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Issues Resolved

Do you have a problematic tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up broken?

We have been called to an assortment of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like elephants tapdancing in the small hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a trivial annoyance, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks may push 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 little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need on hand to fix your leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Howick emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a piece of string of some type, and knot it onto the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
