Frequently Asked Questions - Important

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 off the water at the nearest access point and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be there as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any important items, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch any drips. You should also turn 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Urgent Plumber Standing By

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Howick 24 hour plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing asap. That’s why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether there is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to minimise further damage and return with what is required 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 a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

Had a hard day at work and badly require a nice warm shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Have some dishes to deal with? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is tepid.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it working again fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it remedied as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Hot water leaks can quickly push your power 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 promptly, it will become more expensive by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Howick urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your existing hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our helpful plumbers can help in finding the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can arrange improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

The pipes in your home are a largely hidden but vital part of everyday activities. Big or small, under the ground, in the walls or the ceiling, they bring fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Most of the time we never even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out asap, to minimise damage to your residence, furnishings and health.

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

How did the pipe burst?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a extremely cold location, the pipes may have frozen and cracked. They may just be old and worn out. The pipes may not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots can invade underground seals.

When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will locate the problem and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipes if advised to look for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a irksome tap? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up busted?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious annoyance. Something that can go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing at 2am, ruining your shuteye.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your house, give us a ring.

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

From large to small, our Howick urgent plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a wide range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

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 underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot a piece of twine around the tap spout long enough to touch the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
