Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent Plumber FAQ

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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water tap to cut off all water to your house.

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

In the meantime, begin mopping up any water, put a container to catch drips, and remove valuable possessions from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help asap. Our urgent Howick plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging clogged pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Obestructed drains can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the pipes unblocked.

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

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require available to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.

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 pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

We generally do not think about how frequently you depend on effortless quick hot water until it isn’t there any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really need a wash? Time to take care of a pile of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s barely warm.

When the hot water has let you down, give us a ring. Our team will be there promptly to identify the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the average home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick urgent plumbers right away. We will 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 the old hot water cylinder is not repairable, our helpful plumbers can help in finding the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our team can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

From the small clean water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You do not even think of them until there’s an issue.

Ususally you never even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired without delay, to prevent damage to your home, possessions and health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be with you rapidly. We’re ready to answer day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to prevent further flooding.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they may simply be old and dilapidated. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have iced up and ruptured. In a recently built home, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean pipes could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our emergency plumbers can diagnose and fix the damaged pipes or leaks quickly and cleanly.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a troublesome tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

Many our clientelle over the years have mentioned how vexing it can be to have a dripping or busted tap. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it is resounding throughout the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a serious problem.

It isn’t just annoying drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. Not only that, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire new faucet, our emergency plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are fully stocked with parts and carry a small choice of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have what you need, our plumber can install a temporary faucet until we find the style you want.

As well as serving Howick with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too great or small.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of tap, we can usually replace worn out parts on the spot for a very acceptable outlay.
