Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent Plumbers - 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.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest location and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is done, give our plumber a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you rapidly to get things sorted.

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

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

Blocked Drains Solved

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help straight away. Our urgent Howick plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Obestructed drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your abode rapidly to solve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need available to fix almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that requires other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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.

Do not let a obstructed drain get you down. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

You often do not realise how much you count on easy fast hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished in the garden and really want a shower? Time to finish up a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

When the hot water is not hot enough, you want it fixed as fast as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Did you know around 30% of the average household electricity bill powers the hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your residence and to items stored nearby. Don’t let hot water troubles damage your pocket, get them repaired fast.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Howick urgent plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best option for your budget, needs and location. If your whole hot water system requires upgrading, we can organise to do those repairs in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

The pipes in your house are a generally hidden but significant part of your daily life. Big and little, underground, in the walls or the roof, they carry fresh water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Often, you do not even remember their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is generally a major problem that must be resolved immediately before the building, your belongings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

When you locate a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers immediately. We are waiting to assist Howick residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to get there, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they may simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they may have frozen and ruptured. In a newer residence, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will diagnose the problem and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipework if required to look for other problems.

All Tapware Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how irritating it can be to have a dripping or defective tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it’s reverberating throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a serious issue.

It is not only annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, 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 simply need a washer, or a whole new tap, our on call plumbers have got what you require. All our vehicles are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if desired. If we do not have the tap you need, we can put in an interim faucet until we locate the style you need.

From urgent plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Howick plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, the team also provide a broad selection of other plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If it is not bad enough to warrant fixing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Alternatively knot some string around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the bottom of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
