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.

If water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest service valve or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

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

While waiting, clear away any important things close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a bucket 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.

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

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Howick after hours plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing asap. That’s why we offer our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need someone there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.

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 obstructed pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

You generally do not think about how frequently we rely on effortless fast hot water until it is not available any longer. Just finished up in the garden and really want a shower? Need to deal with a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s lukewarm.

If the hot water is not hot enough, you need it working again speedily. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen it all and can quickly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet 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 emergency plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your old hot water cylinder is not repairable, our reliable team can assist in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, our team can schedule improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

Big or little, buried underground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your residence are a concealed but important part of everyday activities. They bring clean water to your house, and take used water and sewage away.

Normally we don’t even think of them. Not until thre is a problem, and suddenly we are looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out as soon as possible, to prevent damage to your residence, possessions and well-being.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers immediately. We are waiting to assist Howick residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to arrive, it may be useful to turn off the water to the home.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. They may simply be old and worn out. Or they could have iced up in extremely wintery weather and burst. Tree roots might have invaded underground joints. Or there could be an issue with how the pipes were set up to begin with.

When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will identify the problem and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if required to check for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply defective?

We’ve seen all sorts of tap issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant aggravation, can suddenly become a drastic plumbing emergency.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, 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.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our after hours plumbers have got what you require. All the vans are well equipped with parts and carry a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we do not have the faucet you require, we can put in a temporary faucet until we track down the style you need.

As well as providing Howick with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too great or little.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can usually replace worn out parts right then and there for a very reasonable outlay.
