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 leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main shutoff valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin cleaning up any water, position a container to catch drips, and clear away significant items 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’s also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you need help asap. Our urgent Howick plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging clogged pipes can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the laundry sink that will not drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our after hours Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.

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 obstructed pipes ruin your day. Ring our after hours Howick emergency plumbing team now!
