Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ: Urgent Plumber

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 and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the water main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all 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 will be at your home as soon as we can to save the day.

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important possessions close to the leak, and clean up any water or place a bucket to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We understand a clogged drain can be a major problem. Whether it is the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a good thing. That’s why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

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

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will arrive at your home quickly to solve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the issue to prevent further damage and get back with what is needed 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 Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Problems

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up following a long cold day? Have a pile of of dishes to deal with? It’s a pain to have a proper wash up when the water is lukewarm.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a call. We’ll be there quickly to figure out the problem and resolve it. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around 30% of your household’s power bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very rapidly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Howick urgent plumbers straight away. 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 switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our helpful team can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, we can arrange an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

Large and small, hidden in the garden or in the floor, walls or roof, the various pipes in your home are a unseen but key part of everyday life. They bring fresh water to your house, and take dirty water and sewage away.

Normally, you never even recall their existence until something goes wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is generally a significant problem that must be fixed urgently before your house, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers asap. We are waiting to assist Howick residents right now. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the property.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can break down for various reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very wintery weather and split. Tree roots might have grown into underground seals. Or there may be an issue with how they were set up to begin with.

Once they are at your home, our after hours plumber will diagnose the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if required to check for other damage.

Tap Problems Sorted

Do you have a troublesome faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

We have been called to all sorts of tap issues over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at 2am when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a insignificant irritant, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

It is not only vexing drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s 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.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to fix that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a new one, or can install a temporary one if needed.

From large to small, our Howick urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a wide selection of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

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