Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

After Hours 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff tap to stop all water to your property.

Once that is sorted, give us a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to get things sorted.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and remove important possessions from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Howick urgent plumbers realise that a obstructed drain can be a major health hazard that needs attending to right away. That’s why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

A blocked pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your home speedily to solve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over 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.

Don’t let a clogged drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Need a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Have some of dishes to finish up? It’s difficult to have a good wash when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it repaired promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it fixed fast so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause major damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of your household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very rapidly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Howick after hours plumbers right away. We’ll get the hot water working again promptly. If there is 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 the cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and location. If your whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

From the little clean water pipes in the walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there is an issue.

Ususally you barely even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly we’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.

When you locate a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our after hours plumbers immediately. We are waiting to help Howick residents right away. Whilst waiting for our plumber to get there, it could be useful to turn off the water to the home.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and cracked. In a recently built residence, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Underground junctions could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our urgent plumber is present, they will identify the issues and fix them in a speedy and expert manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a annoying faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just broken?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it is echoing throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a serious problem.

It isn’t just irritating drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s 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 putting a huge dent in your wallet.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to remedy that leak. Our plumbers carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Howick with after hours plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too extensive or too small.

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

If the drip is not annoying enough to need fixing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the sound. Or knot a length of string around the tap aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
