FAQ: Urgent 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.

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

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We’ll be there as soon as we can to save the day.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start wiping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and clear away important things from the affected area. If the house 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.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

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

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

Whether it is the bathroom sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the yard, our after hours Howick plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to keep you going until we return.

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 clogged drains ruin your day. Call our after hours Howick emergency plumbers now!

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

From the small fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there is an issue.

Normally you never even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be resolved without delay, to minimise damage to your home, belongings and well-being.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so ring our team as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

How did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a new house, there may be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean junctions may have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will locate the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other damage.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a annoying faucet? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a major annoyance. A little thing that can go unheard in the hurly burly of every day life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, ruining your sleep.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you need an entire replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers can quickly find the trouble and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a small selection of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Howick urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of urgent and general plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of string of some type, and knot it onto the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and trickle off quietly.
