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.

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

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

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any significant 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, switch off the heating for the hot water 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

We realise a obstructed drain can be a major emergency. Whether it’s the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of urgent plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the drains cleared.

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

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the blockage completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.

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 blocked pipes ruin your day. Ring our 24 hour Karaka emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

We generally do not think about how heavily we count upon effortless quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Time to take care of a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and discover it’s barely warm.

When your hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it hot again quickly so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very quickly.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Karaka urgent plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable option for your budget, requirements and location. If the whole hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a opportune fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

The pipes in your home are a generally hidden but vital part of daily life. Large and small, under the ground, within the walls or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Normally we do not even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your house, possessions and well-being.

The moment a leak is found, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are waiting to take your call day or night. Before they arrive, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to prevent yet more leaking.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older residence, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and split. In a new residence, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean pipes might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if advised to check for other damage.

All Taps Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a defective faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

We’ve been called to a range of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at night when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a insignificant annoyance, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, 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 potentially cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.

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

As well as serving Karaka with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or too small.

How can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some rest?

If it is not annoying enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can try putting a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to dampen the noise. Or knot a piece of string around the faucet spout sufficient to touch the base of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
