Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent 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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water tap to cut off all the water to your property.

Once you have stopped the leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, any hour of the day or night. We will be there quickly to resolve the problem.

While waiting, clear away any important things from the area, and wipe up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We know a blocked drain can be a major problem. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That’s why our team of urgent plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

A clogged pipe is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it with a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it is the bathroom sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our on call Karaka plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require available to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are concluded.

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 clogged drains ruin your day. Ring our on call Karaka emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Have a pile of of dishes to finish up? It is difficult to have a good clean when the water is not hot.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it sorted as fast as possible so your life can get back to normal.

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

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

If the cylinder isn’t fixable, our reliable plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, we can schedule upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

The pipes in your home are a generally hidden but vital part of your everyday activities. Big and small, under the ground, in the walls or the roof, they bring clean water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Usually, you don’t even think about their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s a major issue that must be resolved immediately before your house, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be with you rapidly. Our team are ready to answer day or night. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise yet more damage.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. The pipes might simply be old and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very wintery weather and burst. Tree roots might have grown into underground connections. Or there might be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

Our on call plumbers can identify and fix your broken pipes or leaks expeitiously and expertly.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a defective tap? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

Many our clientelle over the years have mentioned how annoying it is to live with a dripping or busted tap. You might not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is echoing around the house like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it’s a major issue.

As well as keeping the whole house awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even higher, or possibly cause damage to your residence, contact our on call plumber right away.

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

From urgent plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Karaka plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it is not aggravating enough to warrant repairing right now, you can put a folded cloth or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet aerator long enough to touch the bottom of the sink, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
