Emergency Plumbers: 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 isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains valve to stop all the water to the home.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any hour of the day or night. We will be there quickly to solve the problem.

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

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Karaka after hours plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing immediately. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.

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

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Regardless of whether there is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to tide you over 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 a obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately require a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have a few dishes to deal with? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is barely warm.

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

Did you know around 30% of your household power bill is used on hot water heating? A leak can suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a considerable amount of damage to your house and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water catastrophies hurt your wallet, get them fixed quickly.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, call our Karaka emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, requirements and area. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, we can arrange to do that in a timely manner as well.

Emergency Plumbers Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

From the small clean water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your house are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there’s a problem.

As soon as you find an issue though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your house, your belongings and even your health.

Our emergency plumbers are ready to get to you quickly, so call us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further damage by turning the water to the property off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. They may simply be old and worn out. Or they may have frozen in very wintery weather and burst. Tree roots could have invaded underground seals. Or there could be a problem with how they were installed to begin with.

When they are at your home, our after hours plumber will locate the problem and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if required to check for other issues.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tapware Issues Fixed

Do you own a troublesome faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a fountain?

We have been called to an assortment of tap problems over the years, and know that even a minor drip can sound like a woodpecker at night when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial niggle, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

It’s not only irritating drips though. Leaks can drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you require a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers can efficiently find the issue and resolve it. Our plumbers even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving Karaka with emergency plumbing of all kinds, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or little.

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

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can often replace worn out parts immediately for a very reasonable cost.
