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.

If water is still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest service valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

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

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important things, wipe up any water, and place a bucket to catch drips. You should also turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 valves as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your drains are overflowing, you want help quickly. Our urgent Karaka plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Obestructed drains can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our emergency Karaka plumbers will efficiently identify the problem and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

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

Don’t let blocked pipes ruin your day. Call our emergency Karaka emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Not Working

We often do not think about how much we depend on effortless quick hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished up in the garden and really need a wash? Time to finish off a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s cold.

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

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the average household’s power 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 as soon as you can. We’ll get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can schedule to do those repairs in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

From the small fresh water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there is an issue.

As soon as you find a problem though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it resolved asap to prevent damage to your home, your belongings and even your health.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers right away. We are waiting to help Karaka residents right now. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the property.

Why did my pipe fail?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you live in a cold region, they may have frozen and cracked. They may simply be old and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots may invade underground junctions.

Our emergency plumbers will diagnose and repair the damaged pipes or leaks expeitiously and cleanly.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tapware Problems Sorted

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how aggravating it is to have a dripping or broken tap. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it’s resounding around your home like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a serious issue.

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

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole replacement tap, our emergency plumbers have got what you need. All the vans are well equipped with parts and carry a modest choice of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we do not have the tap you want, we can put in an interim faucet until we track down what you need.

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

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

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of tap, we can usually replace worn out parts on the spot for a very modest price.
