Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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.

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

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

While waiting, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you have 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.

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

Emergency Plumber Standing By

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Karaka same day plumbers understand that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing immediately. That’s why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

A blocked drain is a major problem, especially if it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will arrive at your abode speedily to resolve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need available to repair almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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 blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a freezing day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It is awkward to have a proper wash when the water is cold.

When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you want it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it fixed quickly so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and can cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very swiftly.

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 right away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our professional team can help in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our team can arrange improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

From the little clean water pipes in the walls and ceilings, to the big sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there is a problem.

Most of the time we do not even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly you’re looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed immediately, to prevent damage to your house, possessions and well-being.

Our emergency plumbers are prepared to get to you quickly, so ring our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can minimise further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and cracked. In a newer home, there might be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean joins might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if advised to look for other damage.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a broken faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a serious irritation. A little thing that might go unheard in the brouhaha of every day life without warning sounds like someone playing the bongos in the wee hours, disturbing your deams.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your house, call us now.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement tap, our same day plumbers have got what you need. All the vans are fully equipped with parts and carry a modest choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we do not have what you want, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we locate the style you desire.

From emergency plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or little for our Karaka plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also offer a broad range of other plumbing services.

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

Find a length of string of some type, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and dribble off quietly.
