Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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.

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

Once that is sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and put a container to catch any drips. You also should switch 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.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Solved

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance right now. Our urgent Karaka Harbourside plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Clogged drains can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and some know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes unclogged.

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

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the blockage completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to keep you going until we 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 a blocked drain get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

Had a hard day at work and desperately need a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids in the tub? Got a sink-full of dishes to finish off? It’s never handy to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden discover that the water is barely warm.

When your hot water has let you down, give our plumbers a call. We’ll be there quickly to identify the issue and resolve it. From heating elements to defective thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

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

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Karaka Harbourside urgent plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing 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 old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our friendly team can help in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, we can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Promptly

Big or small, buried in the earth or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a concealed but integral part of your daily activities. They carry fresh water to your home, and take unclean water and sewage away.

Most of the time you do not even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired asap, to prevent damage to your home, furnishings and well-being.

Our urgent plumbers are set to be there right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

How did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. They might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they could have frozen in extremely cold weather and burst. Tree roots may have forced open underground pipes. Or there might be an issue with how the pipes were set up to begin with.

When they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the issue and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if required to look for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Tap Problems Resolved

Do you have a problematic faucet? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up defective?

Many customers over the years have mentioned how aggravating it can be to live with a dripping or broken faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but at 3am when it is reverberating throughout your home like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a major issue.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your home, give us a ring.

Whether you just want a washer, or a whole new tap, our on call plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are well equipped with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have the faucet you require, our plumber can put in an interim tap until we find the style you want.

As well as serving Karaka Harbourside with urgent plumbing of all types, we are available for general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too large or little.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

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