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 there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our team a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important things from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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 Problems

We realise a clogged pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged drain is never a good thing. That is why our team of emergency plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged pipes can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your home quickly to resolve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through 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 Tank Problems

You generally do not think about how frequently you rely upon easy quick hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished in the garden and really want a wash? Time to finish up a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and discover it’s lukewarm.

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

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and can cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very rapidly.

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

If your old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our professional team can assist in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also tired, our plumbers can arrange an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

From the little fresh water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there’s an issue.

Once there is a problem though, it’s the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it fixed without delay to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your health.

Our emergency plumbers are set to be there right away, so contact us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe start leaking?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you reside in a cold climate, they might have frozen and cracked. They might simply be old and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots may force open underground pipes.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will diagnose the problem and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if advised to check for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Tapware Issues Sorted

Do you own a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

We have been called to a range of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a tiny drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at 2am when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a inconsequential annoyance, can suddenly become a serious plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound annoying, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your house, give us a ring.

Whether you need an entire replacement tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist after hours plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and remedy it. We even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Karaka emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to 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 frequently replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very reasonable price.
