Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours 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 there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water valve for your home. If you are unable to locate the tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the home to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be there rapidly to fix the leak.

While waiting, remove any important things close to the leak, and wipe up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you 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

When your drains are overflowing, you want help asap. Our after hours Karaka plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging blocked pipes can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

Clogged pipes can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unblocked.

Whether it is the kitchen sink that will not empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our 24 hour Karaka plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that our plumbers can’t get the obstruction completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, we will find a temporary 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.

Do not let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it is not working properly. Need to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a freezing day? Got a few of dishes to finish up? It’s a pain to have a good clean when the water is not hot.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you need it remedied quickly. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly identify the problem and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can quickly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted fast, the cost will become more costly by the day.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Karaka after hours plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 cylinder is not able to be fixed, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is aged and deteriorating, we can schedule improvements at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

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

Once there is an issue though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you want it fixed asap to prevent damage to your residence, your contents and even your health.

Our after hours plumbers are prepared to get to you quickly, so call us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have frozen and cracked. In a recently built house, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the problem and promptly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipework if needed to check for other issues.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Tap Leaks Fixed

Do you own a troublesome tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just broken?

Many our clientelle over the years have mentioned how frustrating it is to have a dripping or busted tap. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it is resounding around the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it’s a major problem.

It’s not only aggravating drips though. Leaks may 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 small tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new tap, our 24 hour plumbers have got what you need. All the vans are fully stocked with parts and have a small selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if required. If we do not have what you need, we can put in a temporary faucet until we track down what you want.

As well as serving Karaka with after hours plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too great or minor.

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

If it’s not annoying enough to warrant repairing right now, you can try putting a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to diminish the racket. Or tie a length of twine around the tap aerator long enough to rest on the bottom of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
