Common plumbing jobs
Plumbing jobs on Knut include leak repairs, toilet repairs and tap replacement. You can also request help with a blocked drain, hot water or emergency plumbing. If you’re unsure how to describe the issue, explain what you’ve noticed and where it is; a photo can help show the problem. For example, mention whether a leak is under a sink or whether a toilet is not working properly. Knut sends your request to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service. If there is immediate danger to life or property, such as a gas leak, fire, electrical hazard or flooding, call 000 or the relevant emergency service first.
How to brief your plumbing job
Give a clear description of what needs doing, where the problem is and when you want the work done. Include useful details such as what is leaking, which tap needs replacing, or what is happening with the toilet or hot water. Photos can be useful if they help explain the issue. If the job is for a rental, managed property or facility, say so and provide the relevant property details. Knut sends your description to suitable tradies, so a specific brief can help them understand the work and prepare a quote. You can message the tradie and follow progress in one place after booking through Knut.
Costs and Knut’s booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. If you book through Knut, you pay Knut one booking fee: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie’s quoted price for the work. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Review the quoted work and price before you book so you can decide whether it suits your needs.
Choosing and checking a plumbing tradie
Plumbing involves licensed work, so Knut only matches customers with tradies whose licence has been verified. Read the quotes you receive and compare what each covers against the job you described. If something is unclear, ask the tradie for clarification before booking. Knut recommends the quote that best fits the job on merit, but you make the booking decision. Once booked, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to organise maintenance across many properties.
