Common plumbing jobs
Plumbing jobs can range from a dripping tap to a problem that needs urgent attention. Knut can connect you with tradies for leak repairs, toilet repairs, tap replacement, blocked drains and hot water work. Emergency plumbing is also listed as a service. If you are unsure what the fault is, describe what you have noticed rather than trying to diagnose it. For example, explain where water is appearing, whether a toilet is not working properly, or what is happening with the hot water. A clear description helps tradies understand the work you are requesting.
How to brief a plumbing job
When you make a request, include what needs doing, the job location in North and when you want the work done. Add useful details such as where a leak or blockage is occurring and what you have already noticed about the problem. Photos can help show the issue if they are safe and practical to take. You only need to describe the job once. Knut sends it to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service. They provide quotes for the work, which Knut compares and uses to recommend the option that best fits the job on merit.
Costs and Knut’s booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. Customers pay Knut one booking fee when they book: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. The tradie's quoted price for the work is paid separately from Knut's booking fee. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Before booking, check the quote so you understand what work it covers. When you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Plumbing involves licensed work, so Knut only matches customers with tradies whose licence has been verified. You can compare the quotes Knut receives and consider which one best fits the job, on merit. Read each quote carefully and check that it describes the work you asked about. If something is unclear, ask the tradie through Knut before booking. The quoted price is for the work; Knut’s booking fee is paid separately when you book. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to organise maintenance across many properties.
Knut's booking fee
Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
