Common plumbing jobs
Plumbing work can range from a small repair to an urgent problem. Common jobs include fixing a leak, repairing a toilet, replacing a tap, clearing a blocked drain and addressing a hot water issue. Emergency plumbing is also among the services available through Knut. When describing the problem, explain what is happening and where you have noticed it. For example, say whether a leak is under a sink or whether a toilet is not working properly. Clear details help suitable tradies understand what you need and prepare a relevant quote. If there is immediate danger to life or property, contact emergency services first.
How to brief a plumbing job
Describe what needs doing, where the work is, and when you need it done. Include useful details such as which tap, toilet or drain is affected, what you have observed, and whether the issue is ongoing or intermittent. Photos can help explain the problem when they are useful. You only need to describe the job once through Knut; it is then sent to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service. A clear brief helps tradies assess the request and provide quotes that can be compared against the work you have described.
Costs and Knut's booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes through Knut. When you book, 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. Check the quote and the booking fee before booking so you understand the amounts involved.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Compare the quotes you receive against the job you described, including the work each quote covers. Knut recommends the quote that best fits the job on merit, but you can consider the details before booking. Plumbing involves licensed work, so Knut only matches customers with tradies whose licence has been verified. Once you book through Knut, 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. Knut connects you with independent tradies; it does not carry out the plumbing work itself.
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.
