Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

24 Hour 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 water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you cannot locate the water main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. We will be there promptly to solve the problem.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, place a bucket to catch any drips, and remove valuable things from the affected area. If the mains water is turned off, 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our The Patch after hours plumbers know that a clogged pipe can be a serious health risk that needs fixing immediately. That is why we provide our 24 hour plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a professional there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our after hours The Patch plumbers will efficiently identify the issue and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require available to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.

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 ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Need to put mucky kids in the shower? Need a good soak to defrost after a freezing day? Got a pile of of dishes to finish up? It is difficult to have a proper wash when the water is not hot.

When the hot water is not up to standard, you need it hot again fast. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly identify the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very swiftly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our The Patch 24 hour plumbers immediately. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick a suitable solution for your budget, needs and area. If your whole hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.

24 Hour Plumber Ready

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

Large and little, hidden in the ground or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your residence are a concealed but key part of daily activities. They carry clean water to your home, and remove unclean water and sewage out.

Normally we don’t even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly we are looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired immediately, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and well-being.

Our 24 hour plumbers are set to be on the scene quickly, so call us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a variety of reasons. They might simply be old and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in extremely wintery weather and burst. Tree roots could have invaded subterranean joints. Or there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

When our after hours plumber arrives, they can isolate the problems and fix them in a expeitious and professional manner.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a irksome tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just outright defective?

Many our clientelle over the years have told us how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or busted tap. You might not even hear the drip during the daytime, but in the wee hours when it’s resounding throughout the house like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it is a sigificant issue.

It is not just aggravating drips though. Leaks can push up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you require a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers can quickly locate the problem and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to pick from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our The Patch 24 hour plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a wide range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?

Find a piece of string of some kind, and tie it around the tap spout so that it drapes down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
