Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ After Hours Plumber

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 service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your property. If you are unable to locate the tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant items, wipe up any water, and position a bucket to catch any drips. You should also switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 Problems

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance as soon as possible. Our after hours The Patch plumbers know how disheartening and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them unobstructed again.

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

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not clear, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our same day The Patch plumbers will quickly locate the problem and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.

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 obstructed drain ruin your day. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working properly. Time to put mucky kids in the shower? Deperately need a good soak to defrost after a wintery day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It’s difficult to have a proper wash up when the water is cold.

When the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you want it repaired promptly. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can quickly identify the problem and get it fixed.

Did you know about 30% of your home power bill is used on hot water heating? A leak may suddenly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks may also cause a lot of damage to your home and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water woes damage your pocket, get them resolved asap.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our The Patch after hours plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder isn’t fixable, our friendly team can help in finding the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our plumbers can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

After Hours Plumber Standing By

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

Big or small, buried in the garden or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the various pipes in your house are a unseen but significant part of everyday activities. They carry clean water to your home, and remove dirty water and sewage out.

Normally we never even think about them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you’re looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed immediately, to prevent damage to your home, furnishings and health.

The moment a leak is found, give us a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are waiting to take your call night or day. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to prevent further flooding.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for a variety of reasons. The pipes might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have iced up in extremely cold weather and split. Tree roots may have forced open subterranean joints. Or there could be an issue with how the pipes were set up in the first place.

Once they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipework if needed to check for other damage.

All Tapware Handled

Taps Not Working?

Do you own a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?

A lot of clients over the years have told us how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even hear the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is reverberating around your home like someone practicing the drums, all of a sudden it’s a major problem.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your residence, call us now.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need in the vans to remedy that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

From big to small, our The Patch after hours plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it around the faucet aerator so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and flow off quietly.
