Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ: After Hours Plumbers

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 location and then at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the water main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there shortly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You also should 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Fixed

We know a obstructed pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our crew of after hours plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

A obstructed pipe is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it yourself with a plunger. But if you can not, you need assistance rapidly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your abode speedily to solve the issue. Our highly trained plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

In the rare case that we can not get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find an interim solution to get you through until our plumbers return.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

You generally don’t think about how frequently we rely on easy fast hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really want a wash? Need to take care of a few dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s tepid.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it fixed fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you want it remedied fast so you can get back to normal life.

Did you know about 30% of the average home electricity bill is used for hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your home and to things stored nearby. Don’t let hot water woes empty your wallet, get them fixed fast.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our The Patch after hours plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly.

Burst Pipes Solved In No Time

From the little fresh water pipes in the floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there is an issue.

As soon as you find a problem though, it is the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it fixed as soon as possible to prevent damage to your house, your belongings and even your health.

Our after hours plumbers are ready to be there right away, so contact us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

How did the pipe fail?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps may break down. If you live in a very cold region, the pipes may have iced up and ruptured. They may just be old and dilapidated. They might not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots may invade underground pipes.

Once our emergency plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

All Taps Covered

Tap Leaks Sorted

Do you have a irksome tap? A faucet that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just busted?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping tap can be a significant annoyance. A little thing that can go unheard in the hubbub of every day life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer in the middle of the night, disturbing your sleep.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up the 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 negligible tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply want a washer, or an entire new tap, our emergency plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are well stocked with parts and have a small choice of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the faucet you need, our plumber can install an interim faucet until we track down what you desire.

From big to small, our The Patch after hours plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we offer a broad selection of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a length of twine of some kind, and knot it around the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
