FAQ: Emergency 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 there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate the tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

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

In the meantime, start wiping up any water, put a bucket to catch any drips, and remove important things from the area. If the house 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.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Blocked Drains Fixed

We understand a clogged drain can be a major problem. Whether it’s the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our crew of emergency plumbers are ready to solve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there rapidly to get the drains unclogged.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your home rapidly to resolve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed 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 clogged drains ruin your day. Call our same day The Patch emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

You tend to don’t think about how heavily we rely upon easy fast hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished up in the garage and really want a shower? Want to finish up some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s tepid.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it to be working again as fast as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen it all and can rapidly identify the problem and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can swiftly put your power bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired promptly, the cost will become more expensive by the hour.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our The Patch emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 the existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best soutions for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also deteriorating, we can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it repaired asap to prevent damage to your house, your belongings and even your well-being.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our emergency plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist The Patch residents right away. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can fail and start to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be aged and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a new house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections could have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our same day plumbers will diagnose and repair your burst pipes or leaks expeitiously and efficiently.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

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

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a significant vexation. Something that might go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the wee hours, ruining your deams.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your house, call us now.

Whether you want a whole replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist same day plumbers will efficiently find the cause and remedy it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our The Patch emergency plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of urgent and general plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

Normally, a dripping tap is caused by a worn out or defective washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of faucet, we can often replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very modest outlay.
