Frequently Asked Questions - Important

On Call Plumbers 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a tap below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating tap to cut off all the water to the residence.

Once that is sorted, give our team a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin mopping up any water, place a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important items from the affected area. If the property 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 behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you want help fast. Our on call The Patch plumbers understand how disheartening and damaging clogged drains can be, and we are ready to get them flowing again.

Obestructed drains can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it on your own with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive quickly to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that won’t empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our same day The Patch plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can not get the clog completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to get you through until our plumbers come back.

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!

How did my pipe start leaking?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps may burst. If you reside in a cold location, the pipes may have iced up and cracked. They could simply be old and dilapidated. They may not have been properly installed to begin with. Tree roots may invade subterranean pipes.

Once they are at your home, our same day plumber will diagnose the issue and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipes if advised to check for other problems.

Tapware Issues Sorted

Do you own a troublesome tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can send the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need on hand to fix that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

From on call plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too large or minor for our The Patch plumbers. Not only can we sort out your leaking taps, we can also offer a wide selection of other plumbing services.
