FAQ - Urgent 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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff valve to stop all water to the home.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We’ll be at your place as soon as possible to save the day.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any significant items close to the leak, and mop up any water or place a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.

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.

It is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our The Patch on call plumbers know that a clogged drain can be a serious health risk that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our urgent plumbing service.

Blocked drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing once more.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have all we need on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are finished.

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 pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Not Working

It’s been a hard day at work and badly require a refreshing shower? Time to put the children into the bath? Got a few dishes to finish off? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is cold.

When the hot water is not hot enough, you want it to be sorted promptly. 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 the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it sorted fast, the cost can become more costly by the hour.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, ring our The Patch urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get the hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder isn’t repairable, our professional plumbers can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is old and worn out, we can organise repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Fast

The pipes in your home are a largely unseen but significant part of your daily life. Large or little, underground, within the walls or the roof, they carry clean water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.

Once there is a problem though, it is the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you need it resolved without delay to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your well-being.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers without delay. Our team are waiting to assist The Patch residents right now. Whilst waiting for our plumber to arrive, it may help to turn off the water to the property.

How did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they may simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and cracked. In a recently built home, there could be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean connections could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the on call plumber arrives, they can isolate the issues and repair them in a quick and expert manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a problem tap? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a fountain?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant annoyance. Something that may go unnoticed in the hubbub of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, destroying your shuteye.

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot tap. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your house, call our team now.

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

From urgent plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our The Patch plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, the team also provide a wide range of additional plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I stop them temporarily to get some sleep?

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