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.

Many appliances and fixtures have service valves that can be turned 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 shutoff valve to cut off all water to your residence.

Once you have stopped the problem from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a ring, at any time of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, clear away any important things, wipe up any water, and place a bucket to catch any drips. You also should turn 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 bowl.

Blocked Drains Solved

We realise a blocked drain can be a major emergency. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is never a good thing. That’s why our crew of after hours plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your abode quickly to solve 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 will temporarily solve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 obstructed pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

You regularly don’t realise how much you count on effortless quick hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Time to deal with a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s cold.

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

Hot water leaks can rapidly push the power bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed fast, it can become more expensive by the day.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our The Patch after hours plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our friendly team can assist in picking the best solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is tired and deteriorating, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your residence are hidden away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even remember them until there’s 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 serious stuff, and you want it repaired without delay to prevent damage to your home, your furnishings and even your well-being.

Our after hours plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so call our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any type. You can minimise further flooding by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework may have iced up and burst. In a newer house, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground junctions could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our on call plumber will locate the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if advised to look for other issues.

All Taps Handled

Tapware Problems Fixed

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

Many clients over the years have told us how irritating it can be to have a dripping or broken tap. You might not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is echoing throughout your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a major problem.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you need an entire new faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our specialist on call plumbers can efficiently identify the issue and fix it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets on hand for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

As well as serving The Patch with after hours plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or small.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?

Usually, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the type of faucet, we can usually replace dilapidated parts on the spot for a very acceptable outlay.
