On Call Plumber 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.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest isolating valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot find the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

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

While you wait for our emergency plumber, remove any significant things, wipe up any water, and position a bucket to catch drips. You should also 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.

Blocked Drains Issues

We understand a obstructed pipe can be a serious problem. Whether it is the laundry sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a blocked pipe is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of on call plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.

Clogged drains can be a major health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Occasionally you can unclog it on your own with a plunger and a little know-how. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, or 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.

In the rare instance that we can not get the clog completely cleared or more extensive repairs are needed, we will find an interim solution to get you through until we 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.

Do not let clogged drains ruin your day. Ring our emergency The Patch emergency plumbing team now!

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

The pipes in your residence are a generally concealed but indispensible part of your everyday activities. Big or small, in the garden, in the walls or the ceiling, they carry clean water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Usually, people never even recall their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s a significant problem that must be fixed immediately before the building, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our on call plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are ready to take your call any time. Before they get there, it could be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce further damage.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a variety of reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework might have iced up and split. In a new residence, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our emergency plumber will locate the issue and speedily repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other issues.

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

Find a length of string of some type, and tie it onto the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and dribble off quietly.
