Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours 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 there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to find a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there promptly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start mopping up any water, place a container to catch drips, and remove valuable items from the area. If the mains water is turned off, then 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.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Thorngate on call plumbers understand that a clogged pipe can be a major health risk that needs attending to as soon as possible. That’s why we offer our after hours plumbing service.

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

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across the yard, our on call Thorngate plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and repair it so that life can get back to normal.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is required 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.

Don’t let obstructed pipes ruin your day. Ring our on call Thorngate emergency plumbers right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

We normally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Time to put mucky kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Have some of dishes to finish off? It is awkward to have a good wash when the water is cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you want it remedied quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it hot again as soon as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around 30% of your household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your wallet very swiftly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Thorngate after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. 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 your old hot water cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly plumbers can assist in identifying the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, we can organise an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

After Hours Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

From the small fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, most of the pipes in your residence are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We never even think of them until there is a problem.

Once there is an issue though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you want it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your well-being.

As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our after hours plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are waiting to answer any time. Before they get there, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise further leaking.

How did my pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. They might simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have frozen in very frigid weather and split. Tree roots might have forced open subterranean seals. Or there could be an issue with how they were installed in the first place.

Once they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the issue and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Taps Not Working?

Do you have a problem tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping tap can be a significant annoyance. Something that may go unheard in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the wee hours, disturbing your sleep.

Not only can it keep the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s hot water. Don’t let the bills rise even further, or maybe even cause damage to your residence, call our on call plumber right away.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to fix that leak. Our plumbers carry a small selection of basin and sink taps to choose from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as serving Thorngate with after hours plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or minor.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?

Find a length of twine of some type, and knot it onto the faucet spout so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the string and flow off quietly.
