Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ - Emergency 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.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s done, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you promptly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant possessions from the area, and mop up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also 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.

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

Blocked Drains Issues

Our Runciman urgent plumbers realise that a obstructed pipe can be a major health risk that needs fixing right away. That’s why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

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

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we need available to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs extra equipment or parts, we can put an interim solution in place to tide you over 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Not Working

We generally do not think about how much you depend on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t available anymore. Just finished up in the garage and really want a wash? Need to finish off a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the water and discover it’s cold.

When your hot water has fallen short, give our team a ring. Our team will be there swiftly to figure out the issue and fix it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our team can sort them out and get you back to normal life.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very quickly.

If you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman emergency plumbers immediately. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the existing hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our helpful team can assist in finding the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed Quick

The pipes in your house are a largely hidden but significant part of your daily activities. Large and small, subterranean, within the wall or the roof or under the floor, they bring fresh water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Usually, people never even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it is a major problem that needs to be sorted out urgently before your home, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be with you quickly. Our team are waiting to take your call any time. Before they arrive, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise yet more leaking.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be aged and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and split. In a recently built home, there might be an issue with how the pipes were installed. Underground connections may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our urgent plumbers can identify and repair the burst pipes or leaks quickly and expertly.

We Have You Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is altogether defective?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a major irritation. A little thing that may go unheard in the brouhaha of daily life suddenly sounds like a jack hammer at 2am, disturbing your sleep.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot tap. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, call us now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to remedy that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Runciman with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our team are available for general maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or small.

Why is my tap dripping?

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the tap spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run down the twine and trickle off quietly.
