Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent 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 still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you could try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there rapidly to get things sorted.

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

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Problems

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help quickly. Our urgent Runciman plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging obstructed drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can fix it yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it’s a item blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

In the rare instance that we can not get the obstruction completely removed or more extensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to keep you going until our plumbers return.

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 pipe send your day down the tubes. 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

We generally take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put grubby kids in the bath? Want a good soak to warm up following a wintery day? Have some of dishes to take care of? It is awkward to have a good clean up when the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not up to standard, you want it to be fixed as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your wallet very rapidly.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman urgent plumbers as soon as you can. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can help pick the best solution for your budget, requirements and location. If the entire hot water system needs improvements, we can organise to do that in a opportune fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

From the little clean water pipes in your walls and roof, to the big sewage pipes underground, the majority of the pipes in your home are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You never even remember them until there’s a problem.

Normally, we never even think about them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it is usually a serious problem that must be resolved immediately before your home, your possessions or even your health are damaged or ruined.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a call, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way quickly. Our team are waiting to answer day or night. Before they get there, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to minimise further leaking.

How did the pipe burst?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps might burst. If you live in a extremely cold region, they may have iced up and cracked. They could just be old and dilapidated. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed when the home was built. Tree roots can grow into subterranean junctions.

Once they arrive, our after hours plumber will locate the issue and quickly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipes if advised to check for other problems.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a broken faucet? A tap that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

A lot of customers over the years have told us how irritating it is to have a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even hear the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it is echoing around your home like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a major problem.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call our team now.

Whether you require an entire replacement tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional after hours plumbers will rapidly diagnose the trouble and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.

From urgent plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too great or small for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, the team also offer 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?

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the brand of tap, we can usually replace dilapidated parts immediately for a very reasonable cost.
