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.

Many appliances and fixtures have taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you cannot find a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water shutoff valve to cut off all water to the property.

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

While you wait for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, mop up any water, and put a bucket to catch 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.

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

Blocked Drains Problems

We understand a obstructed pipe can be a major emergency. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap outside your home, a clogged pipe is never a good thing. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are ready to resolve your plumbing emergency.

A blocked drain is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unblock it by yourself using a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Runciman plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require available to fix almost all drain obstructions right away. If there is an underlying problem that requires other equipment or parts, we can usually 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 pipe send your day down the tubes. Call us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

We generally take having 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 freezing day? Got a few of dishes to take care of? It’s hard to have a good clean up when the water is not hot.

When the hot water has let you down, give our team a ring. Our plumbers will be there quickly to identify the issue and fix it. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, we can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of your home’s power bill, so a leak can cause serious harm to your wallet very rapidly.

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

If the old hot water cylinder is not able to be fixed, our professional plumbers can assist in picking the best options for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our team can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your house are a generally hidden but important part of your daily activities. Big or little, in the ground, in the wall or the roof, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Ususally we barely even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and suddenly we’re looking at a damp patch, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be sorted out as soon as possible, to prevent damage to your house, possessions and health.

As soon as a leak is identified, give us a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re waiting to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it is probably a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to prevent yet more damage.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can deteriorate for many reasons. They may simply be past their prime and worn out. Or they may have iced up in extremely cold weather and split. Tree roots could have grown into underground seals. Or there may be an issue with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

Our 24 hour plumbers will diagnose and repair the damaged pipes or leaks quickly and expertly.

We Have You Covered

Taps Not Working?

Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply busted?

Many customers over the years have told us how annoying it can be to have a dripping or broken tap. You may not even notice the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s reverberating throughout the house like someone practicing the drums, suddenly it is a major issue.

It isn’t just frustrating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s the hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

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

From urgent plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too extensive or little for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, the team also provide a wide range of additional plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If it is not aggravating enough to need fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the sound. Alternatively tie a piece of string around the faucet aerator sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
