Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

FAQ: After Hours Plumbers

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 isolating valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains water isolating valve to stop all the water to the house.

Once you have stopped the diaster from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. We’ll be there promptly to solve the issue.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, begin wiping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away significant possessions from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, 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.

The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Runciman on call plumbers realise that a blocked drain can be a major health hazard that needs fixing asap. That is why we have our after hours plumbing service.

A clogged pipe is a major predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it using a plunger. But if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever want to see, or smell!

Whether it’s the bathroom sink that won’t empty, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our on call Runciman plumbers will quickly locate the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that our plumbers can’t get the clog completely removed or more extensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers 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.

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

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have a sink-full of dishes to take care of? It is rarely handy to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden discover that the water is tepid.

When your hot water has let you down, give us a ring. We will be there promptly to identify the issue and get it fixed. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can sort them out and get your life back to normal.

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

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Runciman after hours plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. 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 cylinder is not able to be fixed, our reliable team can help pick the best option for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can schedule upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

From the small clean water pipes in the walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes underground, most of the pipes in your house are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. We don’t even think of them until there’s a problem.

Normally, we never even remember their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s a significant issue that must be fixed immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

Our after hours plumbers are prepared to be on the scene right away, so ring our team as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can minimise further damage by turning the water to the house off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. The pipes may simply be old and dilapidated. Or they could have iced up in very cold weather and cracked. Tree roots might have grown into subterranean connections. Or there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed to begin with.

When they arrive, our on call plumber will identify the issue and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipes if advised to check for other issues.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you have a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious annoyance. Something that may go unnoticed in the hurly burly of every day life without warning sounds like a jack hammer in the middle of the night, ruining your deams.

It isn’t just irritating drips though. Leaks can drive up the water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our on call plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well stocked with parts and have a modest selection of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we do not have the tap you need, our plumber can put in an interim faucet until we track down what you want.

From after hours plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too great or little for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we fix your leaking taps, the team can also offer a broad selection of additional plumbing services.

Why is my tap dripping?

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth repairing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively tie some string around the faucet aerator sufficient to touch the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
