Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ After Hours 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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains valve to stop all water to the property.

Once that is done, give our plumber a ring, whatever the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to get things sorted.

While waiting, clear away any significant items from the area, and clean up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the heating for the hot water 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 valves also.

Blocked Drains Issues

We know a clogged pipe can be a serious emergency. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked pipe is seldom a happy circumstance. That is why our team of after hours plumbers are waiting to resolve your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to clear the problem yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, 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 emergency. Whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to prevent further damage and return with what is needed as soon as possible.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

Had a hard day at work and desperately need a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Have a few dishes to finish off? It’s rarely opportune to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is lukewarm.

When the hot water is not up to standard, you need it hot again as soon as possible. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Did you know around thiry percent of the average home power bill is used for hot water heating? A leak can rapidly send your power bill through the roof. Leaks can also cause a considerable amount of damage to your home and to items stored nearby. Do not let hot water catastrophies hurt your pocket, get them fixed asap.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman after hours plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again promptly. If there is 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 isn’t repairable, our friendly plumbers can assist in identifying the best options for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our team can schedule an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

Large and little, buried under the ground or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your house are a hidden but vital part of your daily life. They bring clean water to your home, and transfer unclean water and sewage away.

Ususally you don’t even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and suddenly you’re standing in a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now you urgently need it resolved as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your house, belongings and health.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our after hours plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We are ready to answer day or night. Before they arrive, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to prevent further damage.

Why did my pipe fail?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have frozen and burst. In a recently built house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground pipes could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our on call plumber will identify the problem and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also assess the rest of your pipes if advised to check for other damage.

All Tapware Handled

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you have a problem faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

Many customers over the years have told us how annoying it is to live with a dripping or defective tap. You might not even be aware of the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it is echoing around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it is a sigificant issue.

Not only can it keep the household awake, a leaking tap can put a big hole in your budget as well, especially if it’s hot water. Don’t let the bills increase further, or possibly cause damage to your residence, contact our on call plumber right away.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you require. All our vans are well stocked with parts and carry a modest choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have what you need, our plumber can put in a temporary faucet until we locate the style you desire.

From after hours plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or minor for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we fix leaking taps, we can also provide a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

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