FAQ Emergency 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.

If water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point or at the mains tap outside. If you cannot find the main valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the household pipework and minimise the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time day or night. We will be at your place as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, clear away any important possessions close to the leak, and clean up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you have 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our emergency Runciman plumbers know how frustrating and damaging obstructed drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

A clogged drain is a serious predicament, especially if it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help rapidly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever wish to see, or smell!

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we will be at your home quickly to solve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the problem to minimise further damage and get back with what is required as soon as we can.

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.

Do not let obstructed drains ruin your day. Ring our urgent Runciman emergency plumbers now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

We usually take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Need to put muddy kids in the shower? Want a good soak to defrost following a long cold day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It’s awkward to have a good clean when the water is cold.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you want it hot again speedily. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen it all and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for around thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very quickly.

When you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Runciman emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not fixable, our professional team can assist in picking the best solution for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is old and worn out, we can organise upgrades at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Promptly

The pipes in your home are a normally concealed but very important part of your everyday life. Large or small, under the ground, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they bring fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Normally, people never even think about their existence unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it’s generally a serious issue that must be sorted out urgently before your home, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road quickly. We are ready to take your call any time. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to reduce further damage.

Why did the pipe start leaking?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and cracked. In a newer home, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Underground seals could have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once our urgent plumber arrives, they will isolate the problems and repair them in a rapid and professional manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tapware Leaks Sorted

Do you own a annoying faucet? A tap that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how irritating it can be to live with a dripping or defective tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but in the wee hours when it’s resounding around the house like tapdancing elephants, all of a sudden it is a serious issue.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can send your bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot tap. Don’t waste money and potentially cause long term damage to your house, call us now.

Whether you just need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have got what you need. All the vehicles are well equipped with parts and carry a modest selection of replacement taps and faucets for you to select from if required. If we don’t have the faucet you want, we can put in a temporary faucet until we find what you need.

From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too large or small for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we repair your leaking taps, we also provide a wide range of other plumbing services.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

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