Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ - Emergency 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.

If water is still leaking, turn the water off at the nearest service valve or at the mains valve outside. If you cannot locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any hour of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to resolve the issue.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant things close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating 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 taps also.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Runciman 24 hour plumbers realise that a clogged pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing as soon as possible. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.

A obstructed pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you are lucky, you can unclog it yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need help quickly. Let’s face it, a clogged or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your abode quickly to resolve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to tide you over until the final repairs are concluded.

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 Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

You tend to do not think about how much we depend upon effortless fast hot water until it isn’t there anymore. Just finished in the garage and really need a wash? Time to finish up a pile of dishes? The last thing you want is to turn on the tap and find it’s tepid.

When the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you want it repaired as soon as possible. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the problem and get it fixed.

Hot water leaks can swiftly send your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired as soon as possible, it will become more costly by the hour.

If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman emergency plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If you find a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our friendly team can help pick the best solution for your household requirements, budget and location. If the whole system is tired and worn out, our plumbers can organise repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

From the small fresh water pipes in your floor, walls and roof, to the large sewage pipes in the ground, the majority of the pipes in your home are tucked away out of sight and out of mind. You never even think of them until there’s a problem.

Normally, people never even think about them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it is generally a major issue that must be sorted urgently before your home, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

Our emergency plumbers are prepared to get to you right away, so call our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe fail?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you reside in a cold region, the pipes might have iced up and burst. They may simply be aged and worn out. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots can invade underground junctions.

Once they arrive, our 24 hour plumber will identify the issue and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other issues.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you live with a irksome faucet? A faucet that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just defective?

We have been called to a range of tap problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at 2am when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential niggle, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your house, call our team now.

Whether you need a whole new tap, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist 24 hour plumbers will efficiently diagnose the cause and solve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Runciman emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

If it’s not bad enough to need repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the sound. Or tie some twine around the tap spout long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
