Frequently Asked Questions - Important

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 there is still water leaking, turn off the tap to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water valve for your home. If you are unable to locate the main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to solve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a bucket to catch any drips. If you 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, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps as well.

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Runciman urgent plumbers know that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs fixing asap. That’s why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your home, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the block yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need someone there quickly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether the toilet is overflowing, your sink will not empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll be at your home quickly to resolve the problem. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we require available to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are completed.

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 blocked pipes ruin your day. Ring our urgent Runciman emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and badly want a hot shower? Time to put the children in the bath? Got a pile of dishes to finish up? It’s never opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is cold.

If the hot water isn’t up to temperature, you need it fixed promptly. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your property. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of the usual home’s power bill, so a leak can cause major damage to your pocket very swiftly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We will get the hot water working again promptly. 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking a suitable option for your budget, needs and location. If your whole hot water system requires upgrading, we can organise to do that in a timely fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Quick

The pipes in your home are a largely hidden but integral part of daily life. Large and small, in the ground, in the walls or the ceiling, they bring fresh water to your home and take the unclean stuff away.

Most of the time we don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you are looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it fixed asap, to minimise damage to your house, belongings and well-being.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a call, and our emergency plumbers will be on the road quickly. We are ready to take your call day or night. Before they get there, it could be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to minimise yet more leaking.

Why did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for a range of reasons. If you own an older residence, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, they may have frozen and ruptured. In a newer residence, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Subterranean connections could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our urgent plumber will locate the issue and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if needed to look for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Fixed

Do you own a busted tap? One that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

We have seen an assortment of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a small drip can sound like a woodpecker at 2am when you’re trying to sleep. What was a inconsequential niggle, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks may drive up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole replacement faucet, our urgent plumbers have got what you require. All our vehicles are fully stocked with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we don’t have the faucet you want, our plumber can install a temporary tap until we locate what you desire.

As well as serving Runciman with emergency plumbing of all types, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too great or minor.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it is not annoying enough to be worth fixing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to dampen the racket. Or tie a piece of twine around the tap spout sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
