On Call Plumbers FAQ

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 taps that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff tap to cut off all water to your home.

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

While you are waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important things close to the leak, and clean up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you turned the mains water off, also 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.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Runciman urgent plumbers understand that a obstructed pipe can be a serious health risk that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our on call plumbing service.

Blocked drains can be a major health hazard, especially if sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there quickly to get the pipes unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain problem. Whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

In the rare instance that we can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until we 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 Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

You usually do not realise how much we count on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished in the garage and really want a shower? Need to finish off a few dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and discover it’s lukewarm.

When your hot water has fallen short, give us a ring. We’ll be there swiftly to identify the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to unreliable thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can rapidly push the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed fast, the cost 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, ring our Runciman on call plumbers immediately. We’ll get your hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the old hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our reliable team can assist in picking the best options for your budget, household needs and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our team can schedule an upgrade so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Resolved Quick

Large or small, hidden in the earth or in the floor, walls or ceiling, the pipes in your home are a hidden but significant part of your everyday life. They bring fresh water to your abode, and remove dirty water and sewage away.

Once there is an issue though, it is the most imperative thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be worrying stuff, and you want it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your residence, your belongings and even your health.

The moment a leak is discovered, give us a ring, and our on call plumbers will be on their way quickly. We are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to minimise further flooding.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for a range of reasons. If you reside in an older home, they might simply be old and dilapidated. If you live somewhere very cold, the pipework might have frozen and ruptured. In a newer house, there might be an issue with how they were installed. Underground joins might have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they arrive, our urgent plumber will diagnose the issue and rapidly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if needed to check for other issues.

All Taps Covered

Tapware Leaks Sorted

Do you have a problematic tap? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

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

Not only is the sound aggravating, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they might need in the vans to resolve that leak. We carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a new one, or can install a temporary one if required.

From big to small, our Runciman on call plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we offer a broad range of urgent and day to day plumbing services.

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

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