Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Urgent 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.

If there is water still leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if you can, or go immediately to the main valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

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

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, clear away any important things, wipe up any water, and position a container to catch drips. You also should switch off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 alongside the toilet.

Blocked Drains Solved

When your drains are overflowing, you want help quickly. Our urgent Runciman plumbers know how frustrating and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.

Blocked drains can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes unclogged.

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink will not drain, or your stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your abode rapidly to solve the problem. Our knowledgeable 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 problem that needs extra equipment or parts, we can 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.

Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

We tend to take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t working correctly. Need to put muddy kids in the bath? Deperately need a good soak to warm up after a chilly day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to finish up? It is a pain to have a proper clean when the water is cold.

When the hot water isn’t giving you that happy feeling, you need it working again promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or practically boiling, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it repaired as soon as possible so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly put the electricity bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed as soon as possible, the cost can become more costly by the hour.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman urgent plumbers immediately. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. 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 your cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our reliable team can assist in picking the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Promptly

The pipes in your home are a generally unseen but significant part of your everyday life. Big or small, underground, in the wall or the ceiling or under the floor, they carry fresh water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Usually, you barely even remember their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s a major problem that needs to be sorted out immediately before the building, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

When you discover a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to assist Runciman residents right away. While you are waiting for our plumber to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

How did my pipe burst?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you live in a very cold location, they might have frozen and burst. They might just be old and worn out. The pipes may not have been properly installed in the first place. Tree roots can invade subterranean pipes.

Once they are at your home, our emergency plumber will diagnose the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if required to look for other damage.

All Taps Covered

Tap Leaks Solved

Do you own a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether broken?

We have seen all sorts of tap problems over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums at night when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor annoyance, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.

As well as keeping the household awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Don’t let the bills increase even further, or possibly cause damage to your home, call our emergency plumber right away.

From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to halt your leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to pick from if you require a replacement, or can install a temporary one if required.

From large to small, our Runciman urgent plumbers can do it all. Not just taps, we provide a broad selection of urgent and general plumbing services.

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

Find a length of string of some type, and knot it around the tap aerator so that it dangles down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the twine and trickle off quietly.
