Frequently Asked Questions - Important

FAQ Urgent 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 off the water at the nearest service valve and then at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the main isolation valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from growing, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to resolve the issue.

While waiting for our emergency plumber, remove any important items, wipe up any water, and put a bucket 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 behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Solved

We realise a obstructed pipe can be a major problem. Whether it is the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a blocked drain is seldom a good thing. That is why our crew of urgent plumbers are waiting to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Obestructed pipes can be a serious health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and a little can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the drains unblocked.

Whether it’s the laundry sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our emergency Runciman plumbers will efficiently locate the obstruction and unblock it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and return with what is needed 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.

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

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Issues

We tend to don’t think about how heavily we rely on easy quick hot water until it is not there any longer. Just finished up in the garage and really need a wash? Need to finish up some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the water and find it’s lukewarm.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it hot again as soon as possible so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in the hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your pocket very swiftly.

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

If you do need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick a suitable option for your budget, requirements and location. If your entire hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

The pipes in your residence are a generally hidden but key part of daily activities. Large and small, under the ground, in the wall or the roof, they bring fresh water to you and take the unclean stuff away.

Most of the time you barely even think of them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you are looking at a pool of water, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed immediately, to prevent damage to your home, belongings and health.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be there right away, so call our team as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can minimise further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if needed.

How did the pipe fail?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps can start to leak. If you reside in a extremely cold region, the pipes might have frozen and split. They may simply be old and past their use-by. They may not have been properly installed when the home was built. Tree roots can grow into underground seals.

Once they are at your home, our emergency plumber will identify the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of the pipes if needed to check for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you own a broken faucet? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing an impression of a geyser?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how frustrating it is to have a dripping or busted faucet. You might not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but at night when it is reverberating around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, all of a sudden it’s a serious issue.

It is not just irritating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

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

As well as providing Runciman with urgent plumbing of all types, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too large or too small.

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

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