Urgent Plumber 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 service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to find a main valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once you have stopped the leak from worsening, give our emergency plumber a call, any time of the day or night. We will be there quickly to resolve the problem.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, position a container to catch drips, and clear away valuable items from the affected area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

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.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Fixed

When your pipes are overflowing, you want assistance fast. Our urgent Runciman plumbers know how overwhelming and damaging clogged pipes can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

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 yard, our 24 hour Runciman plumbers will quickly locate the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the clog completely cleared or more extensive repairs are required, we will find an interim solution to get you through 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 pipe send your day down the tubes. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Problems

Had a hard day at work and badly want a hot shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Got some dishes to deal with? It’s never opportune to turn on the hot faucet and all of a sudden realise that the water is barely warm.

When the hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you want it fixed quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is unreliable and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it sorted as fast as possible so you can get back to normal life.

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

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, ring our Runciman urgent plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water working again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your existing hot water cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our professional team can help in picking the best soutions for your budget, home size and your locality. If the rest of the system is also past it’s use by, our team can schedule improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

Big and small, buried underground or within the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your residence are a hidden but important part of your everyday activities. They carry clean water to your house, and take dirty water and sewage away.

Normally we barely even think of them. Not until something goes wrong, and all of a sudden we are looking at a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now you urgently need it sorted out without delay, to prevent damage to your home, possessions and health.

Our urgent plumbers are ready to get to you quickly, so ring us as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

Why did my pipe burst?

There are many reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you reside in a cold region, they may have iced up and ruptured. They might simply be old and past their use-by. The pipes may not have been installed properly in the first place. Tree roots can force open underground junctions.

Once they are at your home, our 24 hour plumber will diagnose the issue and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of your pipes if needed to look for other issues.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Solved

Do you own a problematic faucet? One that won’t turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain defective?

Over the years, we’ve found that even a dripping tap can be a significant aggravation. A little thing that might go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life without warning sounds like a jack hammer in the wee hours, destroying your shuteye.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking tap can send your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Do not waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your house, call our team now.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire new faucet, our 24 hour plumbers have the parts that you need. All our vans are fully equipped with parts and carry a small choice of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we don’t have what you need, our plumber can install a temporary tap until we find what you want.

From large to small, our Runciman urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we provide a wide range of emergency and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Usually, a dripping tap is caused by a dilapidated or flawed washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can frequently replace worn out parts immediately for a very modest price.
