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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have isolating valves that can be turned off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains isolating valve to cut off all water to the residence.

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

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start mopping up any water, put a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important things from the area. If the house water is turned off, 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.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your drains are overflowing, you need help straight away. Our urgent Runciman plumbers understand how overwhelming and damaging blocked drains can be, and we are ready to get them unobstructed again.

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

Whether it is the ensuite sink that will not empty, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your garden, our same day Runciman plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare instance that we can not get the obstruction completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are needed, our team will find a temporary solution to tide you over 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!

Burst Pipes Resolved Fast

Big and small, buried subterranean or in the floor, wall or ceiling, the pipes in your home are a unseen but important part of everyday life. They bring clean water to your home, and take unclean water and sewage away.

Once there is an issue though, it’s the most important thing on your mind. A leak or burst pipe can be serious stuff, and you want it repaired asap to prevent damage to your house, your possessions and even your health.

Our urgent plumbers are prepared to be there right away, so contact our plumbers as soon as you discover a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can cut back further leaks by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older home, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they may have frozen and cracked. In a recently built house, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean seals may have been invaded by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once they are at your home, our same day plumber will locate the issue and expeitiously fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Resolved

Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply busted?

We’ve seen a range of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a tiny drip can sound like someone practising the kettle drums in the wee hours when the rest of the world is quiet. What was a trivial irritant, can suddenly become a major plumbing emergency.

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

Whether you require a whole replacement faucet, or simply a washer that needs replacing, our specialist same day plumbers will quickly diagnose the problem and remedy it. We even carry a small selection of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can install a temporary one if needed.

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

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

If the drip is not aggravating enough to be worth fixing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to minimise the noise. Alternatively tie a piece of string around the faucet aerator long enough to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
