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.

A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a tap, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to cut off all water to your residence.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be at your place as soon as possible to resolve the problem.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important items close to the leak, and mop up any water or place a bucket to catch the drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, 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.

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

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Runciman emergency plumbers realise that a clogged drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing right away. That is why we offer our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very quickly. Sometimes, you may be able to resolve the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible however, you need a plumber there rapidly to clear the clog so life can get back to normal.

Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across the garden, our emergency Runciman plumbers will efficiently locate the issue and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

In the rare case that our plumbers can not get the obstruction completely cleared or more extensive 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 obstructed drains ruin your day. Ring our emergency Runciman emergency plumbing team now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

You often don’t realise how heavily we rely upon easy fast hot water until it is not available anymore. Just finished up in the garage and really want a shower? Time to finish off a sink-full of dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s cold.

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

Hot water leaks can rapidly push your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks hidden in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause major damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it repaired asap, it will become more costly by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in the hot water system, call our Runciman urgent plumbers right away. We will get the hot water flowing again promptly. 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 you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our plumbers can help pick the best option for your budget, requirements and location. If the whole hot water system requires improvements, our plumbers can organise to do those repairs in a opportune manner as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed In No Time

Large or small, hidden under the ground or within the floor, walls or roof, the various pipes in your home are a hidden but important part of your everyday life. They carry fresh water to your house, and remove used water and sewage away.

Often, you don’t even think about their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when it does, it’s a major issue that must be sorted out immediately before your home, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers right away. We are waiting to assist Runciman residents right away. Whilst waiting for us to get there, it may help to turn off the water to the home.

Why did my pipe start leaking?

Pipes and taps can fail for a range of reasons. They may simply be past their prime and deteriorated. Or they may have frozen in very cold weather and burst. Tree roots might have grown into subterranean joints. Or there might be a problem with how they were set up to begin with.

When they arrive, our emergency plumber will identify the problem and expeitiously repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of the pipework if advised to check for other issues.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you own a troublesome tap? A tap that drips in the night, leaks or maybe is doing a fountain impression?

Many clients over the years have mentioned how aggravating it is to have a dripping or busted faucet. You may not even notice the drip during the day, but in the small hours when it’s echoing around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it is a major issue.

Not only is the sound irritating, but a dripping or leaking tap can escalate the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot tap. Do not waste money and possibly cause expensive damage to your residence, give us a ring.

Whether you want an entire new faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert emergency plumbers will efficiently identify the cause and resolve it. We even carry a modest selection of taps and faucets in their van for you 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 general maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too great or too small.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If the drip is not bad enough to be worth fixing right now, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge underneath it to dampen the racket. Alternatively knot a piece of string around the tap aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
