Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

After Hours 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 water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a water valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your home to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there promptly to fix the leak.

While you wait, start mopping up any water, position a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable things 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet bowl.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Runciman 24 hour plumbers realise that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to right away. That’s why we provide our after hours plumbing service.

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

Whether your toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t empty, or the stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we will be at your abode speedily to solve the problem. Our experienced plumbers will get the water running where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

With our well equipped vans, we have all we need available to fix almost all drain obstructions right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can put a temporary solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are concluded.

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.

Do not let obstructed drains ruin your day. Call our 24 hour Runciman emergency plumbers now!

Don't Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

Had a hard day at work and desperately need a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids in the bath? Got a sink-full of dishes to finish up? It’s seldom handy to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is tepid.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you need it to be hot again promptly. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can rapidly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a large amount, and may cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about 30% of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause serious damage to your pocket very swiftly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there’s a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman after hours plumbers right away. We will get your hot water flowing again quickly. If there is 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 the cylinder isn’t able to be fixed, our reliable team can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household needs, budget and area. If your whole system is old and worn out, we can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

The pipes in your home are a normally concealed but indispensible part of your everyday activities. Big and small, in the garden, in the wall or the roof, they carry fresh water to your home and take the dirty stuff away.

Usually, you barely even recall their existence unless something goes wrong. But when it does, it is generally a serious issue that needs to be fixed immediately before your house, your furnishings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

The moment a leak is discovered, give our team a call, and our after hours plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are waiting to answer day or night. Before they arrive, it is probably a good idea to turn off the main water valve to the property to prevent yet more flooding.

Why did my pipe burst?

There are various reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you reside in a extremely cold region, the pipes may have frozen and cracked. They could just be aged and dilapidated. The pipes may not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots may grow into underground seals.

Once the 24 hour plumber is present, they will isolate the issues and repair them in a speedy and professional manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Leaking Or Dripping?

Do you own a tap that won’t turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is altogether defective?

Over the years, we have learned that even a dripping faucet can be a significant vexation. Something that can go unheard in the hubbub of daily life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, destroying your shuteye.

It’s not only frustrating drips though. Leaks can run up the water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. And, if water is leaking into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that small tap leak can end up putting a huge dent in your wallet.

Whether you want a whole replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our professional 24 hour plumbers will speedily identify the problem and solve it. We even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets on hand to select from, or can install a temporary one if required.

As well as providing Runciman with after hours plumbing of all kinds, we are available for day to day maintenance and installation work. Night or day, no job is too great or too small.

The drips are keeping me awake, how can I temporarily stop them to get some peace and quiet?

Normally, a dripping faucet is caused by a dilapidated or faulty washer, seal or ceramic cartridge. Depending on the style of faucet, we can usually replace worn out parts immediately for a very acceptable price.
