Frequently Asked Questions - Important

Emergency Plumbers 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 valve, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to stop all the water to your property.

Once that’s done, give us a ring, whatever the day or time is. We will be with you rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you are waiting, clear away any significant things from the area, and mop up any water or position a container to catch any drips. If you 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.

Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Blocked Drains Issues

When your pipes are overflowing, you want help fast. Our emergency Runciman plumbers understand how frustrating and damaging blocked drains can be, and they are ready to get them flowing again.

Clogged drains can cause damage to your house, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the block yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need someone there quickly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that won’t drain, or a clog in the shower, or worse yet, sewage running down the hall or across your yard, our on call Runciman plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and unclog it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the problem to prevent further damage and return with what is required as soon as possible.

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 clogged drains ruin your day. Call our on call Runciman emergency plumbers now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

We usually take our hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up following a freezing day? Got a pile of of dishes to take care of? It is a pain to have a good wash up when the water is lukewarm.

If the hot water is not up to temperature, you need it to be repaired fast. From blown elements, to faulty thermostats, to leaking cylinders, our team has seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it fixed.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and can cause major damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about 30% of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant harm to your wallet very swiftly.

When you discover the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Runciman emergency plumbers straight away. We will get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If your cylinder isn’t repairable, our friendly team can assist in picking the best option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is old and worn out, our plumbers can arrange for improvements at a time that suits you as well.

Emergency Plumbers Ready

Burst Pipes Sorted In No Time

Large and small, hidden subterranean or within the floor, walls or roof, the pipes in your home are a concealed but key part of everyday activities. They carry clean water to your residence, and take dirty water and sewage away.

Most of the time we don’t even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden we’re standing in a damp patch, or worse yet, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be repaired as soon as possible, to minimise damage to your residence, belongings and health.

The moment a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way rapidly. Our team are ready to take your call 24/7. Before they get there, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to prevent further damage.

How did the pipe burst?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps can break down. If you live in a extremely cold location, the pipes may have frozen and cracked. They could just be old and dilapidated. The pipes may not have been adequately sealed in the first place. Tree roots may invade subterranean pipes.

When they arrive, our on call plumber will identify the problem and quickly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also examine the rest of your pipework if needed to look for other damage.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you have a problem tap? A faucet that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a fountain impression?

Over the years, we have found that even a dripping faucet can be a major vexation. Something that can go unnoticed in the hubbub of every day life without warning sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, ruining your shuteye.

It is not only frustrating drips though. Leaks may run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it is the 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 causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you just need a washer, or a whole new faucet, our on call plumbers have the parts that you require. All the vans are well stocked with parts and carry a modest selection of new taps and faucets for you to select from if needed. If we do not have what you require, we can install an interim tap until we locate the style you desire.

From big to small, our Runciman emergency plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. Not just taps, we provide a wide range of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

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

Find a piece of twine of some kind, and tie it around the faucet aerator so that it dangles down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide down the string and flow off quietly.
