Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

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.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water shutoff valve for your home. If you are unable to locate a main valve to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

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

In the meantime, begin cleaning up any water, place a container to catch drips, and remove valuable items from the affected 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.

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

Blocked Drains Fixed

Our Runciman 24 hour plumbers know that a obstructed drain can be a major health risk that needs fixing immediately. That is why we provide our emergency plumbing service.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your residence, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to resolve the block 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’s the ensuite sink that won’t clear, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your garden, our 24 hour Runciman plumbers will efficiently identify the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying problem that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to get you through until the final repairs are completed.

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 get you down. Call us now!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Issues

It’s been a hard day at work and badly need a toasty warm shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Got some dishes to finish off? It is seldom handy to turn on the hot tap and suddenly realise that the water is cold.

If the hot water is not up to standard, you need it hot again as fast as possible. From blown elements, to unreliable thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we have seen everything and can quickly identify the issue and get it resolved.

Hot water leaks can quickly push the power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed as soon as possible, the cost can become more costly by the day.

If you find the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in the hot water system, ring our Runciman emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If the cylinder is not fixable, our helpful plumbers can assist in picking the best option for your household requirements, budget and area. If your whole system is old and deteriorating, we can schedule repairs at a time that suits you as well.

Why is my tap dripping?
