Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

FAQ: Emergency Plumbers

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

Once that is sorted, give us a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be there shortly to get things sorted.

While waiting for our emergency plumber to arrive, remove any significant things, clean up any water, and put a bucket to catch drips. You also should turn off the hot water heating if the main water is turned off.

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 is also called an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Runciman on call plumbers understand that a clogged drain can be a major health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our emergency plumbing service.

Obestructed pipes can be a major health hazard, especially when sewage is involved. If you’re lucky you can fix it yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you don’t have a plunger, our emergency plumbers can be there speedily to get the pipes unblocked.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain problem. Regardless of whether it is a item blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone terribly wrong with the sewage line, our on call plumbers will get things flowing again.

With our well equipped vehicles, we have everything we require on hand to repair almost all drain blockages right away. If there is an underlying issue that requires extra equipment or parts, we can usually put an interim solution in place to keep you going until the final repairs are finished.

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 Go Without Hot Water

Hot Water Leaks

You usually do not realise how frequently you rely on effortless fast hot water until it isn’t available any longer. Just finished in the garden and really want a wash? Want to finish up some dishes? The last thing you need is to turn on the tap and find it’s barely warm.

When the hot water has let you down, give us a ring. Our team will be there quickly to identify the issue and get it resolved. From heating elements to faulty thermostats to leaking cylinders, our plumbers can repair them and get you back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can quickly put your electricity bill through the roof. Leaks unseen in the back of the hot water cupboard can create major damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed promptly, the cost will become more costly by the hour.

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

If your cylinder is not able to be overhauled, our reliable plumbers can assist in picking the most suitable solution for your household requirements, budget and area. If the whole system is aged and deteriorating, our plumbers can arrange for repairs at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Fixed Fast

Big and small, hidden in the earth or in the floor, walls or roof, the pipes in your house are a hidden but vital part of your everyday life. They carry fresh water to your abode, and remove unclean water and sewage out.

As soon as you find an issue though, it’s the most important thought in your mind. A leak or burst pipe is serious stuff, and you want it resolved immediately to prevent damage to your home, your contents and even your health.

As soon as you identify a leak or burst pipe, phone our emergency plumbers as soon as possible. Our team are waiting to assist Runciman residents right now. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could be useful to turn off the water to the property.

Why did the pipe fail?

Pipes and taps can fail for many reasons. The pipes may simply be past their prime and dilapidated. Or they may have iced up in very cold weather and burst. Tree roots may have forced open underground connections. Or there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed in the first place.

When they are at your home, our on call plumber will identify the problem and promptly fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipework if advised to check for other damage.

All Taps Handled

Taps Not Working?

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

We have seen all sorts of faucet problems over the years, and know that even a small drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink in the small hours when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial niggle, can all of a sudden be a drastic plumbing emergency.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Don’t waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your home, give us a ring.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need on hand to halt that leak. We carry a modest selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From emergency plumbing to every day maintenance, there is no job too great or minor for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, we also offer a broad range of additional plumbing services.

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

Find a length of string of some type, and knot it onto the tap aerator so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the string and flow off quietly.
