Frequently Asked Questions - Start Here

On Call 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 still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main valve for your property. If you are unable to locate the water valve to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the residence to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

Once that is sorted, give our team a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you promptly to get things sorted.

While you wait, start cleaning up any water, position a bucket to catch drips, and clear away important possessions 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 is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Problems

Our Runciman emergency plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to asap. That’s why we provide our on call plumbing service.

A blocked pipe is a major problem, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can fix it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can’t, you need assistance quickly. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something we ever wish to lay eyes on, or smell!

Whether it’s the ensuite sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worse yet, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our emergency Runciman plumbers will quickly locate the issue and clear it so that life can get back to normal.

Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything right then and there. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily resolve the problem to prevent further damage and get back 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 obstructed pipes ruin your day. Ring our emergency Runciman emergency plumbing team right away!

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Problems

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately need a refreshing shower? Time to put the kids into the tub? Got a few dishes to finish up? It’s rarely handy to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is barely warm.

If the hot water isn’t up to standard, you want it to be working again promptly. From blown elements, to defective thermostats, to leaking cylinders, we’ve seen everything and can quickly diagnose the issue and get it resolved.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause major damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very rapidly.

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

If the cylinder isn’t able to be overhauled, our friendly plumbers can help pick the most suitable option for your household needs, budget and location. If the whole system is past it’s use by date and deteriorating, our plumbers can schedule improvements at a time that works for you as well.

Burst Pipes Resolved In No Time

Big and little, buried in the earth or within the floor, walls or roof, the various pipes in your residence are a hidden but key part of everyday life. They bring clean water to your house, and remove dirty water and sewage out.

Often, we barely even think about their existence until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it’s a serious issue that needs to be sorted out immediately before your home, your belongings or even your well-being are damaged or destroyed.

Our on call plumbers are ready to be there right away, so ring us as soon as you find a burst pipe or leak of any kind. You can reduce further damage by turning the water off at the mains tap if required.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and start to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older house, they may simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have frozen and cracked. In a newer house, there could be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean seals might have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

When they are at your home, our emergency plumber will diagnose the issue and rapidly repair the leak or burst pipe. They can also check out the rest of the pipes if needed to look for other problems.

We Have You Covered

Tap Issues Sorted

Do you own a problem faucet? A faucet that drips in the night, leaks or perhaps is doing an impression of a geyser?

We have been called to all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and we understand that even a little drip can sound like someone tap dancing in your sink at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor aggravation, can all of a sudden be a major plumbing emergency.

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

Whether you want a whole replacement faucet, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert emergency plumbers will quickly identify the trouble and fix it. Our plumbers even carry a small choice of taps and faucets in their van to select from, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From on call plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too great or minor for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we fix your leaking taps, the team can also offer a wide range of additional plumbing services.

Can I stop the dripping noise temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If the drip is not annoying enough to warrant repairing right this moment, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Alternatively knot a piece of string around the tap spout long enough to touch the bottom of the basin, so that the drips run down instead of falling.
