Frequently Asked Questions - What To Do

Urgent 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 water is leaking, turn off the water at the nearest location or at the mains tap outside. If you can’t locate the water main isolation valve or a tap to the appliance, then turn on all the cold faucets inside and out to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any time of the day or night. We will be there as soon as we can to save the day.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start wiping up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and clear away valuable items from the area. If the property 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.

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

Blocked Drains Solved

Our Runciman after hours plumbers know that a blocked pipe can be a major health hazard that needs fixing immediately. That is why we have our urgent plumbing service.

Clogged drains can be a serious health risk, especially when sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger and some can-do attitude. If you do not have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive rapidly to get the pipes cleared.

Our vans are well equipped to resolve any drain emergency. Whether it’s a toy blocking the toilet, or a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get things flowing once more.

With our well equipped vans, we have everything we need on hand to fix almost all drain blockages right then and there. If there is an underlying issue that needs other equipment or parts, we can usually put a temporary solution in place to keep you going 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 blocked pipes ruin your day. Call our after hours Runciman emergency plumbers right away!

Leaks can also cause a lot of damage to your house and to things stored in the hot water cupboard. Do not let hot water troubles empty your pocket, get them fixed as soon as possible.

As soon as you discover a leak or burst pipe, phone our urgent plumbers without delay. Our team are waiting to help Runciman residents right now. While you are waiting for us to arrive, it could help to turn off the water to the property.

Why did my pipe fail?

There are varying possible reasons why pipes and taps may fail. If you reside in a very cold climate, the pipes may have iced up and ruptured. They could simply be aged and worn out. They may not have been installed properly when the home was built. Tree roots can invade subterranean seals.

Once our after hours plumber arrives, they can identify the problems and fix them in a prompt and expert manner.

From Tap Washers to Full Replacements

Tapware Problems Solved

Do you have a busted faucet? One that drips all night, leaks or perhaps is doing a geyser impression?

Over the years, we’ve learned that even a dripping faucet can be a serious aggravation. Something that might go unnoticed in the hurly burly of daily life suddenly sounds like elephants tap dancing in the middle of the night, destroying your sleep.

Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking tap can raise the bills through the roof, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your residence, call us now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they need in the vans to fix that leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if required.

From urgent plumbing to non-urgent maintenance, there is no job too big or minor for our Runciman plumbers. Not only can we repair leaking taps, we can also offer a wide selection of additional plumbing services.

Why is my faucet dripping?

If it is not bad enough to need fixing right now, you can place a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the racket. Or tie a length of string around the tap spout sufficient to rest on the base of the basin, so that the drip slides down instead of falling.
