FAQ: Urgent Plumber

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 shutoff valve for your property. If you’re unable to locate the tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold taps inside and outside the house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.

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

While you are waiting, remove any important things from the area, and clean up any water or put a bucket to catch any drips. If you’ve turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating 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.

It is also known as an isolating valve, toby or stopcock.

Blocked Drains Hassles

When your drains are overflowing, you need assistance straight away. Our urgent Runciman plumbers know how frustrating and damaging obstructed pipes can be, and they are ready to get them cleared again.

A clogged pipe is a serious predicament, especially when it involves sewage. If you’re lucky, you can unblock it by yourself with a plunger. However if you can not, you need assistance fast. Let’s face it, a blocked or overflowing toilet or sewer is something none of us ever want to see, or smell!

Our vans are well equipped to deal with any drain emergency. Regardless of whether it is a toy blocking the toilet, a clog in the shower, or something has gone horribly wrong with the sewage pipes, our on call plumbers will get everything flowing again.

In the rare case that we can’t get the obstruction completely cleared or more comprehensive repairs are required, our team will find an interim solution to tide you over until our plumbers come back.

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.

Do not let a blocked pipe get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.

Don't Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water Tank Leaks

It’s been a hard day at work and desperately want a toasty warm shower? Time to put the children into the tub? Have some dishes to finish up? It’s rarely opportune to turn on the hot tap and all of a sudden realise that the water is barely warm.

When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you need it working again quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is defective and the water is barely warm or boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is always overflowing, you need it remedied quickly so you can get back to normal life.

Hot water leaks can rapidly put your power bill through the roof. Leaks hiding in the back of the hot water cupboard can cause significant damage to the cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed asap, the cost can become more expensive by the hour.

When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Runciman urgent plumbers right away. We will get the hot water working again promptly. If there is a large amount of water leaking, turn off the water at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.

If you need a replacement hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best option for your budget, needs and location. If the whole hot water system needs improvements, our plumbers can schedule to do that in a timely manner as well.

Burst Pipes Sorted Fast

The pipes in your house are a generally unseen but key part of your daily life. Large or small, underground, within the walls or the roof, they carry clean water to you and take the used stuff away.

Usually, you don’t even recall them until something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is usually a serious problem that must be sorted urgently before your home, your possessions or even your health are damaged or destroyed.

As soon as a leak is found, give our team a ring, and our urgent plumbers will be on their way rapidly. We’re waiting to answer 24/7. Before they arrive, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the house to prevent further leaking.

How did my pipe burst?

Pipes can fail and begin to leak for a variety of reasons. If you own an older home, they might simply be old and past their use-by. If you live in a very cold region, the pipework may have frozen and cracked. In a new house, there could be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals may have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Once the on call plumber arrives, they can locate the problems and repair them in a expeitious and professional manner.

We Have You Covered

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

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

Many customers over the years have told us how frustrating it is to have a dripping or defective tap. You may not even notice the drip during the daytime, but at 3am when it is resounding throughout your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it is a serious issue.

It’s not only annoying drips though. Leaks can run up your water bill, and also your power bill if it’s hot water. Not only that, if water is getting down into the cabinetry or onto the floor and causing damage, that little tap leak can end up causing a lot of expensive damage.

Whether you simply need a washer, or an entire replacement faucet, our on call plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are well stocked with parts and carry a modest selection of replacement taps and faucets to select from if needed. If we do not have the tap you want, we can put in an interim tap until we find the style you want.

From big to small, our Runciman urgent plumbers can fix any plumbing crisis. As well as taps, we offer a wide selection of urgent and non-urgent plumbing services.

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some sleep?

If the drip is not bad enough to need repairing right this moment, you can put a folded tea towel or sponge beneath it to minimise the noise. Alternatively tie some twine around the tap spout sufficient to touch the base of the sink, so that the drip runs down instead of falling.
