Frequently Asked Questions - Important

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 still leaking, turn off the water at the nearest service valve and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t locate the water main valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold taps inside and out to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Once you have stopped the problem from worsening, give our emergency plumber a ring, any hour of the day or night. They’ll be there rapidly to resolve the problem.

While you wait for our plumber to arrive, start cleaning up any water, put a container to catch any drips, and remove valuable things from the area. If the mains 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

We know a blocked pipe can be a major problem. Whether it’s the ensuite sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged drain is seldom a happy circumstance. That’s why our team of urgent plumbers are ready to deal with your plumbing emergency.

Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very quickly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the issue yourself with a plunger. If that isn’t possible though, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.

Whether it’s the kitchen sink that will not drain, or a blockage in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across your yard, our same day Runciman plumbers will efficiently locate the problem and fix it so that life can get back to normal.

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

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 System Issues

We generally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning properly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Deperately want a good soak to defrost after a chilly day? Have a sink-full of of dishes to deal with? It’s hard to have a good clean when the water is not hot.

When your hot water is not giving you that warm feeling, you need it remedied promptly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is barely warm or boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it remedied quickly so your life can get back to normal.

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a huge amount, and may cause major damage to your house. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating often accounts for about thiry percent of your home’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause major harm to your pocket very quickly.

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

If you need a new hot water cylinder, our plumbers can assist in picking a suitable solution for your budget, needs and area. If the entire hot water system needs upgrading, our plumbers can organise to do that in a opportune fashion as well.

Burst Pipes Solved Quick

The pipes in your residence are a largely hidden but indispensible part of everyday activities. Large or small, underground, in the wall or the roof, they carry fresh water to your home and take the used stuff away.

Usually, people never even recall them until something goes wrong. But when a leak is destroying the walls, it’s generally a major problem that needs to be fixed immediately before your house, your belongings or even your health are damaged or ruined.

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

Why did the pipe burst?

Pipes can break down and begin to leak for many reasons. If you live in an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live somewhere very cold, they might have iced up and ruptured. In a new home, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Underground joins could have been grown into by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.

Our same day plumbers will identify and repair the damaged pipes or leaks quickly and precisely.

From Washers to Full Tap Replacements

Taps Dripping Or Leaking?

Do you have a problematic faucet? One that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just plain broken?

A lot of clients over the years have told us how aggravating it can be to have a dripping or defective faucet. You might not even be aware of the drip during the daytime, but in the small hours when it’s resounding around the house like a herd of stampeeding wildebeest, suddenly it’s a serious issue.

Not only is the sound frustrating, but a dripping or leaking faucet can escalate your bills through the roof, especially if it is the hot water. Don’t waste money and possibly cause long term damage to your house, call us now.

From replacement washers to completely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers carry everything they need on hand to halt your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you need a replacement, or can put in a temporary one if needed.

As well as providing Runciman with urgent plumbing of all kinds, we are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. Day or night, no job is too big or little.

The drips are keeping me up at night, how can I temporarily stop them to get some sleep?

Find a piece of twine of some type, and knot it onto the faucet spout so that it hangs down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and flow off quietly.
