Frequently Asked Questions - Important

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 water is leaking, turn the water off at the nearest access point and then at the mains valve outside. If you can’t find the main shutoff valve or a tap to the fixture, then turn on the cold faucets inside and out to help depressurise the pipework and minimise the leak.

Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a call, whatever the day or time is. We will be there promptly to fix the leak.

While waiting for the plumber to arrive, remove any important items close to the leak, and mop up any water or put a container to catch any drips. If you have turned the mains water off, also switch off the heating for the hot water 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.

The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.

Blocked Drains Hassles

Our Runciman emergency plumbers realise that a obstructed drain can be a serious health hazard that needs attending to immediately. That’s why we have our urgent plumbing service.

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

Whether the toilet is overflowing, the sink won’t drain, or the stormwater drain is flooding the garden, we’ll be at your abode rapidly to solve the issue. Our experienced plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and tidy up the mess.

All our vans are well equipped, so we can normally fix everything right then and there. In the rare case that we can’t, we’ll temporarily solve the complication to minimise further damage and return with what is needed as soon as we can.

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 Get Caught Without Hot Water

Hot Water System Leaks

We normally take having hot water for granted, until it isn’t functioning correctly. Time to put muddy kids in the shower? Want a good soak to warm up after a wintery day? Got a sink-full of of dishes to finish off? It’s awkward to have a proper wash when the water is lukewarm.

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

Leaks in your hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your home. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for about thiry percent of the average household’s power bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your wallet very swiftly.

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

If the old hot water cylinder is not fixable, our helpful team can help in finding the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, our plumbers can organise improvements so you’ll soon be enjoying life again.

Burst Pipes Sorted Promptly

The pipes in your residence are a largely hidden but integral part of your everyday life. Big and little, in the ground, within the wall or the roof, they bring clean water to you and take the dirty stuff away.

Usually, people do not even recall them unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a serious problem that must be sorted urgently before your home, your possessions or even your well-being are damaged or ruined.

As soon as you find a leak or burst pipe, get hold of our urgent plumbers right away. Our team are waiting to assist Runciman residents right now. Whilst waiting for us to get there, it may help to turn off the water to the house.

Why did my pipe burst?

There are a range of reasons why pipes and taps might fail. If you live in a extremely cold location, they may have frozen and split. They may just be old and past their use-by. The pipes might not have been adequately sealed to begin with. Tree roots may invade subterranean pipes.

When the emergency plumber is present, they will isolate the problems and repair them in a speedy and expert manner.

All Taps Handled

Tapware Problems Resolved

Do you live with a faucet that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cabinets, or is simply broken?

A lot of clients over the years have mentioned how frustrating it can be to live with a dripping or busted tap. You may not even be aware of the drip during the day, but at 3am when it’s echoing around your home like tapdancing elephants, suddenly it is a sigificant problem.

As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not let the bills rise even further, or possibly cause damage to your residence, contact our emergency plumber straight away.

Whether you simply need a washer, or a whole new tap, our emergency plumbers have got what you need. All our vans are fully equipped with parts and carry a small selection of new taps and faucets to select from if required. If we don’t have the tap you need, our plumber can install a temporary faucet until we locate what you need.

From big to small, our Runciman urgent plumbers can do it all. As well as taps, we provide a broad range of emergency and day to day plumbing services.

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

If it’s not aggravating enough to need fixing right this moment, you can place a folded cloth or sponge underneath it to minimise the racket. Or knot a length of string around the faucet aerator sufficient to rest on the base of the sink, so that the drips slide down instead of falling.
